A mere market town as late as 1850, DOUGLAS was a product of Victorian mass tourism and displays many similarities to Blackpool, just across the water. The seafront vista has changed little since Victorian times, and is still trodden by heavy-footed carthorses pulling trams (May– Sept, from 9am; £2 return). On Harris Promenade the opulent Gaiety Theatre sports a lush interior, and the spruced-up Villa Marina gardens display more Victorian elegance, with their colonnade walk, lawns and bandstand.

My boyfriend and I went to England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland in late June, early July of 2006. When we returned we were engaged! It was a last minute trip that changed our lives and we fell in love with the people and places we visited.
