The Riverboats Are Back In Town!

Today the Grand American Queen and America showed up at our waterfront with their passengers to visit and tour our Civil War town of Vicksburg, MS from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  You can see a walkway going down to the Catfish Row at Children's Art Park. Also, the floodwall with the Vicksburg Riverfront Murals painted by Robert Dafford.

I noticed this American Queen bus that may have been broken down.  Usually it's about 3 or 4 buses to take passengers to different historic locations in town. 

Went to the waterfront to see both of the riverboats up-close.

Different angle of America!

A towboat making it's way southbound in the Yazoo Diversion Canal with it's tow passing the American Queen and America riverboats.

My favorite picture of both while moored in the Yazoo Diversion Canal at the Vicksburg waterfront.
