    • Explore the vicinity of the Mississippi River.
    • Enjoy the scenic locations.
    • Discover the story of writer Mark Twain.
    • Visit the winery.
    This trip will be appreciated by those who, like me, have long dreamed of visiting the picturesque towns along the Mississippi River. This is a great chance not only to visit the lakes or parks, but also to get acquainted with the culture of rock music, the childhood of the author, who gave us a fascinating story about Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, and walk around the area, recreated from the book.
    A trip to the vineyard one day definitely improved our lunch, and I hope you can experience such positive impressions. This trip will definitely be an opportunity to get to know the suburbs of big cities and feel the atmosphere of real America.
