A church in the heart of the town of Peel, IOM, where only a few of the walls remain. Where some of my ancestors were married: (I'm the blur in the middle of the pic wearing a grey raincoat). They've taken the headstones from the church cemetray and paved the park with them. Lovely, but a bit irreverent-feeling to be walking all over the headstones, IMO.
A steam train. The IOM is a haven of antique trains. On this teeny island you can ride this steam train to all the major cities. There is also a quaint electric train running the length of the island. The e-train has open air cars and is reminiscent of the streetcar in Mister Rogers show. There's also a horse-drawn tram available for those who like their tracks to run slow...
