If you're going to Cape Girardeau then you have to take the time to take a walk along the wall that serves to protect Cape during times of floods. The murals are beautiful and if the flood gates are open then you can walk through them and walk along the banks of the Mississippi River and take in the view from there. Well worth the time in more ways than one.

This is "a photo-op" for anyone looking for roadside oddities. It is absolutely one BIG CUP, that will make you feel tiny standing beside it.
