No it isn't. It is below the first div.
What you see is the *contents* of the second div appearing to the right of
the *contents* of the first div. These two lots of *contents* have been
removed from the normal flow, because they are floated, and will naturally
stack up next to each other. Turn borders on (in different colours) for the
various divs and you will see what is hapenning.
