I thought Vikings would be raping and pillaging along the Mississippi river. Kinda disappointed to see it’s cruise lines.

How about a cruise up and down the East Coast Intracoastal Waterway!

They are needed to plunder and pillage DC so a fresh start can be made. Longevity equates with gone.

River cruises make more sense in Europe, where the distances are much shorter. Same with trains.

Is the “cut-across” (Indian River to Black River, I think) still open in the Northern-lower?
Been a long time since I went from L. Huron to L. Michigan.

With the loss of oil revenues Norway may have to return to the grand old days of plunder. ;^)

We are (tentatively) planning a cruise on the Rhine River through Germany, etc. in October, 2016.
IF - and ONLY IF - travel to Europe is safe at that time.

Most of the ports on the Great Lakes look like Marquette MI does now.
You go there and look at the crumbling relics of a dead port.
The empty steel mills, or the brownfields that they once were. The empty grain and concrete elevators and all the ancillary businesses that they supported.
It’s actually depressing to see what once was, especially from Buffalo west.

And where the countryside and cities one passes are a bit more picturesque. There aren’t any castles or almost vertical hillside vineyards along the Mississippi, and downtown Memphis doesn’t exactly compare all that favorably with Paris or Köln.

It could still be a cruise...
...with very interesting port calls.

What are they going to pillage? There's a significant lack of Irish Monasteries along the Mississippi.
