We're here in Mitchell, South Dakota.
We thought we would start this at the corniest place possible today.
We're driving through South Dakota, we decided to stop off at a big attraction here.
It's the corn palace located in Mitchell, South Dakota.
I've never been so I am excited to see what it's all about.
This way
to the corn palace.
We can cross the corn palace off the bucket list.
I am very glad we stopped, very glad we checked it out it's cool it's a little weird corny
and it definitely smells like corn.
Now I want to get some popcorn.
We are now heading to Badlands National Park which is about three hours away.
We may have made a big mistake.
We made it just barely.
We made it.
We just drove into Badlands National Park and we're excited to do a little hiking.
I think we can handle that.
Just walked up, just recovering from the ladder.
In 2016 the bison became the national animal of the United States of America and I think
that was a good choice.
The national mammal?
National mammal wow you are just full of fun facts about bison.
That's a very fun bison fact.
Live from the Badlands National Park, prairie dog patch here
we are observing a family of prairie dogs.
Alright we are still here in South Dakota we had a fantastic time checking out the Badlands
National Park definitely set the bar high for the rest of our trip here.
We heard there's some Presidents hanging out on the side of a mountain and come here to
check it out.
[Mt Rushmore]
Alright so we are heading up the trail next to Mount Rushmore gonna see what we see.
[Leaving Mt Rushmore]
So we just drove through Wind Cave National Park it was about 30 minute drive from Mount
Rushmore and it has an elaborate cave system underneath unfortunately the caves were closed
so we couldn't explore that today so we'll have to come back sometime for that.
We took a really nice drive through we got to see some wildlife.
It's basically prairie dog park all along the road the whole way through there's just
little families of prairie dogs running around and we got to see some more bison because
that's just what we're gonna see out here and not crowded at all there's barely anybody
there so kind of felt like we had the whole place to ourselves and we could just sort
of explore and take a relax drive through.
Yeah just a cool little park that we can cross off the national park list of places that
we've been to.
