If you’re looking for a fun Missouri getaway, you might want to put Hannibal on your list. The Mississippi River town is best known as the boyhood home of Samuel Clemens, better known as Mark Twain, and you can explore the places and people that inspired some of his most famous stories. But Hannibal is much more than Mark Twain. Historic sites, caves, riverboat cruises, scenic views, shops, restaurants, and plenty of unusual Missouri history await discovery.
The Accidental Ozarkian, Barbara Baird, joins Show Me Today to talk about what makes Hannibal worth a visit and how you can make the most of a day there.
