It's a beautiful day and instead of taking you to the garden, I'm going to give you a little tour of the Isle of Man. Starting in the village of Laxey we'll visit King Orry's Grave, a 5000 year old stone tomb. It has two parts that are separated by a modern road and both sites are plonked down in the middle of a residential area.
From there we head north and visit the beaches of the Point of Ayre and Blue Point. You'll see lighthouses and stretches of beach with barely a soul in sight.
Driving south we wind our way around the Devil's Elbow, where local superstition has it that you can't speak or make noise while you're traveling around it. Above it sits an unexcavated neolithic tomb that I'm sure has something to do with the superstition.
Peel Castle was built by the Vikings and its beautiful ruins stand on Saint Patrick's Isle. I have a little mishap with my keys in the rocks there and afterwards we have a walk around the castle walls. The interior is mainly ruins and the castle is said to be haunted by the ghost of a black dog -- the Moddey Dhoo.
We finish up our drive around the Island with a climb to another ancient burial site -- the Meayll hill circle above Port Erin. It's composed of 12 individual stone tombs that were built in a circle about 5000 years ago.

I have lived on the Isle of Man all my life and I still manage to appreciate how beautiful it is.
Went here from TedEd
DON'T DROP 🔑 AGAIN PLEASE HI FROM SAN DIEGO CALIFORNIA USA
I would love to see more on the Isle of Man!
Part of the reason the US is missing a soul, the oldest ruin we have has rebar sticking out of it.
Yes please.
Lovely place
I was born there
I visited the Isle in the late ‘80s to participate in an archaeological dig at Peel Castle with a group of fellow students. It was beautiful then and it looks just as beautiful now in your video. I’m hoping to revisit your wonderful land in the future to show my wife and children just how great the scenery and the Manx people are. Also experienced the excitement of the TT Races...WOW!
Interesting. Wondered after watching gardening for a few years, about the Island itself. Thank you, now we know.
No wonder you love it. What an enchanting place to live. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Beautiful and interesting to learn a little about the Isle Of Man and where you live. Would like to see more of this fascinating place in future videos. Thank you so much for the tour. :-)
Hello Tanya, I am so glad that I found your video. My brother and his partner live in Ramsey and I am waiting for the lockdown to end so that I can visit them . I am from Belgium and I have been to the IOM a few times---a lovely place. I have been to most of the places in this video and it really brings back so many happy memories. Thank you.

Tanya I've just enjoyed watching you and Josh's day out around the Isle of Man. Thank you both for sharing this beautiful place with us. I have never been to the island and really never leave my home in Northern Ireland but when this dreadful coronoviris situation is under control I will look forward to going there with my sister, brother and grown up nephews. We are going to celebrate by visiting a place that looks as beautiful as Ireland. God bless you both and keep you safe. Love v
