so we've been in melbourne

oh over a week now 10 days and to be

honest we're pretty happy to be leaving

that wasn't the best place uh that we

visited that's for sure

a lot of it because of our experience

here um

but also the people just weren't very

friendly covert has really really

affected

people's happiness and trust and

the whole vibe here is just not very

cool

we've been to plenty other places that

are just as

covert risky as as here but everyone

gets on with life and is happy and

friendly and here it's just not really

like that it's a

definite um oh there's the bullet the

white people stay away

put your mask up all that sort of stuff

so but what made it less fun was

when we checked in here i had to do a

rapid test

so that's a blood test that you get a

result back in a

hour or so and maurice came back fine

and mine came back reactive

[Music]

i hadn't really looked into it but after

that obviously i googled it all and

there's two things the rapid test tests

for is the

igg and the ig m

and my igm that's if you've got a

current

infection that came back fine

the igg which is if you've had a

infection in the past came back reactive

so that was straight away oh well the

white person's got the disease we're all

going to die

in a bit of panic and then i had to go

and do a swab test

or two swab tests one one day and this

side and the next day in the other side

the problem here in malmo area is that

they don't

have a laboratory a laboratory

laboratory to do swab tests so it had to

get sent to kupang that's

which is an air you know a flight away

so it took a week to get that

and in that time we stayed confined to

the boat which we were fine with because

we had work to do and

we could go still swimming off the boat

but anyway yes we spent a week here in

quarantine our third quarantine in

indonesia

yeah the test came back a few days ago

and it was negative like

obviously sort of negative because first

we did rapid tests

not that long ago we were both negative

if covert is as contagious as

as you know the few mongers of the world

would have one believe

and possibly is marie would have had it

too we

kiss and hug and live and sleep together

and uh if i had it she would have it

it's there's no other way really

and she was clear so and i wasn't

feeling sick i never had a temperature

and all that sort of stuff so yeah it

was

whatever but the whole town well a city

of 150

000 found out you know knew about

because we're the only white people here

so

everyone knew there was one positive

covert case with a white person so it

didn't make it very fun

the officials weren't very friendly and

they didn't really want us here and

and even like the for example you go in

a restaurant

you smile and say hello to the waitress

and they

didn't answer just not saying hello not

a smile just give you the menu

and it's everywhere almost like that

like there's some

nice people like we can't say everyone

was hard but

yeah they seems really everyone was

pretty hard

faced and look and not really happy

in life it's a funny town that's quite a

big city actually but it's just like a

village

that's grown into something and they

never made it a city

there's no central part there's no

you know there's a harbour but there's

no waterfront that they've used there's

no

main road there's no you don't know

there's no feeling of a city it's just

there's not even any supermarkets or big

shops

you know there's just like thousands of

little ones that all sell the same stuff

it's it's a weird place it's like

it's like a little village that just

grew into a 200 150 000 city

without knowing it and the roads and

everything else infrastructure didn't

catch up at all

we're sailing right now we just sailed

off the anchor

but there's there's feds and stuff

everywhere so we've got to keep a bit of

a check out

because the wind's a bit in and out

sometimes we're now we're doing four

knots and before we're doing two knots

and

anyway we're out of here we're heading

west towards sla bombajo komodo it'll be

a couple weeks before we get there we're

just going slowly

what this video is about it's been a bit

of a long intro sorry about that

this video is about our visit to

kalamutu now probably a lot of you have

seen the pictures from this place it's

three different colored lakes on the top

of a volcano

and uh we'd seen them we wanted to go

and see them for ourselves

we had to wait a while but it was worth

it and it was pretty freaking epic

wasn't it yeah yeah for me the

lakes were pretty cool but the fact that

we get to see monkeys right beside us

and baby monkeys with blue eyes that was

even more crazy

yeah because vernon is eight years old

when you see monkeys he's super excited

love monkeys i want to get one on the

boat but she doesn't really want one but

i'm

probably going to smuggle one aboard

anyway then she won't be able to get rid

of it

it was a day of two firsts for me i'd

never been that close to monkeys

and i'd never seen rice paddies live so

pretty hyped and the rice paddies with

the drone footage pretty epic anyway

cut to the movie here you go watch this

it's pretty cool

enjoy jolly good morning to you all

and it's very early it's hardly even

morning here it's barely five o'clock

and marie and i just over here looking

looking pretty sleepy still yeah we're

off on a bit of an adventure today we're

going up to kalamutu

[Music]

pretty cool eh yeah it's the first time

we all see clues of the

monkeys here they're super funny

[Music]

so

[Music]

super cute

[Music]

hard work walking now after living on

the boat for so long

yeah definitely more used to

the boat and the mountain now just six

months

your leg muscle's all gone the legs

it's the breezy breathing

[Music]

so we're up here at the top of kalamutu

it's a thousand

five hundred something or other and it's

the three colorful lakes

as you can see it's totally beautiful

the colors are stunning

look over there there's another lake

over there beautiful one

that's turquoise one down there you can

see oh you can't see much down that way

yeah and there's a bright red one over

here

and uh it's pretty foggy at the moment

it's only about five what is it maybe

nine o'clock in the morning

it's pretty windy and pretty foggy but

we're hoping with the wind

it'll blow over i've already had a

couple of patches where you could see

more

but um if it opens up a bit more i'll

get the drone up and try and get a few

shots for you

because what we've seen so far the

colors are pretty spectacular

but in the meantime we've just been

watching the monkeys they're pretty cool

i've never been that close to monkeys

before

so yeah pretty cool but uh hopefully the

the fog will roll on

what do you reckon

she don't know what reckon means

say in the comments what you think she

her english is a certain level that she

should know what reckon means

what do you think about the situation at

the top of kalamutu mountain

that's cool that's guilty

super different teammate you can say

climate

climate yeah yep say yes it's super

super beautiful to be up and have some

altitude and some

views and feeling the cold again

yeah the climate up here is crazy it

reminds me actually of new zealand this

this well kiwis would know pangas

there's uh like fern trees

the big green fern bushes furry sort of

logs and

yeah it's a lot of moss and a lot of

weird-looking

vegetation that you don't sort of

associate with well

we don't associate with coastal

indonesia so it's pretty cool to see

an amazing belle oh yeah crazy

bird life she didn't bring her uh sound

recorder so you won't have

really really good sound of the bird but

that's what happens when you get up at

four o'clock in the morning

and she is not

the optimal morning person i am a

morning person

yeah as long as it's not that far no

come on

i wake up at nine at eight at seven

what are you doing what are you doing

with my bag

an ocean okay

i dreamed that no one could save

a shelter a whole lot

a light that died with the night

you and i we got

our differences

yet i thought

[Music]

everything is grey inside this narrow

maze

[Music]

oh nothing we run our separate ways

do you ever think about me

or are you busy with someone else

and i we got our

[Music]

differences

[Music]

pain what's the plan

[Music]

everything is

everything has lost
