That's the. There's like a type of GR that's made out of. And that's kind of what you're doing. No you're not. That puts me off so much. Wait.
What is it? Like father like son. Magnus. Fishing for perch.
Eating apples for everyone. I will get this.
It's not even 6 o' clock in the morning. We are off on a tiny plane to Stockholm. Then to Visby. Oh, luxurious travel. We're getting massage. I can't even hold it straight. Goblin baby. Goblin Gotland.
Maybe we can fight.
Magna. You learned swim a bit with the vest on. How was that?
Good.
You feel safer in the water like that?
Yeah.
Pretty cool. You did a really good job.
Oh, you want to buy over?
We've got one for you at home.
I mean like disc type.
Yeah. All right. Diplomatic. This is fried tofu for vegetarians. Nice. Cross fed and chico from fioco. Check that out. All right. Sunset sups Seal Island.
So everyone can take off their shoes.
So we've come a kilometer on the paddle boards to see all this seal colony. Check out all the seals here. There are hundreds. We've just disturbed them. There's three dead seals here. They've got a lot of bacteria so you shouldn't touch them. Them. We're going to have a short break before making the paddle back. Okay. Getting dark. Time to go. Just check out this many seals. We disturbed them a little bit. See how they're swimming off now. But we got some sentries watching us over here. I bet they'll follow us cuz they're curious. Look at all those. Right now. Halfway back. There's a whole colony following us along. They're curious, aren't they? Nish. You weren't scared? No. Were you scared right now? I was frightened. You were frightened. There's quite a lot of seals weren't there and you're kind of in their territory.
You can go out to seal. We were going hugging the island. Right? So they could go out anywhere. Anywhere.
That was Martin scared her.
They're more scared of us than we are of them.
Right.
So if we just stood up, made some screaming noises a bit. But if you trap them. I was like. I felt like that could be a bit scary.
Hey little guy. Hey little guy. Check out this little dude. You okay mate?
Are you all right mate? It.
Having a nap in the shelter spot. Windy. This is the most southern tip of Gotland. Looking for fossils. This was all marine. It was like a Mediterranean reef here. There's a lot of fossils, particularly plants. Pillar bites things like that. We're going up the marine pile. It's a little bit steep. Nice beach class. Well, we're up in the treetops. Okay. Back to Vanlands to finish the pool, finish the painting before the winter comes. Hey, turkeys. Okay. My dream's coming true. Get the front of this house painted. It's very hard to get this machine up here. Had to sort of hack through the garden here, but see if we can get level. Okay. Who watches tv? Anyway, finally I'm up here getting the front of the house ready for painting and just touching up the edges of the roof. See here, it's hard to see when you're up on a ladder. So just going to touch that up, clear this whole space up. Alrighty. Check that out. Finally got the house green. You should.
We should have made massive curry sausages, you know. Oh, yeah, that's cool too. Like these or even if they're just small. That you have to cut this one off a little. Yeah.
