The "American Queen" river boat cruise review. This was our honeymoon and our first cruise. We had a wonderful time and hope someday we can do another river cruise aboard the American Queen.

These are the photographs of our Mississippi River Boat Cruise. The camera was an early model digital, so the quality isn't necessarily all that great.

Well at least it's a bridge.
Pretty big one.

Sure is a big river.

The river boats get pretty close to the banks.

Barges everywhere you look. I've never seen so many barges.

This is another river boat docked up near ours.

We went under too many
bridges to count.
           
   Photo11 10-2-96 3_35 AM.jpg (94169 bytes) 
Sometimes the banks
of the river are not so
interesting. 
 Photo11 10-4-96 12_12 AM.jpg (94616 bytes)  
Does it look like we are having fun? We are.

The Queen just ties up on
a levy whenever it wants.

It seems as though there is nearly always an interesting vessel going by.

Bill in front of the paddle wheel. The wheel is more impressive.

The banks of the Mississippi.

Yes bill, that is a cannon.

Kathy and the paddle
wheel. Now that is impressive.

The smoke stacks 
had to be lowered
to get under a bridge.

  Photo6 10-1-96 8_55 PM.jpg (93782 bytes)
Yes, the stack is laying down on its side.

Cool stairway in the mansion.

That boat just keeps popping up all over the place.

   Photo6 5-26-99 12_59 AM.jpg (94190 bytes)
The river boat of course.

In conclusion, if you like to relax during the day, party in the evenings, eat fantastic food and lots of it, the American Queen is in our opinion, the best of the best in river cruising!
