Week 3 Blog Post

I'd say so far that my partner and I have made a lot of progress, and that we are meeting the timeline that we created for the implementation guide. What we have done so far is create a specified list of places that we would be interested in going to because they offered something unique or new. I'm hoping that by next week we will have decided exactly where we want to go and that we begin to make plans for each trip.


Of course we have run into some problems. First and foremost, we are unsure if we really should include all of Iowa or just major cities, or even just Cedar Rapids. By including all of Iowa we broaden our options, but we would also be taking three hours or more trips, which might defeat the purpose of finding something fun for people to do on a whim. However, by just doing select cities, or even just Cedar Rapids, we may miss some places or activities that are quite interesting. Our second problem is knowing how much is enough. We want to have visited enough places that our vlog has a variety of places that piques everyone's interests, but with that we also have to think about time. We only have a certain amount of time to visit these places, and we only have a limited amount of time that we can present these places as well. It's going to take careful consideration when deciding how far we are willing to travel for these places, and how many of these places we actually plan on visiting.
