 Look at this breakfast spread in the morning. Porridge, fried egg, cheese, coffee, sausage. More sausages, more cheese, bread. This is not a buffet. This is just for us. We better go eating. Three, two, one. Wow. Ah, here's our chef for breakfast. Hello. Bye, bye, bye. Thank you. Here is the best. So nice. I like when somebody is making me breakfast. I've been known to make a breakfast or two in my time. Good morning, guys. Welcome back to our Guinness World Record attempt to become the youngest pair to circumnavigate the globe. Bye, motorcycle. We're here in. Where are we? Wait a minute. Wait a minute. I don't know where we are. Let me just check on the map. We're here in the city of Canada in Azerbaijan. We just had a beautiful breakfast staying in this little bit of a strange hotel in the middle of an industrial area. But what turned out to be really, really nice. This hotel was normally built at a time where this area here boomed. So a lot of workers were actually staying in this hotel. But it was really cool because we met as well as some workers in the morning and yesterday night. And I felt like being part of it. At the moment, they said they only have six permanent workers living there. And they have like a lot of rooms there. Mostly the workers are working on like the oil and gas fields. I think one of the workers told us that he was working for BP actually. Apparently they have a shipyard where they are doing repairs, maintenance, and building big container ships and oil tankers. This is the big shipyard here. Cool. And the guy told us yesterday that they pull the ships out of the water in order to work on them. Absolutely crazy. So anyway, we have our first proper days ride here in Azerbaijan. So let me show you where we're heading today. So we are here. And today we're going to be joining up with the M4 road before turning off to a smaller road to reach the town of Kabala near the north border to Georgia. Yes, we're heading up to the north of Azerbaijan to go to the mountains for a nice camping experience. Although the weather doesn't really look that good, to be honest. So we'll have to see how it is when we get there. Otherwise we'll probably take a room. The area we have chosen to stay tonight is apparently a really beautiful area. There's some mountains, there's nature. So I can't wait to see this part of Azerbaijan. Pugimab says it will take us four hours and it's already 10 30 years. So better hit the road. Let's go. First fuel up in Azerbaijan. What's the price gonna be? Look how big it is. Yeah. Oh, I think somebody is helping us. Are we back to just sitting on the bike and chilling? Yeah, it looks like it. Here? Yeah, okay. 92, yes, thank you. Full? Perfect, full, full, thank you. One manat per litre. One manat. Oh, it's good. Good price, yeah. Whoa. That's like 50 pence. Yeah, yeah. Do you remember, thank you? Sok-sa-ol. Sok-sa-ol. So we're just coming inland now and leaving the Caspian Sea. Oh, look at this car with all these onions on it. Onions on the roof. And I thought I'd share some facts about the Caspian Sea because it's actually super interesting. Is that a London taxi? Hold on a minute. That is literally a London taxi, but like a white one. That's cool though. No way. Does that mean that Azerbaijan has London taxis as their taxis as well? So there's always this big debate as to whether the Caspian Sea is a sea or a lake. And after looking it up, it kind of seems like it's a bit of both. Or perhaps you could say that it's turning from one to the other because originally the Caspian Sea was part of the Tethys Sea and was connected to the oceans. The Caspian Sea and the Black Sea and the Mediterranean all connected together. But that was cut off. I can't remember exactly when. I think around 30 million years ago. Basically making the Caspian Sea the largest inland body of water in the world. It's actually the second deepest inland body of water behind Lake Baikal. But it is absolutely massive. It contains more than 40% of all the lake water in the world. And it's nearly five times bigger than Lake Superior. I think this camera is broken. It's just flashing like crazy. Oh! Did I catch it? No, I don't think so. It's not here? Cause I was like trying to catch it. It's a bit too dangerous to go back and try and find it. This road is just really, really crazy, busy and fast. So we're gonna continue without the door. Yeah, I mean, it's like, it's really dangerous. I don't like it. Anyway, this front camera is like really on the end of its life because it keeps turning off all the time. So I don't know. I think we might need to replace the front camera with another one. Anyway, there are some things about the Caspian Sea that really make it seem like a lake now than a sea. So its main inflow is the River Volga, which is fresh water. And that is 80% of the Caspian Sea's inflow. And actually in the northern part of the sea, it is mostly fresh water. And even in the south, it is still only a third of the salinity of the ocean. And actually the level of the lake is not at sea level. It's actually 27 meters below sea level. Since it's been cut off, it has been slowly getting lower and lower and lower. They predict that the sea level is gonna drop in this century by a further 10 to 20 meters. So you could say really that the Caspian Sea was a sea, but is slowly becoming a lake. Really interesting. There you go, mystery solved. We found the perfect lunch break stop. So Bumblebee is just parked up there, safe and sound. And then we are sitting just there. And look how nice this park is. The perfect bench just for us. Oh, we have such a nice lunch today because we actually saved up a lot of leftovers from the hotel last night. So this was part of our dinner yesterday and look how much is left. Like the whole tupper is full of buckwheat. Tastes absolutely amazing. It's super healthy. I love it. Cucumber and tomatoes, amazing. And now here it goes more and more crazy. This is our egg, some leftover sausage, some cheese and more cheese. I can't even believe it. Like that looks amazing, hey? A big waggy tail, hey? With a big waggy tail. Yeah, I know if only we could take home all the puppies that we see, hey? Started a little bit to a rain. Just a tiny bird. I really hope that will change. Got a few different fruits and veggies. Yeah, yeah. There was one guy who was like passing like a three grapes to a driver. It's a taster. What is this thing here? All of these like colorful things. Dried fruit. Ah, like a sort of... You remember in Kazakhstan? So what do they call this? Pastilla. Pastilla. It's a fruit jam dried, it's very good. Oh, look at this. It's a little bit steep here. Okay. Look, there's buffalo. Whoa. Hello guys. Haven't seen buffalo in ages. I can't even remember the last time we saw a buffalo. And then suddenly in Azerbaijan, it's like, oh, they've got buffalo here. Yeah, crazy, hey? So the rain is just starting to get heavier. And it's a pretty bad day to lose the GoPro door. Basically nothing to protect it now. So we're going to have to get creative with some tape. I think I have to take off the media mod as well for now. The whole way is pretty much road works. So it's super muddy, it's super slippery. It's just a really, really bad ride. I checked yesterday already and I know that in the town we're going to, there's pretty much one accommodation we can afford. We haven't booked anything yet, but I think we're gonna scrap the idea of camping because it's just too wet. Once we reach the town, we will check out if we can book the room, try out and get comfy. Look at the condition of Bumblebee. No. No, look at Bumblebee. Everything is so messed up. Oh, I hate this road. So we've just stopped here in this beautiful forest area. Look at this. Chai? Chai? Okay. Da, da. Spasiba. Good job. I'm listening. Ha ha ha ha. What is that? What is that? Haqira. Haqira. Haqira, zelini, miaso, sir. Oh. It is... Zelini. Zelini. Gris. Gris. Gris. Herbs. Herbs. Okay. Like this kind of herbs. Yes, this kind of herbs. Onion, coriander, onion, onion. Cool. Okay. Cool. We're coming from England and Germany. And you? Where you come from? I am from Azerbaijan. I am local. Okay, you're local. Which city you live in? Baku? Oh, nice. Beautiful city. Not a bad place to stop for a break. It's magical here. The forest is beautiful. And it has really like this festival vibe here. We started the day and it was like the desert. Yeah. And now, a hundred miles later, look at this place. So cool. We're finally out of the desert. Ha ha ha. Soxal. Soxal. Bit of sugar? Definitely. Bit of sugar? Maybe two. Okay, two. It's not a good combination between road and construction and the rain. I'm covered in mud. Bumblebee's covered in mud. It's just not good riding conditions today. So nice to have a little sit down, have a hot drink and recuperate. Cheers. Gabala. Gabala. Gabala, yes. Gabala, very, very good. Very good. Good, yes. Family just next to us, they just gifted us a whole plate full of these. I'm going to try. Very good. Very good. Very good. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. So good. So good. We ordered some extra ones because they're so good. No, we will take home. Yeah, thank you so much for those. See you guys. Bye bye. Okay. Okay. Okay. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Cheese. Yes. Your name and very good name. Name is Sevil. Sevil. Sevil. Nice to meet you all. Very nice Sevil. Baby, I thought, baby. No? Baby. No, no. No, no. No space. No space. Baby, no. No. No. Baby, no. Baby, no. Thank you. Thank you. Bravo. Very good. North Africa, Senegal, Brazil, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Turist, Hamza, Kabbalah! We are very, very good Azarebs! Very good! Sokzal! Sokzal! Bye-bye! Ok, Doki Atishok here. That was a nice stop. People here in Azerbaijan are so friendly. Wow! Check out this area here. Look at all this beautiful lighting. Nice! I can see even some tents here. Look! Our people camping here. That's awesome. It's just so nice to be in a forest. Yeah, yeah. We haven't been in a forest in ages. Yeah, really, really nice vibe for sure. Yeah, this whole area has a really cute feel to it with all these little roadside restaurants where they're just cooking on the open fire. Yes. Oh, it's just beautiful here. Beautiful. So we had time as well to check the accommodation and luckily it was still available. So we just booked it and we have actually just 22 minutes left. And this accommodation was pretty much the cheapest place I could find. It's 19 pounds. Which is still quite expensive, but the town Kabbalah is a very touristic town for people coming out from Baku. So it's good that we found a place that was at least affordable for us. Yeah, I mean I saw places like for like 300 pounds, you know. Come on, cow. What are you doing? Come on. So yeah, 20 minutes to go. Let's do it. And hopefully with no more rain. Fingers crossed. Hey guys, editing Oli here.

So we're arriving in Kabbalah and it's raining. Yeah, it's raining really bad. But I guess it means that we made the right decision to book the room. It'd be a shame if we booked the room and then suddenly like the sun came out and it was beautiful and nice. That's true. But no, this definitely reaffirms why we're taking a room because it is terribly wet today. Anyway, it'll be better tomorrow. Yes. But it's so funny here. You can see on the right and left the walls. Here in Azerbaijan they really like to build nice walls. Yeah, they've got a thing about walls. Yeah, definitely. Like it's not just like a cheap, just a cheap concrete wall or something. I really like even the street lights here with the black and the gold. Yeah, this is a nice touch, isn't it? Charming. Well, look at the mountains behind. Wow. Totally covered in clouds. Totally covered. Can't see anything. No. It's quite nice though. Apparently the place we're staying is just in here. Oh. I think this is it. Is it number two? Number two. Oh, cool. I met with a giant wall, a nice wall as well. Look at the entrance to this place. It's like, it's grand. Okay, awesome. Thank you. What's your name? Your name? Bachman. Bachman. Bachman, Oliver. Oliver. Oliver. Nice to meet you. Hello kitty. Good evening guys. We made it. Tell me you're alive. Yes, and check out the awesome place we're staying tonight. Look at the size of this room, guys. It's absolutely massive. This is like a whole chalet just for us. So we've got our workstation area here. Charging station over here. And that's not all because through here we've got a separate bedroom. This is living in luxury. Yeah, it was a really nice surprise actually to open the door and to see something like this here, you know, for the night. It's amazing. Better than the tent in the rain. It was a really short but hectic day today. A lot of rain, a lot of mud. So I'm really glad that we reached somewhere safe and cozy and just have a nice rest here. And we've got our awesome, I don't remember the name of what they're called, but these like pancake-y things with herbs and meat inside. They're pretty good. And that's it from us today.

Check out how the guys from the custom office secured our drone. So they did like a little metal string around here that you can't open it. And also they put a sticker on here to make sure that we are not naughty and flying without any permission. Wow, it is absolutely crazy raining right now. Oh my God, it's horrible. We've got our stuff on the line out here drying. Cold. Cold, eh? Yes. We are really in the mountains now and the weather is terrible. I hope it gets better by tomorrow.
