 Bye bye Jean, we're coming! Stampteen baby! Woooo! The next day! Hey! Good morning guys, welcome back to our Guinness World Record Attempt to become the youngest pair to circumnavigate the globe by motorcycle! We're here in the city of Baku in Azerbaijan and today we're going to... So we just jumped in a taxi here from a local service called Bolt and this is our taxi driver and it says on the GPS that the ferry port is just over an hour away. So in one hour we're going to be reunited with Bumblebee. So the ferry port in Baku is actually not in the city, it's an hour down the coast next to a small town called Alat so that's where we're headed. We are really excited to see Bumblebee again so better hit the road, let's go! That right there is one of the UNESCO World Heritage sites of the city, the Maiden Tower as part of Baku's old city. It's a really beautiful city. We've just given the guys here in the window our documentation so now they're looking up on the system to see if they can find Bumblebee. He was asking us what the name of the ship that Bumblebee was shipped on and I was like I had no idea the name of the ship. After he looked it up he told us it was Azerbaijan! I could have guessed that. What is written here? Bill of Lading! Remember that from Brazil? Bill of Lading, I hate shipping I tell you. So we got our ticket now and now we have to go through the security and then pick up Bumblebee. So I can wait in this waiting room here, Oli just went out and tried to rescue Bumblebee and let's see how long it takes. Every visitor should remember the following, don't enter areas where cargo handling operations are in. Don't enter premises where entry is prohibited. Manap? Manap. Thank you. I'm not sure what I'm going to say about that. So customs process is done and I've also just purchased the mandatory insurance for Azerbaijan. So basically they said you can just go in, get Bumblebee, apparently the keys are still on the bike. So I'm just walking around and I've got to try to find Bumblebee and I'm ready to drive out. So far the process has taken about an hour and a half. So it's nearly midday now, they're not too bad. If I can just drive out now then we'll be all good. Ready to hit the roads of Azerbaijan. It's a pretty big place but the good thing is that we've got the Sizap tracker inside Bumblebee. So I can just go on the app and I can see exactly where Bumblebee is. So at the moment I'm just basically heading towards that point. Bumblebee can't hide from me. I'm coming. I'm coming Bumblebee. But it's a little bit nerve wracking to be honest because I read reports on Ioverlanda that this port is notorious for people stealing stuff from the vehicles whilst they're waiting to be collected and Bumblebee has been here in the port for a week. I don't know if you guys saw the previous episode where we dropped Bumblebee off but this is what she looked like. There we go. So not very secure really to be honest. Hello. Hi. How are you? England. England, yes. Collection motorcycle. Yes. Yes. Thank you. Thank you. And keep in mind that those bags and panniers and everything, none of that is locked on. You can literally just take it off and walk out so it's a little bit nerve wracking. Anyway I can see Bumblebee up ahead. Let's see how she looks. I think everything's there. One pannier, one box, two helmets, spiderweb, tank bag, yeah. It looks like everything is here which is amazing. So they said the keys would be in the ignition but they're not so I think I'm gonna go to the office and see if I can get the keys. It's 1.30 so Ollie has been away for two hours now. I have no idea what takes so long but I'm just sitting here on the couch and waiting patiently. Luckily this room has air conditioning. So that's pretty good. Alrighty guys. Just called me. Goodbye. Goodbye. Azerbaijan police. Goodbye to Allat ferry port. Goodbye. It was a nice time here. Was it? Oh we are finally out. Bumblebee is free. Yes. Oh man that was a bit of a process I can tell you. It's now 3.40. I think we arrived here at about 10.30 so it's taken us five hours to get Bumblebee free of the port. That's absolutely insane. It was like I had to go to one window. I had to get the customs. I had to go to Bumblebee and then I had to go to another window and get some more documentation done. It was just endless but unfortunately I couldn't film most of it because when I was watching the induction film which I filmed the induction film and then it was like no unauthorized videos to be taken and I was like whoops I'm actually like filming now. Yeah it was pretty insane with the filming they were really honoured like as soon as they saw me like with the phone or with the camera they came like towards me and said like no camera no filming. I just managed to get in like one little vlog whilst I was walking through like the open port area where there was like no one around. So in total I paid 25 manats for the mandatory insurance for Azerbaijan which is about £13. The temporary import permit and all of the customs process was free but then I had to pay around $20 to exit the port and then just at the last minute before I went through the barrier they were like oh and it's $10 per day for every day the bike has been inside the port so that turned out to be $60 so in total around $100 for everything included. Actually the bit that took the most time and the bit that was the most difficult was actually the drones again can you believe it? At first they were basically like do you have any drones and I was like yeah I have drones and then they were like you're not allowed drones. So I looked up online and I said to them there should be no restrictions on drones it should be absolutely fine. I read like the Azerbaijan government advice on the on drones and the advice was that if you wanted to operate a drone you needed to obtain a license. You needed permission in order to fly a drone so I said to them no no you just need permission to fly the drone I don't need permission to bring the drone in look I'm not gonna fly it just let me bring the drones in and then they were like for ages calling people back and forth like I'm not sure eventually they said to me okay you can keep the drone but we have to like put a customs seal on it and basically they took some wire and they like completely closed our drone box and put like a sticker over it so that you know if I open it they're gonna see that I've opened it. They said when I leave Azerbaijan I have to show them the declaration and then show them that the drone bag hasn't been opened and therefore the drone hasn't been used. Yeah well it took so long but anyway at the end we made it through and bumblebee is here and we can explore Azerbaijan. Despite the time we're still gonna try to squeeze in a little Azerbaijani attraction on our first day riding in the country so let me show you guys where we're headed. So we are here and today we are heading up to Kobustan and then taking this road towards the mud volcano tourist park somewhere around here. Yeah it's just eight miles away from here is a super cool area with some mud volcanoes which I've never seen before in my life so that's gonna be super cool but I'll tell you guys more about them when we get there. Mud volcanoes tourism complex 19 kilometers straight so this area Kobustan is also famous for ancient rock carvings and ancient cave art so apparently around this area they have more than 6,000 pieces of prehistoric art dotted all over the landscape here. Wow and they dating back to 40,000 years so like really really really early human art. Wow. Very cool. We're really out in the Azerbaijani desert now look at this. It looks so cool here. I'm so glad that the government just put this road here in so the road is perfect and you can really enjoy the views. Yeah I think up until this year this was just a dirt road and you you had to get a four-wheel drive Jeep from the Kobustan town in order to visit the mud volcanoes but now there's this really nice road here so we can just ride all the way up to them. Even know what a mud volcano is. Something with mud and no rations. We'll find out hey we'll find out. Okay so I think this is like the new tourism complex they're building. Wow but it definitely doesn't look like it's finished. No. Oh my Lord. Oh dog jumping out. Okay. It's okay. It's okay. If that's the tourism complex then where are the mud volcanoes? Good questions. Are they over there maybe? Do you think this one there? Bye bubble bee. So apparently the guys pointed this way the guys who were working on the construction site here and they were like go this way so we're gonna go this way see if we can find some mud volcanoes over here. Anyway we decided to go with our full outfit here because it's mad windy. I feel like an astronaut. Me too. Walking on the moon. Look they're building like a walkway through this whole area. But here they are right in front of us. Show me some mud. Look at that. Okay let's go have a look. Salam. Salam. Whoa look at this. I wonder if we can touch it or not. Wow. Look they're like one two three four. So cool. I'm gonna translate to the guy. Is the mud hot? No not hot. No way. Whoa. So we're not. This is like some free really expensive skin care routine. You like it? Yeah yeah. This is a river of mud. Wow look at this one. There's like literally mud bubbling up from everywhere. That's crazy. Look there's another one here. Whoa that's so cool. So apparently I read that Azerbaijan has the most mud volcanoes of any country in the whole world. They have 350 out of 700 mud volcanoes in Azerbaijan. So I googled like what is a mud volcano and apparently it's like deep in the earth water gets heated up and that water is mixing with all of like the minerals and rocks as it's coming up through like fissures and cracks in the earth and eventually it gets up to the surface through a fault line and just kind of bubbles out. And there's also gas in there as well which is what you can see here. There you go. So when you see it bubbling like this that is actually methane gas coming out of the earth and apparently if you light it it will light on fire. And it's really interesting because actually the name Azerbaijan means land of the holy fire. Wow amazing. You look like you're walking on another planet. Okay. Thank you. Yes of course. Thank you. Oh no problem. Thank you. Thank you. Oli Lavi. Yes. Yes. Yes. I have a card for our YouTube channel. Thank you. If you want to give us your card, we will follow your channel. Yes please do. There's.

Every day ride is on YouTube. Yes you have to subscribe. Thank you so much guys. Oh nice to meet you. Thank you. Thank you. He's with the bike. That was so funny that you're like a whole massive Indian tour group just arrived when we were there. They are so friendly and so interested and jumping on the bike taking photo shoots. They were doing that when we weren't even there. It's so cool. I love it. The fact that every single person came up to me shook my hand and was like I wish you all the best for your trip. And then they gave us like a big clapping as well like everybody clapped for us. It's so kind. Yeah really nice. People are really supportive. But there we go. That's what mud volcanoes look like. Amazing. What a nice surprise. Yeah it's like you live your whole life not knowing anything about mud volcanoes. Not even knowing that mud volcanoes exist and then suddenly you end up in the country of mud volcanoes. And they were really really cool actually. Yeah and some of them were really really big. So now we're going to head back into Gobistan and see if we can find a bite to eat because I am starving. Starving. Starving. Our bread and cheese is not enough anymore. We just stopped here at this cafe to see if we can get some food but they only have fried chicken. But look all these kids around. Say bye bye. Bye guys. And look we gave everybody one of our cards. Everybody has to subscribe. Yes. Thank you. Sok Saol. Ready? Careful. Careful. Oh my god. Bye bye. Bye bye. Wow that's so cute. Unbelievable. No they're all running after us. They're all running after us. Cute. Really cute. Really cute. But anyway no food for us there so we have now booked a room on booking.com which is 19 miles ahead 25 minutes away. And apparently they have a restaurant there at the hotel so I'll have to wait a little bit longer. We have now a load of young new subscribers. Yes. We're getting subscribed by the next generation. Good. So the accommodation is supposed to be just like half a mile down here. Yeah but it seems like a really strange area here. It's like really industrial. Yes. So many kids running around. Hello. How do you look? Montenegro Inn. All random. This is just a random area. Look it's just like an industrial area with warehouses and stuff and then suddenly there's like a little pop-up hotel here. Yeah. Let's see if they have a restaurant or otherwise. Oh we have some noodles. Otherwise we have some noodles. It's not the most exciting thing anymore but... What is this place? No idea. Crazy. But there's actually a swimming pool here in the middle. All right let's see if they have a room that we've booked and let's also see if they have a restaurant. Yeah. Really looks like an abandoned place. Look at this. Ah reception. From England. Thank you. Amazing. This is apparently the national dish. I don't know the name but it's stuffed peppers. What is the name for the national dish? Dolma. And this is the national dish. What's your name? Assad. And your name? Faik. This is Zau. Zau yes. Hello. Thank you so much for your help. And your English is very good. Yes. Your English very good. Good night. Thank you. See you tomorrow. Good evening guys. We made it. Happy in alive. Yeah this turned out to be an awesome place and we just had a beautiful dinner. The feeling was like having a home cooked meal you know. Well you don't have a choice but you really like it. So that was really cool. But anyway I'm super super happy that we have Bumblebee back. We had a really nice first day here in Azerbaijan seeing these amazing mud pools. Oh my god like crazy. So I can't wait to hit the road tomorrow again and explore more of this country. And as well you know being now on our way back actually without any big challenges anymore.
