Reaching the Mississippi was actually a huge deal for me, and done quite accidentally. Leaving Graceland I got hopelessly lost despite the kind, and growing ever more frustrated, voice of my GPS copilot. I found myself on a street that bordered a great park along the famed Mississippi river. I was so thrilled as the river represents so much in American history, and I've grown up reading so much about it but have never seen it. This was definitely one of the defining moments for me on the trip. I'll let the pictures do the talking:
Rocinante made it!
