American Melody visits Fort Madison

We had our initial riverboat stop of 2022 today. The American Melody, owned and operated by American Cruise Lines, stopped at Fort Madison, for the sightseeing pleasure of their guests. Items of interest, include reception of guests by local residents, and a trip through the BNSF swingspan bridge, as the cruise ship departed.

Captain Bobby makes it look so easy navigating the railroad bridge. I'll be back up this way next year again on American Symphony.
