This morning I would be leaving the Isle of Man by the airport in the south. I had wanted to take the ferry onwards to Belfast but they only run in the summer so I had to book a flight on Eastjet.
The flight was the afternoon so I had the morning to take the historic steam train south to Castletown to see Castle Rushen.
Before leaving we tried to make our way to Marine Gate and a final view of Douglas harbour but it was too far to walk and navigate and we had to run back for our 10am train.
