Yep, we're seeking refuge in a little shelter

We've been here a few days and we haven't filmed anything yet, because we've just been chillin' by the pool, and I dislocated my shoulder

This sounds more serious than it is

If you know her, she does it quite often, like, maybe like once every two months.

Like we were literally just dancing

I just went like this: Yeah!

And I spun her and I actually went-- and she just didn't-- you know like normally most people like, just go with it

She just stayed there like-- and it went *click*. And then she's always telling me to go swing dancing, and I'm like "maybe not"

I-I think you can--you can do it, in a non-dislocating manner. Anyway

We've hired a car for the day, actually for a couple of days

So we're just gonna drive around the island

And show you some of the highlights of the island. Because we really loved when we were here two years ago

And it's a kind of beautiful magical island. We just want you to enjoy seeing it.

*cheery music*

That was so beautiful

I really liked all the butterflies and wildlife, and I saw a really slinky shiny lizard. I did, yeah. It was really exciting.

I'm very easily pleased by shiny things, including lizards. Plus, now I'm soaking wet

including my little shorts

I actually feel quite cool, it's quite nice! I like this! It's not too hot anymore.

I, on the other hand, was in the sunshine taking a lot of photos, practicing with my like

um, filters, trying to get, you know, that like, cloudy effect over the waterfalls, keeping like-- Anyway,

I've got like a sweating upper lip now. Don't zoom in on it!! *Jessica laughs offscreen*

This is why I'm the camerawoman, I make people look nice. You make people look... their worst.

*Jessica offscreen:* Aww. I love you! I'm sorry!

I don't know why, and we're in this really beautiful gorgeous place, and she won't shut up about lenses

And also, I think we could get like the 22 mil for the EFM

so that it fits like directly on the M6...

... works really well short and far... and like it's a crime (?) lens so it'll like be really nice quality...

...and we can put the microphone on the side and then you don't have to worry about that big mic in the room.

In our little banger of a car

The guy rented it to us, like, quite late last night, and it was pretty dark

so we had no idea what it looked like until this morning. We're like, "oh!"

It's all right, it's doing quite well and the most important thing is it's got aircon

We're at the most beautiful beach I think we've both ever been to, isn't it? Yeah, definitely.

This is actually the picture

We came here a couple years ago, and it has been the photo on my laptop screen since then. It's so stunning that we're showing you.

Wow

*music*

Good morning!

So today we have come to one of the big tourist attractions in Langkawi,

which is the Oriental Village Cable Car and Skybridge.

Ooh. This isn't the exciting bit yet. No. But yeah, the cable car is really cool.

It takes 15 minutes, and it takes you all through the jungle and you can look down and see animals.

We saw some monkeys on the way here

Yeah, they were just chillin by the side of the road

But it's already getting quite hot. It's-- yeah. That's the main tune of this whole video: It's getting quite. We're really hot. It's quite hot

*J*: we might have to like, buy clothes/strip off. *C*: Apparently they are having a heatwave, it's hotter than normal.

I don't wanna be in a little glass pod on a big cable when it's getting even hotter

So let's go now. Yes, let's quickly run up. We're gonna quickly run up.

*music*

I love this! This is my favorite kind of adventure theme park ride, because you don't get turned upside down.

We managed to get a pod to ourselves. Yeah.

My gosh

We're on the second little bit. You stopped at a mid-platform

And then you continue kind of across from two peak tops to the other side and then on the other side

there's this like fantastic

Skybridge they call it. Look. Yeah.

Fun fact the top point here is

705 meters above sea level

Mmm. Does feel pretty high. It is.

And the cable is 2 kilometers long.

And very strong hopefully. Well it's not broken yet.

You ready?

So beautiful, and this breeze is very refreshing

Too refreshing.

Feeling better now. Yeah, a lot cooler in this...

touristy, "I love Langkawi" .. What's it say?

"Summer paradise"

"Langkawi Malaysia"

I do feel a bit like your child though. You're like in this glamorous

dress and people stopping to take a photo, and I just tag along with my rucksack my neck sticking out because it's really heavy. No.

No, you are my

gorgeous gorgeous wife. I wouldn't want you to look like me or dress like me or act like me. No, I wouldn't want that either.

What you're attracted to and what you want to be like don't have to be the same. No, indeed. Even if you're gay.

So yeah, we're-- we're up on the viewing platform. This is the highest point you can get to

down below is the

sky bridge

I'm slightly terrified that at some point a camera will get dropped over the edge

I know I've got some weird impulse to like throw it over. Oh I get those!

Like really weird-- I mean destroy it for no reason. Yeah.

I jumped out of the car once when I was a child because I had that strange impulse feeling.

Don't worry, it wasn't like going-- it was like going down our driveway. We had one of those

Toyota Previas with the sliding doors, and I like slid open the door

and

like jumped out onto the lawn. And my mum was like "what the hell are you doing?"

I was like "I don't know, that actually was really painful." So yeah, don't do that guys. One of my cousins did that on a motorway, whilst the car was going very fast.

I'm gonna go to the sky glide

Tip for the future if you come, don't do the nature walk. No. It's not really a nature walk. No. It's just like a little

very-- it's not even a path. It's like the side of the cliff where they built the

cable car masts and you just sort of scrabble around

Cling for dear life

*music*

So like just like about five minutes ago we were like all the way up there on these cable cars. It's so hot down here.

It was nice and breezy down there. Right, here's our car.

Oh my god

someone's like dented our car

Claudia, it's not our car.

Oh yeah.

That didn't quite feel worth it. No.

I mean, one: it was like way more expensive than I remember being last time. It was not that expensive last time.

Was it? I don't know.

Well last time we also went at like sunset, so it was a lot cooler

It was a lot quieter and was probably a weekday. Today we made the mistake of coming on a Saturday, middle of the day, during summer holidays

School children. And it was just really hot, really crowded

overpriced. When we got-- and I was like it's alright, 'cause once we get to the top we'll have amazing views and see all the scenery and- Take all your pictures.

On the sky bridge and last time we didn't do the walk. We didn't do the sky glide, which we wanted to do.

So we got up there, and they were like oh you have to get you tickets for the sky bridge and sky glide once you're up there.

We're like "Okay." Then we come down

And they're like oh yeah, it's an hour wait to go on the sky glide and the skybridge. I wanna--

and you have to pay more money to do that as well

And also everywhere you go you have to pass all the different little shops selling you stuff.

Yeah, like,

I didn't know

you could make that many keyrings about a

cable car. And they don't let you take a drink up with you, they take your bottles of water or whatever you have off you

before you get in the cable car and it's like really hot in the cable car. Even people with toddlers. Yeah.

And it's hot up there, and there's only like one or two tiny little stores selling drinks that are, again, overpriced.

It's just a really money-grabbing-- I didn't like it. I don't like this type of--

We don't know anything touristy

I'm with you

But if you want to see nature and more of Langkawi head to like the amazing little beaches. Go on a mangrove tour.

Yeah, go on the mangrove tour, that is you know, that's really nice. We went, we recommend Dev's.

Dev's Adventure Tours mangrove tour. Yeah we did that last time. It's the one we went on two years ago.

It was nice at the top, especially your Marilyn Monroe moment.

We're gonna go get some lunch. Yas. And um.

Find a beach. And find a beach, maybe have a little swim. No, definitely have a swim.

*music*

Came down to have a swim in the sea, but instead we found a crab graveyard.

They got washed ashore last night in the big storm.

I'm gonna take some of their shells

to commemorate them. I did tell Jessie that

that the waves will take the shells and the crabs back out to sea. And then they'll just get bashed up into sand.

Or another crab will find the shell and be like "ooh this is a nice shell."

The circle of life.

*man singing in Malay*

I'm not sure what we just made you watch either.

It's supposed to be a traditional malay

shadow puppetry dancing thing.

I thought they'd be music and dancing. Apparently there was just an awful lot of talking in Malay and

only like three people there actually spoke Malay it seemed. But we weren't the first to leave

so we don't feel too bad about it. Other things that happened that day

we got terrible heat stroke from going up to that sky bridge thing and not having any water and

so we've actually just spent the last three days lying in our hotel room. Claud made her own heat stroke much worse

by not following my good example of just lying in the dark, but instead went and lay in the sun.

Has not been good. There was vomiting.

I vomited

Moving on from that topic and

Headaches were the worst. Oh my god.

I found the thing that really works,

Which is you have to have a shower, and obviously not hot shower. You have to have a coldish shower

And then you don't towel off at all, you just let the water evaporate from you.

So this video was gonna be about "Oh we're gonna show you all around Langkawi and all the sights and stuff" but ah

We spent three days feeling like we're going to die. So no. Instead

we're going to show you around our beautiful hotel, and show you the pool and the beach that's here and that's really nice and

...

I hope you still like this video

*music*

Let's go in the pool!

Okay.

*music*

We are on our lovely balcony of our room. Every room here has a balcony that looks into gorgeousness.

I just want to say thank you. Everyone's been really enjoying our videos and being so kind about them.

It's been really fun making them.

It has. I really liked experimenting with things. Yeah like the stop-motion

I really liked doing that. The Penang video, that was really good. I was obsessed with um

scrapbooking and making collages

when I was younger. Younger-- two years ago. - it's good mark. I really like the way is everyone had time.

Yeah. But then we came up with an idea that maybe we should do like, a kind of

scrapbook video playlist where like maybe like once a month. We'll say

We'll go do something, go to an natural trust house, or a weekend away

And we'll make-- we'll collect all our information that we have about it

and then we'll like make a scrapbook kind of like video, like we did for George Town. Yeah and then we'd call it, like---

Oh we'll just wait for that plane to go past.

So good to have you! See?

Look at that!

*plane noises*

Has it gone? No.

Yes, we make yeah, we make the playlist

and it would be called like "Jessie and Claud's Scrapbook"

But if you think we should do that and make that, I think that'll be fun.

I just want to do more stop-motion scrapbooking stuff!

And talking about future video ideas and so forth, you've got some other exciting news haven't you? Yes.

But I I'm not allowed to share yet. Oh, okay

Yeah, so there's something exciting happening that I can only tell you about when we're back in the UK

she's pregnant

Dunno why that would affect you having to be in the UK to tell them.

Also not true. If we were a straight couple we would be so pregnant right now. Yeah, after this holiday.

But then I realize that just eludes to something else. But what I meant was we're basically having a really lovely romantic time.

Yeah, it's a maxi moon! Though our friend Andrea said if we use the word "maxi" she would defriend us.

She would defriend us. Fair enough.
