  • After 3 fun days exploring the Black Hills region of South Dakota, we have started our trek east and first up: Rapid City! We spent the day seeing more presidents, checking out some unique sights from Norway and Berlin, grabbing coffee, seeing art, and eating Indian food. It was a fun little city adventure!

    Safety is our #1 priority and we want to stress that this adventure, and all future adventures, will be done responsibly and with the health of others in mind. Here are the steps we are taking everyday, including in these videos:
    😷Masks and face coverings. We wear these anytime we are near others outside and especially indoors. If we don’t have a mask on in a video, it’s 99% because there was no one around.
    ⏰ Exploring early. We normally start at sunrise anyway because of less crowds, but especially so with COVID. We have been starting our days before sunlight so we can limit our interactions.
    🧼 Washing and sanitizing our hands, especially after touching anything outside of the van.
    🚐 Being in the van 95% of the time when we’re not filming. The adventures we share are a small sliver of our lives. We are staying in the van all day everyday when working and the only time we leave is to do laundry, get gas, or go to the store.
    6️⃣ Keeping our distance. We are trying to stay at least 6 ft from others, which truthfully isn’t always possible (and then we make sure we cover our face).

    Rapid City actually is sister cities with Apolda in Germany! The high schools in the area have an exchange student program with Apolda and they have students go and stay at the other city and participate in one of their schools for about two weeks!

    Both of you and your Channel are outstanding. Storytelling, videography, audio, music, editing and natural camera presence, without being boring or over the top. Pleasure to watch. Unscripted and educational. Rare to see this combination of skills. I assume this is just a crew of two. But the production quality looks much bigger. Well done. First time watching tonight. I will watch them all now. There is a lot a crap on UA-cam and that’s ok. But your Channel looks professional. Breath of fresh air. Thanks for not wasting my time

I have lived here my whole life and I absolutely love it and if you ever come here again I definitely recommend going to a little town called Nemo! I love this video I thought it was so cool

      @@AdventuresofAplusK I was born there and spent all my summers and Christmases there till i joined the Army. It is the hidden jems you should see. Like the overlook at the RV campground right outside Rapid city on the 4th of July, the drive through the pigtails heading toward trout haven where all the cabins are, the wildflowers blooming in spring thaw heading out toward Mt Rushmore. But also the museums in Rapid, the Lakota and the journey museum or just walking in storybook island for the memories of the stories told to us as kids
      if you head south from there got toward Hot Springs the mountain views are breathtaking

    Wow, you guys were pretty good at that game. My knowledge of your presidential history is terrible but I think I have an excuse. But if we had similar with our Prime Ministers or Monarch's, I'd fail miserably! I loved the painting that was Adam's favourite too, but I liked how they'd taken inspiration for the orange moons from the cap on whatever that thing was stuck on the wall. Loved seeing a few bits and pieces from Berlin - that city's history fascinates me. I've jumped on our history department's trip taking students over there for the last couple of years (but obviously it's not happening this year) and it's just so mind boggling what happened when the city was divided into two! Can not wait for Badlands next episode, hoping it will bring back very distant memories for me ❤️

    • @AdventuresofAplusK
      @AdventuresofAplusK  3 роки тому

      Adam was MUCH better at the game than me lol! I used to know a song where you sang all of the president's names in order , but I can't remember it anymore! How cool to take students over there! We have heard that Berlin is such a fun city to visit and we hope to make it out there someday!
