Mud Island

We visited Memphis for the first time over Memorial Day weekend.  We decided to go to Mud Island.  It is located in the Mississippi river.  We rode a monorail over; walked through the Riverwalk, an exact scale model of the Lower Mississippi River from Cairo, Illinois 954 miles south to the Gulf of Mexico; took a paddle boat; and walked through a museum that showed life on the river.  The kids loved getting wet!!!  
After our adventures we visited the Aldi's (a grocery store that Kyle remembered from his mission), and had some wonderful barbecue for dinner.  It was a fun day trip for the Flamm family.

  1. What a fun idea to have a river model you can actually walk down. Looks like a fun day.
