A Trip to the Isle of Man

Anna and I have just got back from a trip to the Isle of Man. Morgan didn’t come with us this time as he’s 18 years old and has better things to do – namely cat and house sitting and going to school! We went to visit Anna’s Mum, but did plenty of fun tourist activities too.

We had dinner on a steam train, watched dolphins, ran part of the coast path, spent a day on various trams and summited Snaefell. We walked through a glen, went shopping, straddled the Iapetus Suture, visited a wetland nature reserve, wandered around various little towns and villages and went to the garden centre. We visited various cafĂ©s and ate plenty of cakes, scones, pizza and of course ate Anna’s Mum out of house and home too! We even had an unexpected night in a Liverpool hotel on the way home as well.

I’ll write more about each part of the trip soon, but for now, here’s a little video that sums up the trip.
