Day 3 -- East Africa, East African Rift Valley







The next leg of our journey is the East African Rift Valley.



The Rift Valley is a diverging boundary that is located in East Africa. A rift valley is a spot where two plates are moving apart. This valley is actually being filled with water from oceans, seas, and rivers.


Africa is splitting apart at this point and the plates are moving away from their once known continent.
