Weekly photo challenge: Culture

Agneash and the Laxey Wheel
It was much sunnier yesterday so I walked along Ham and Egg Terrace, past the Laxey Wheel and the Salmon Centre to Agneash which is a beautiful little village high above Laxey. The village leads onto open landscape to Snaefell Mountain.

The island is taking a battering today with rough seas, cancelled ferries, snow grinding most of the island’s roads to a halt and power cuts. Luckily for us in Laxey at sea level, we don’t have any snow that’s sticking yet or any power cuts like other parts of the island but disruption does mean a postponed celebration party with friends for tonight. Hopefully, things will calm down before my daughter returns to the island from university on the mainland on Monday or the ferry will be either cancelled or a very unpleasant crossing.
