In this second half of our time exploring Isle of Man we checked out the largest operating waterwheel in the world, hunted for fairy doors in picturesque Castletown and dined on some traditional Manx food!

  1. I visited the island in the 1960,s with my parents, stayed in Douglas. My Dad was a keen motorcyclist and we ended up going to watch the TT (Tourist Trophy) I enjoyed it too as I was, at aged 12, in love with Giacomo Agostini and Mike Hailwood ahhhh happy days!

  2. The "Chips and Cheese" dish is the type of dish common in countries with a past involving poverty so simple meals are appreciated (Cornish Pastie, Lancashire Hotpot, etc etc).

  3. In all the travel videos I’ve watched on the Isle of Man , nobody ever visits joey on top of the mountain looking down over his kingdom

  4. interesting vids for a newcommer to the isle. helpful intro. to the ilse for me,noannoying music backgrounds like other vid blogs usually do.Cheers!!

  5. In the 1970's and 80's most pubs in northern England held a meat raffle. My local used to hold a quiz every friday with the prize being a hamper of meat. A few pubs in working class areas still keep up this tradition

  6. This was my first time seeing one of your postsl In the videos, did I hear you to say that you're from VA? If so, me too! I rode both the electrical and the steam trains. When in Ramsey, I think I heard the man say we could see Scotland across the way (12 miles across the water?), only the ferries weren't running then. I hated to be that close and not be able to go there-due to the time of year and money! I ate queenies in Peel-good stuff! Castletown was a favorite, as was Cregneash-not everyday that you can say that you sat somewhere that Prince Charles had once been! I did love the hustle and bustle in Douglas, perhaps I will stay there some next time. But, I loved staying in Port Erin-truly a lovely place and lovely people! 🙂

  7. I really enjoy how you create a contrast and relationship between modern culture/pop culture and historical artifacts and old stuff: like naming mining carts "Donkey Kong carts". It's just grand!

  8. 16:10: Ponnies should not be miners. I totally agree! Mechanisation of mines is one of the best things that ever happened to animals. Traditionally, you had horses, mules, and donkies that entered the mine when they were young and never saw the light of sun again. Their whole life was a dark, sad, hard life… and a short one! Engines and motors in mines saved them from all that, although it also meant that there hardly work animals anywhere anymore.

  9. We eat kippers in Sweden too, here they are called böckling. More Swedes probably eat that than surströmming, actually. And even more eat pickled herring. Now I really want to go to Isle of Man! Thank you for your joy of exploration, it´s contagious!

  10. At 8:00 you said it looks like San Francisco, and at 8:13 you are standing in Victoria Street, which was part of the Upper Douglas Cable Tramway route, which was based on the one in San Francisco. Spooky. Or, you're a genius.

  11. As someone born and bred on the IOM, I can assure you that chips cheese and gravy is not the national dish. It looks more like a Manx version of putine. Kippers, queenies and Loghtan lamb would be more like it. I also had the unfortunate experience of having been at King Williams College, that "school of wizardry" opposite Hango Hill. Still, glad to see you found some places off the usual tourist trail, and really enjoyed both videos. I lived in Japan for 7 years as well, so looking forward to seeing some of your Japan videos, and if you ever get to Australia after Covid, there are plenty of wallabies near where we live now.

  12. The answer to your two taps dilemma is a simple one, there is a plug and you put it in the plug hole and then fill the sink to the exact temperature you want and hey presto no scalding hot or freezing cold. This really does seem to completely bamboozle Americans so you are definitely not alone in finding this a mystery. Really enjoying your vlogs they are very entertaining.

  13. To find wallabies you need to go up the curraghs

    We aren't in an ocean we are in a sea

    Trams are pulled by horses

    Dealz sells stuff for £1.20 to cover for shipping

    The Isle of Man has NO cities just towns and villages

    Snaefell is pronounced snayfell

    The Laxey wheel still operates infact it's the biggest working waterwheel in the world

  14. To be fare 😂😂😂😂 you did ask a 16 year old hahahahahah if he had been older you probably would have ended up with something nicer!

    Then again, chips and gravy is big in Australia and I love it! Will 100% be adding cheese now after seeing this haha

  15. Next time you travel and ask someone what they would eat coming back to the place. I would avoid the 16 year olds! Try someone a little older with a more developed palate. 😂

  16. Very condescending about the water taps (not fawcets btw)

    See the metal circular thing on a chain ? It's a plug and it goes in the hole in the sink so both taps can be turned on and hot and cold water mixed to your favourite temperature – Easy
