Christ, I'm having a cup of tea. Kenny is having a beer. Well, I'm kind of having a beer as well. Yeah, we put it in the freezer and forgot to take it out, and oh yeah, that's a solid beer in there.
Speaker A
got this fiat 500 thing it's not fiat 500 it's like a big fee at 500 i don't know what that is and we're on our way into bellagio for dinner um we are staying just outside like a 10
Speaker A
Let me show you this breakfast tray, but this is our view because that's probably what everyone really wants to see. So beautiful. It's cooler now, which is nice. This is the breakfast tray that Kenny has prepared for the morning, obviously everyone knows that for me. And then we've just got a baguette in there, and then Kenny's got some eggs, and we're gonna have some tomatoes. So that's all ready for the morning, and yeah, we're just gonna sit here. We've got dinner booked in an hour at just like this family-run restaurant, which looks really good.
Speaker A
obviously show you guys when we get there kenny's had an afro spritz and i've had a lemon cello spritz and they've just brought these out it's creamed chickpeas with ricotta so i'm just gonna give kenny my bit of ricotta
Speaker A
Oh, sorry, it's shouting ass. I feel like this is one of the first times, if not the first time, I've actually shown my face in this video. We have been on the go, like non-stop on the go, but we're now in our little car. We've got this Fiat 500 thing. It's not Fiat 500; it's like a big Fiat 500. I don't know what that is, and we're on our way into Bellagio for dinner.
Speaker A
we just got back to the airbnb but the view i don't know if the camera's going to pick it up but the view at night is honestly almost as beautiful as it is in the day oh no i don't know if the camera
Speaker A
We are staying just outside, like a 10-15 minute walk from Bellagio, and we're just staying in an Airbnb actually because the view from the Airbnb, as we've shown you, was just incredible. Heading into town now where we booked for dinner looks really nice, so I'll obviously show you guys when we get there. Kenny's had an afro spritz, and I've had a limoncello spritz, and they've just brought these out. It's creamed chickpeas with ricotta, so I'm just gonna give Kenny my bit of ricotta and eat the creamed chickpeas. Then we've got bread, and we've ordered lots of food for dinner.
Speaker A
that we're gonna head off in the afternoon and make our way towards bologna and florence with a few stops kind of on the way but in the morning we're going to hire a boat if you've seen any of our other vlogs when we're
Speaker A
This is our first course that's just arrived, and what's yours? What fish? They've just bought some little like mini desserts.
Speaker A
now we're just gonna have a cup of tea head to bed and i'll pick up with you guys in the morning good morning you're gonna have to excuse my voice today because i've actually got a slightly sore throat but i've just been
Speaker A
We just got back to the Airbnb, but the view, I don't know if the camera's going to pick it up, but the view at night is honestly almost as beautiful as it is in the day. Oh no, I don't know if the camera picks it up. Obviously, the lake reflects all the lights from around the whole kind of shoreline of the lake and looks so nice. So I think tomorrow the plan is that we're actually, I don't think I'm in focus, that we're gonna head off in the afternoon and make our way towards Bologna and Florence with a few stops kind of on the way. But in the morning, we're going to hire a boat. If you've seen any of our other vlogs when we're on holiday, we love hiring a boat, so we're going to do that tomorrow.
Speaker A
and some strawberries and then i can smell all the breakfast cooking in there just cannot get over the view you can see the mountains that way as well didn't go showing you that way breakfast on the balcony is served i've
Speaker A
So we pick up the boat tomorrow at like 10:30 a.m., and we're just gonna drive around the lake, see what there is to see. So I'm excited about that, but for now, we're just gonna have a cup of tea, head to bed, and I'll pick up with you guys in the morning.
Speaker A
it look at that water that is quite clear we're just picking up our boat now it's just coming around also look at these seaplanes they've got seaplanes all over the lake um and they like land in the lake and
Speaker A
Good morning. You're gonna have to excuse my voice today because I've actually got a slightly sore throat, but I've just been sat on the balcony, and now Kenny is through here just preparing some breakfast. We've got our bread. I'm just making my cup of tea, and it's such a beautiful day outside. Just sitting here having my cup of tea and some strawberries, and then I can smell all the breakfast cooking in there. Just cannot get over the view. You can see the mountains that way as well. Didn't go showing you that way.
Speaker A
literally where we got off the boat and as soon as we're off this is where we're going for lunch this is where the guy at the airbnb recommended he said it's like the most local place um and then for kenny all the fish is
Speaker A
Breakfast on the balcony is served. I've got avocado on toast, some tomatoes from the shop downstairs, some artichokes, and then strawberries on the side. Kenny's got the same but with egg, and we get to look at this view. The lake's actually really quite clear, isn't it? Look at that water. That is quite clear.
Speaker A
fish though it looks really good just a small seafood platter for kenny all from the lake so this is the entrance to our new bed and breakfast that we're staying at it's so pretty here the gardens around the back i'll show
Speaker A
We're just picking up our boat now. It's just coming around. Also, look at these seaplanes. They've got seaplanes all over the lake, and they like land in the lake and then take off again. It's got a cool boat. You can really get like the scale of it when you're down here. This is our boat, guys.
Speaker A
got this desk area and then actually got the stairs we've got a wardrobe area we've got the bathroom which kenny is currently occupying and then this is our bedroom we've got a bath in our bedroom it's actually super nice this place guys
Speaker A
This is... This is... This is... So just down at the bottom there is literally where we got off the boat, and as soon as we're off, this is where we're going for lunch. This is where the guy at the Airbnb recommended. He said it's like the most local place, and then for Kenny, all the fish is literally from the lake just down there. They bring it in in the morning.
Speaker A
the window and apparently i have read online that the breakfast is amazing the lady here gave us these recommendations for dinner so we're going to look them up and see what looks good we're just sat by the pool it's just us too it's
Speaker A
So we've just got our lunch. This actually does have little fish in it, which I didn't realize, so I'll just give them to Kenny. And then Kenny's is some kind of creamy smoked fish, though it looks really good. Just a small seafood platter for Kenny, all from the lake.
Speaker A
yeah we just got ready for dinner i'm just wearing my long cos dress and then the sarah blazer um and we're gonna head into town we don't have anywhere booked but we do have our list of recommendations and i guess we're just
Speaker A
So this is the entrance to our new bed and breakfast that we're staying at. It's so pretty here. The gardens around the back, I'll show you later, and this is where you come in. This is the room when you first come in. That's just all of our stuff. The wallpaper is a lot but kind of cute, I suppose. Kind of maybe it's authentic, I don't know. Then we've got this desk area, and then actually got the stairs. We've got a wardrobe area. We've got the bathroom, which Kenny is currently occupying, and then this is our bedroom. We've got a bath in our bedroom. It's actually super nice.
Speaker A
palmer and so far i'd say it's probably my favorite place we've been everywhere is super busy even though it's only a wednesday not too many tourists we don't think i didn't really expect much from palmer but i am loving it
Speaker A
This place, guys, was a hundred pounds for the night. It's just a B and B just outside Palmer, but I would highly recommend looking at B and Bs and Airbnbs as well. We just got this on booking.com, but this is the view outside the window, and apparently I have read online that the breakfast is amazing. The lady here gave us these recommendations for dinner, so we're going to look them up and see what looks good.
Speaker A
we're just gonna go to dinner and we're gonna go to dinner at this really cool place um soon this is where we've chosen to have dinner it comes very highly recommended and it's really cute on the inside i'll show you guys
Speaker A
We're just sat by the pool. It's just us two. It's really quiet here, having some crisps, and we've made a new friend. This is Zoe.
Speaker A
i'd eaten it could be like the i don't know i really have no idea all under here was swollen like actually my whole face to be honest to begin with was like swollen out here and it had this like red i guess of maybe
Speaker A
Zoey, who I think might want our crisps. Okay, either you really like us or you really like crisps, and I don't know which one it is.
Speaker A
everywhere we've been so i filmed in modern and i did film in bologna as well but i wanted to jump in here because there's not it might be a bit kind of disjointed and there's probably no clips i don't i'm not sure but i don't think
Speaker A
Yeah, we just got ready for dinner. I'm just wearing my long COS dress and then the Sarah blazer, and we're gonna head into town. We don't have anywhere booked, but we do have our list of recommendations, and I guess we're just gonna walk around and see what looks good.
Speaker A
stuff there so i'm going to slot all of that footage in now but i just wanted to jump in and explain because yeah otherwise you might be like why have we not seen her face for basically like two three days we just sat outside
Speaker A
I can't get over how pretty it is out here. So nice. Just such a random Airbnb that I booked and turned out to be a really good one.
Speaker A
b and b and they've got all these gardens and they go around the side it's so beautiful here yeah it's just a type of plant and then yeah this is the pool around here it's so pretty [Music] i really really really love it here i'd
Speaker A
We've just come into the center of Palmer, and so far I'd say it's probably my favorite place we've been. Everywhere is super busy even though it's only a Wednesday. Not too many tourists, we don't think. I didn't really expect much from Palmer, but I am loving it.
Speaker A
actually really cute here we just finished the balsamic tour and now we've come into the center of modern air it was really really interesting and yeah now we're just having an explore of the town [Music] so this is kenny's this is bolognese
Speaker A
This is actually probably like the cleanest, nicest feeling city or town we've been to so far. We're just having a little Aperol spritz.
Speaker A
cheese in sadly i'm heading off to bologna today so i'll take you guys along and then hopefully tomorrow we'll be back fully on the vlogging fun [Music] we've just stopped to have some lunch um at this place and it's it's vegan and
Speaker A
vegetarian and it looks really good i've got two beers and we're just waiting for the food to come this is what i ordered because i was just craving some veggies and then kenny this is also vegan it's pumpkin and mushroom tortellini or is
Speaker A
that tortelloni which one went to this organic gelato place and they had like two full menus of vegan options so this is a chocolate hazelnut what'd you call it sorbet kind of thing it's really really good we've just come and had a
Speaker A
drink i had a lamborgh which is down the same street we showed you earlier but obviously super busy now because it's um the evening so we have just arrived in florence the hotel here is absolutely beautiful i'll show you around the room and the hotel
Speaker A
in a second plan for today is just to enjoy the pool because we've not had any like pool chill time so far it's been very much like a traveling trip so go into the city have a look around it
Speaker A
looks absolutely beautiful i can't wait to kind of explore it a bit more so let me start by showing you around the room so this is the room as you first come in you've just got this kind of wardrobe
Speaker A
area and then it comes around here to like a tea and coffee area and then the bathrooms through here then in here the bedroom's really really pretty it's kind of like i don't know it looks kind of french but
Speaker A
i guess it must be italian and then out of the windows actually a really nice view um across the city and then are they they're alphanines these mountains apparently have something to do with what is that it creates like a
Speaker A
microclimate for the emilia romano region which is not where we are now but that's why they're that's why they have um really good food there this is the outside of the hotel it's called villa cena something it's actually just
Speaker A
like a 10 minute walk from town town is up that way so i'll go inside and show you when you come through these doors you've got kind of like the first entrance hall and then up there is a spa
Speaker A
and through here is the reception so this is then like the second kind of entrance room in here i think this is like a store and then through there you can see through to the pool i really like like a dark interior
Speaker A
and then through here it's so beautiful down by the pool i'll quickly run outside and show you and then this is all just spaces to kind of chill hello and yeah i'm not going to film too much outside
Speaker A
because obviously everyone's in a bikini it might be a bit of an invasion of their privacy through there's the bar that's like the downstairs of the hotel i guess this is kind of like it's got gucci and todd's and some other
Speaker A
designers i guess this is kind of the designer event we found this juice bar that does actually does loads of like vegan options as well but i am just having i'll zoom you in having one of these detox cheeses
Speaker A
[Applause] there's vegan banana bread up there and then over there there's like sandwiches and stuff but good luck this is what the place is called and it's like right in the middle basically and this is my juice look how impressive it is
Speaker A
honestly that's actually really something special so from the outside it's kind of like very unassuming and it's a bit out of the main kind of touristy bits the streets are a bit emptier but then like as you guys can see it's completely full
Speaker A
head oh yes four cheese you were something else you are they have one that's vegan it's like potatoes aubergine sun-dried tomatoes spinach um and hot sauce so i'll let you know how oh and mushrooms i think only got four cheese
Speaker A
nothing but cheese in yours excuse me um we're on the hunt for a wine window that's actually open because that's like the thing in florence or it used to be the thing um kenny said apparently they made these
Speaker A
during the plague so during coronavirus they reopened some of them but i sadly think it's used this one has not reopened [Music] this bridge is so cool kenny and i were just saying dragon people there's rolex in the middle of the bridge do you see
Speaker A
that we were saying do you reckon people living there or what's the deal oh i really love florence this is on the bridge it's a bit um full of tourists but it's pretty cool [Applause] look at the view through the back of the
Speaker A
store guys [Music] uh [Music] we just got back to the hotel had a maybe had a small nap for like 20 minutes and now we're gonna head downstairs and go to the pool we just sat outside now we're gonna order
Speaker A
a drink and this is what it looks like by the pool it's all in the shade now apart from over there we might go sit over there on that ledge just get some last evening sun i've just been getting ready for dinner and this
Speaker A
is what kenny's doing watching the stanley teaching about florence to see if we've missed anything i think my skin is finally starting to clear up i like exfoliated away some of the dry damaged skin so i'm feeling so much better now we're
Speaker A
gonna head into town i think tonight the plan of action i still sound sick don't know i don't feel it plan of action is we're gonna go first to a vegan restaurant there are loads of vegan restaurants by the way in
Speaker A
florence just because obviously it has been really difficult for me to avoid things like dairy and stuff and even when you ask for it without dairy there's been some occasions where i'm like this definitely has cheese in so i
Speaker A
just want a big healthy plate that i know is vegan i've just like vegetables and getting a bit of nutrition um and then we're going to go somewhere for kenny and i'll maybe have some pasta or something as well there i am just
Speaker A
wearing this like little frilly mini dress which is just from zara it's got this low back [Music] so we've just come to this vegan vegetarian restaurant it was actually right next to our hotel um this is what it's called and they've
Speaker A
just brought us out this which is must be some kind of nibbles i've got wine kenny's got beer what do you think that is in the middle it's like vegan cheese and then hummus maybe and something i guess we'll find out my pasta's just
Speaker A
arrived which is tomato and olive pasta which looks amazing and then this obviously vegan cheese and then i also ordered this is quinoa and and like an asparagus sauce it looks really good you're gonna have the first try go on
Speaker A
let me know if it's any good [Applause] that's like leaner vegan vegetarian or not this place is honestly delicious i have no idea like how they make this or what this is but it is insane kenny has also got do you
Speaker A
remember the name or do you know no but anyway it looks sensational it looks like creamy pasta i'll definitely be having a fork full of this although i'm so full and then i also ordered some of these cannellini beans they're not
Speaker A
called that here um but it's cannellini beans and a tomato sauce and then the final thing that we've ordered is just some grilled veg just to get the vegetarian but everything has been so good do you see this thing on the floor here this tiny
Speaker A
stick it just fell [Applause] [Laughter] it just fell out of this tree right into this and splashed oil all over my white dress so brilliant look at this so now i'm gonna have to go and change thanks to this
Speaker A
just have to run home for a quick outfit change thanks to the tree situation i just put on this suit that i wear literally all the time and my trainers and now we're gonna head back out and go get a drink somewhere
Speaker A
good morning thank you um this building at night looks even more surreal it kind of it honestly looks like a painting doesn't have a better night you know we've just come for kenny to get some dinner so obviously
Speaker A
both of these are his because i ate so much earlier i could not eat a thing so this is like basically aubergine with cheese with parmesan and this is truffles tagliatelle we've just got back to the hotel and
Speaker A
come on to the terrace at the top and we've realised that this building do you see this white building at the top here this is our hotel that we're staying in tomorrow night and apparently it's got amazing views of
Speaker A
florence it's called villa cora um i don't actually think that is the hotel we've discovered that we've discovered that you can see that from the hotel so our hotel is somewhere up there but we thought it was that but
Speaker A
we're wrong anyway i'm gonna we're gonna go into the bedroom now and um just rest that on your shoulder tomorrow is an ultimate day or not no no no still got two more days and then one kind of like full half day anyway we'll
Speaker A
speak to you guys in the morning night good morning we're actually changing hotel today again we've not stayed more than one night in a hotel this whole trip so that's been chaotic we're just on the drive up to the new hotel now but how
Speaker A
pretty are these streets this is the hotel over on this side i'll try and show you the front view at some point because it is beautiful so we're just pulling in now wow so pretty it's all like very there's loads of
Speaker A
parks and trees and stuff around us as well and it overlooks the um the city oh god it's beautiful i think our room's in that thing by the way i think it is i think i saw that i thought she's absolutely stunning here
Speaker A
so um we've just checked in and our room's not quite ready yet because we're a little bit early to check in so you've just come down to the pool and we're just gonna relax here until our room's ready let me show you
Speaker A
oh there's a dog so this is obviously the main building where we checked in and this is some rooms over here try not to film anyone and then this is like the restaurant area which goes around to here not a bad spot this is my salad
Speaker A
that i bought earlier for lunch so it's quinoa and chickpeas and avocado and sweet potato and lots of goodness so i'm just gonna sit here eat this and enjoy being by the pool we've just come in to explore the hotel
Speaker A
and oh wow i have never seen anything this intricate in my life it is beautiful kenny's in here with no shoes on so that's disrespectful that's fine and then just everywhere you look is just beautiful there's like a terrace out there
Speaker A
kenny's just walking through as if this is his home let's have a look out here shall we so stunning here so beautiful just cannot get over this room crazy we've just got into the room so let me show you around so this is the entrance
Speaker A
hall and then through here we have the bathroom which just has this like nice big shower and then over here which i love they have like a pink robe with a with pink slippers and the rose for women which i just think is really nice
Speaker A
bathroom nice big spacious bathroom really good shower actually and then through here is our bedroom which is super pretty as well and they've left us some chocolate strawberries and then out here look at that view such a beautiful view we're just going
Speaker A
up to the reef terrace to have a look from there but i imagine the view from our room is probably going to be pretty much the same this is kind of like all the corridors or the network of all the
Speaker A
rooms they've just done it so beautifully here it's kind of like traditional classic but also modern you know at the same time look at the view from up here guys that's the pool obviously that we're just at and then i think this is more
Speaker A
guest streams in that separate building there and then this is what i meant when i said it's surrounded the whole hotel is surrounded by just that kind of parks and trees and then yeah the view is crazy we've just got ready for dinner i'll
Speaker A
show you my outfit in just one hot suck um so we're gonna head into town now it's quite early because we want to make the most of our final evening in florence and kind of go to a few bars
Speaker A
get some dinner i think we're gonna do what we did last night in terms of going to somewhere that serves like vegan options for me for us and then probably doing somewhere a bit later just for kenny also sorry but i just cannot get
Speaker A
over this view and these curtains it's just so beautiful especially now you've got like the evening sun i was saying to kenny would it not be the most amazing place to get married so it would actually be incredible
Speaker A
you could have like the reception on the roof terrace it would just be ridiculous get married down here we're just sitting on the roof having a glass of prosecco thought you're gonna cheers me then and um enjoying the
Speaker A
evening view out here this is kenny pretending to be drunk after two glasses of prosecco very dramatic yeah she did a very good job it's probably because he's not joking [Laughter] we just came to this place don't know if
Speaker A
you can see that it's called angie's pub i feel like it's a very local vibe just random place and we finished our drinks but i had lemoncello soda kenny had half a beer and now he wants to go across the
Speaker A
road to this place because apparently they have proper coffee and have a quick espresso before dinner okay so we just came for dinner um and there nearly wasn't a table but they managed to sit us right in the window here as long as that
Speaker A
as long as we're quick they said um but it's really weird it's like kind of in i don't know it looks like a book shop but out there there's the most beautiful conservatory kind of area i'll try and
Speaker A
show you later um but the menu looks really really good so i am thinking i'm going to have this um ragu which is made with lentils which looks really good kenny is going to get this salad because he'll eat again later
Speaker A
and we'll share and then i'm also going to get this tortelloni because it's the first tortelloni that i've been able to eat on this trip and that's the plan got some avocado i think it's on a hummus with a tiny
Speaker A
little bit of token salad and then they bought us some bread and then we've got our wine this is the lentil ragu with tagliatelle and then this is the tortelloni which i can't remember what's inside it's like ginger and something
Speaker A
but it looks really really good okay update both are very good this is kelly's favorite and this is by far my favorite is delicious like so so yummy we just got to the second restaurant so this is kind of a bit more for kenny but
Speaker A
it turns out actually we did walk through this square earlier do you remember this and i said oh this looks nice maybe yesterday oh yeah well anyway it looks really nice there um this restaurant has got amazing reviews so we will let you know but
Speaker A
turns out i definitely could have eaten here because they've got the allergens on the menu which is rare so i know what's got dairy in so for example this homemade pinky with spicy garlic tomato sauce i could eat that bruschetta
Speaker A
obviously i could eat that so i think we're gonna go for round two and i'm gonna order more pasta because it is up and autumn at night so you gotta enjoy it when you come hey thoughts and kelly's also ordered another half
Speaker A
bottle of wine not that we need that the bruschetta smells really strong of garlic which is just fine which is a bit me this wine is actually also very good so this is kind of like a spaghetti and spicy
Speaker A
tomato sauce parmesan and then kenny has got wild ball i think it was some kind of braggy situation so i really both were kenny but like i'll have a mouthful or two [Laughter] it's got hazelnut ice cream sensational
Speaker A
obviously vegan you want some and he's so drunk um and now apparently you can't kiss the ice cream honestly guys and um now we're going to another bar apparently not that i want to i'm ready for bed now but
Speaker A
kenny says i have no choice so we're going to another bar honestly there's no one in the whole of florence more drunk than kenny right now but this is really good we've made at home we just walked all the way up
Speaker A
the hill kenny and i are very full they've done the turn down service and i don't know what this means but i just think it's so cute they've put like our slippers on these maps mine are also it's matte down here i don't know what
Speaker A
that means and then they put some lavender in the bed so nice good morning we've just come down for breakfast which we're having outside on the terrace that i showed you yesterday breakfast is through here [Music] it's just like a big kind of buffet and
Speaker A
you help yourself it looks super good i think anything would look good in this room though it's got sunday tomatoes these are bolotti beans some grilled veg and some tomatoes obviously most of it corny because most of it is cheese and
Speaker A
meat because we're in italy but they did have this was called a vegan plum cake i have no idea what that actually consists of but i'll try and let you know we've now come back to this place to get kenny a coffee
Speaker A
if you want good coffee and you're in florence kenny said this is the best he's had in italy so far so also randomly there are some like vegan options in stockholm if that is interesting to you i just bought some shoes and then it turns
Speaker A
out i had no idea but gucci was founded in florence so that's pretty cool so we've just stopped for lunch and i've got pretty much what kenny had at that restaurant last night and then kenny has got some kind of ragu situation the pasta
Speaker A
looks really good with chocolate with chocolate with cacao really oh no and then we just got some spinach that's probably the better one maybe oil this was the hotel guys from the front we're just driving past you i think
Speaker A
that's kind of all you're going to see kenny said the next hotel's just outside pisa because we fly home from pisa tomorrow apparently we're 10 minutes away but it's looking very rural here i thought our hotel was in pisa but turns
Speaker A
out kenny's booked like a bit more of a rural one which is definitely above me right in all the tuscan hills here big mountains i feel like we're deep in the heart of rural tuscany here what's up new york we
Speaker A
went to that brandon beach oh yeah it was it was palmer so pretty if you guys saw our um ibiza palmer vlog from last summer it's a very similar kind of view and road to the one that we
Speaker A
took there when we went over to the beach on one of those days we're right by the hotel here 1.5 kilometers this is the little town that the hotel is in [Applause] it's beautiful so i think the market is
Speaker A
down here and so we had to drive this long way around but this is the front of the hotel just walked out of the bar getting ready for the thermal pool it's like a thermal ball in the spa here
Speaker A
what they provided you it's in the back you know like we have these bags and they put slippers and stuff and please show them right try and put your foot i came out and put your foot in here and
Speaker A
kenny was saying [Music] he was saying these are way too small because he put on they put smaller ones for women in the room as well oh i can't go that is so funny oh kenny sometimes they have given us just some
Speaker A
snacks as well which is a nice touch and also i'm quite hungry so i could do with them and now we're heading down to check out the pool before it closes this is the corridor which is kind of like the walk
Speaker A
down to our room everything is on such a huge scale here she said it's like an old tuscan who lived here kenny some tuscan important person and then they also own all these gardens behind and she said you can climb to the
Speaker A
top of the gardens this is the walk down to the spot you can see from how small kenny is down there like the scale of this hotel it is huge we're now completely lost in the middle of the hotel because it is that big oh
Speaker A
we're at the front is this the right way but where's the outside pool like where can that possibly be this is one of five pools they have this is like an indoor huh [Applause] what is it nice also these caps as much as laughing at
Speaker A
kenny for some reason you have to wear them in here which i've never seen but and then there's also a pull through that they've all got different things this one's with like sea salt for some reason i guess they must have like
Speaker A
health benefits um and then there's another one through there and the spa has got two wings to it so um yeah i mean this hotel is outrageous and then this is the rooftop pool which is actually super nice
Speaker A
it's kenny in this little green cap don't know why you have to wear them everywhere but this is the hotel over the back here i mean this hotel is this whole building it's genuinely huge you can see and then all the mountains
Speaker A
and then the hotel goes all the way around and there's the bit where we parked our car it's just absolutely huge like vast okay so i'm gonna give you a room tour i've already messed the room up a bit so
Speaker A
let's just ignore that but the first room you come into these clothes to spit dog is kind of like a living room area this is genuinely the biggest hotel room i've ever seen in my entire life and probably is the biggest one i will see i
Speaker A
don't know if you get the scale like especially of how high the ceilings are and then you come through here i've just got storage space and stuff and the bathroom's in here kenny just had a shower so messed up but then in here
Speaker A
this is the bedroom and um again excuse the bed but it is enormous like absolutely vast so these are all the wardrobes over here go and stand in the other corner because otherwise i don't think you can tell the scale
Speaker A
hopefully by seeing the size of kenny on the camera you can understand like the scale of this room that's kenny and then look how much further up the ceiling goes yeah it's very what do you call it like rustic kind of
Speaker A
thing and then i'll just show you there's not much to see out of the window i don't think it's worth staying here just to experience a um room of this scale if we just come to the hotel bar
Speaker A
to have a drink before we leave and we've got some of the snacks they give you and then to be honest can't see much because this old rules here but kenny's playing spotting on his app another hobby of kenny's i got gin and
Speaker A
tonic and kenny got something i just don't know what is it gin ricky we're just um driving into pisa now and it's surrounded by this big city wall which i did not know and kenny thinks that he's seen the leaning tower
Speaker A
of pisa over there about four times and has been stuck on her phone kenny that's not the case first of all he told me to look up because he said there's the tower and it was a telephone um
Speaker A
like what they called he tells me look up it's a telephone tower can you then blame me when i don't look up the next few times you look very handsome tonight honey if i do you say literally it's just buying with more
Speaker A
well okay if i unless i'm missing something everyone can you see it i also think we'll probably get a better view inside oh let me guess that's it no no no really we found her everybody i mean it looks just like the history book so i
Speaker A
learned about it at school it's a lot i'm smaller than i thought yeah it's a fun fact then i don't have a i really don't have a fun part for you is that not a lot smaller than you would
Speaker A
have thought though i thought it would be really tall for some reason here it is in all its glory kenny just requested to get there but now you need one of those like french hats why what does that do well in
Speaker A
but like it's like a thumbnail do you want to show them the the pose you told me you're going to do go on what pose you're going to do next to it [Applause] [Music] walking home but there's some kind of
Speaker A
like championship or whether everyone's just randomly playing it i think it's like a game oh it's a game spa kenny's jealous we all know how much he loves the bald game oh it is like a competition no i've never seen the game before
Speaker A
you'd win though wouldn't you never seen it you live before but i'm sure you could do it crack it want to figure out the rules you
