Douglas Bay, Isle of Man

Anyone coming to the Isle of Man by ferry will be faced by a view of Douglas's waterfront. However, it may not be as sun-blessed as this for everyone or for every visit. My first trip saw the sight dulled by cloud and rain and what you see above is how it looked, and I was leaving after my second visit to the place. The sun was shy for the previous two days and what came on third and last one was taken up with relish before I needed to catch a ferry to Liverpool again.
