2. North American Travel

The US Heartland on the Mississippi River

Cruising down the Mississippi River from the Minneapolis and Saint Paul twin cities to explore Mark Twin's mighty Mississippi and its tributaries is an exploration of the American spirit. Gliding past the rolling farmland on The Queen of the Mississippi paddlewheel riverboat is an experience set in a time past and a testament to the ingenuity of the pioneers who first traveled these waters. With stops for exploration at Red Wing Minnesota, La Crosse Wisconsin, Dubuque Iowa, Davenport Iowa, Hannibal Missouri, Saint Louis Missouri, Memphis Tennessee, Greenville Mississippi, Vicksburg Mississippi, Natchez Mississippi, Baton Rouge Louisiana and New Orleans the full flavor and fabric of the region is brought to life. There were many highlights, the Saint Louis Arch and the Botanical Gardens, Graceland, the Frogmore and Rosedown Plantations, the BB King Museum, the Blues Hall of Fame, the Black Hawk Historic site and many more. Sit down, run the slide show and enjoy.
