We've finally made it to Manhattan, the smallest but most densely populated borough. When we think of New York City, Manhattan is more often than not what comes to mind. This is part 1.

In part 2 about the borough of Manhattan, Sigrid completes her overview of all 5 boroughs of New York City. She talks about some nicknames for New York City, including "the Big Apple."

After exploring the five boroughs of New York City, we move on to Princeton, New Jersey, where Sigrid gets curious about a canal built in the early 19th century.

What makes canals so special? In part 2, we explore locks. Locks are like elevators for barges and boats!

This last part about the D&R canal talks about the special bridges that were needed to cross the canal and who had to take care of them. And if you're wondering if the canal is still in use, Sigrid answers that question. There's a special tribute at the end of the video for which you might want this link.

We're back on Long Island, exploring the North Shore with an outing to a wildlife refuge on one of the necks, or small peninsulas that jut into the Long Island Sound, the body of water separating Long Island from Connecticut.

Let's look at how Long Island was formed around 20,000 years ago. It has to do with a glacier that brought plenty of material along with it and left some behind when it receded.

For the final days of Sigrid's visit to the New York area, she leaves the rocky North Shore and goes south to a place she knows very well from her childhood—the beach! It's a nice place to visit even in the cooler weather.

Finally home! Sigrid talks about her trip home and how it feels to be back after a month away.

Annette sharpens her skydiving skills in a vertical wind tunnel in Slovakia. The wind reaches a speed of 180 kilometers per hour (112 mph).

Annette gives us some tips on using yoga moves to give our muscles a break when on a road trip.

Annette takes us on a tour of her conversion van named Hermes, a van that has been, in her case, converted into a living space. In addition to the basics, she has equipped the van with many of the comforts of home.

Annette shows us Salt Lake City's very modern and light-filled public library and takes us up to the roof for a surprise.

Annette talks about the Wild West, and takes us to a famous gold mining town in South Dakota that was an important part of United States history.

Annette visits the Erickson Aircraft Collection in Madras, Oregon. A highlight of the collection is a plane that appeared in a very famous movie.
