SEVEN SISTERS, EAST SUSSEX


The Seven Sisters of the chalk headland of Beachy Head near Eastbourne stretch from Birling Gap in the east to Cuckmere Haven in the west. These sheer white cliffs drop to a depth of 200 metres while their tops undulate softly. Until they were worn away by the sea (the last one disappeared in 1854) the Seven Sisters had seven brothers known as the Seven Charles. This picture was not taken by me (of course) but by a professional phtographer. But I really wanted to share it with you, I just love it! So next time you go to England, go to Eastbourne (Mind you nice place to visit too) and walk along the beaches to Seven Sisters, bring a picnic with you, wear comfortable shoes and off you go.....
