After a nice breakfast at the house, we drove to Hannibal, MO. Hannibal is the town in Missouri in which Samuel Clemens grew up. For one price, the tour of Hannibal is pretty complete: access to all of the museums, the boyhood home of Mark Twain, a one-hour riverboat ride, and access to the Mark Twain Caves, Missouri’s first show cave. We had a picnic lunch in the middle of the day, and came back to St. Louis by a scenic byway.
The scenic byway had lots of little towns and libraries. One town we drove through was Louisiana, Missouri. Looking at the picture, you can see that the MO flooding earlier this year was pretty dramatic.
We actually got back pretty late, but we were still able to have dinner. Chicken stir fry over rice, and fresh fruit. It was really good.
