Cape Girardeau

[xgmx]

I am going on a vacation this Summer, before school starts, and that vacation is a vacation to Cape Girardeau (Missouri, United States). Cape Girardeau is the third largest city in Missouri (the first being St. Louis and the second being Kansas City), so I figure I could think of lots of things to do there right off the top of my head, however, I am afraid to say, I am at a loss. Well this vacation is very important to me, because it is the first time in my life that I will be going on vacation without parental guidance. In fact, I am going to be driving down there myself (with my newly obtained driving permit), however, the law for the States of Missouri require that I have only one passenger in the vehicle when driving, and that person must be a responsible adult (18 or older). Luckily for me, my uncle, Jonathan McDonald (Prime Minister of Jonathanland) will be going with me. Alright, I think it's about time I got to the point, if any of you would be so kind as to list some (if not all) attractions in Cape Girardeau, after all, I am a tourist. When I said attractions, I meant all kinds of attractions: local cuisine, national monuments, international monuments, state monuments, city monuments, libraries, amusement parks, major bodies of water, museums, airports, shopping centers, parks, memorials, and everything else that can be considered an attraction. I thank you for your time and effort in helping me succesfully make (and plan) this great journey.
