Image above: Twelve Apostles (rock formation), just off Port Campbell National Park, along the Great Ocean Road, in Victoria, Australia. Unfortunately this rock stack formation is slowly crumbling into the sea. In July 2005 the original 9 rock stacks, was reduced to 8 stacks, as a 50 meter (164 feet) tall rock stack sitting about the middle of the rock formation, fell into the sea. In September 2009 a nearby rock stack, the Three Sisters formation, a smaller rock formation, was also consumed by the sea. Limestone of the Port Campbell geography is harder in top layers than bottom layers. Softer base layers allow initial undermining, that creates overhangs, arches and eventually new stacks. This natural erosion process makes the geography dynamic for tourists and locals alike. A day's drive along the Great Ocean Road, with quick stops along these areas of interest, makes for a pleasant relaxing break in one's routine.
