I live in a neighborhood right on the river - one of my favorite things is watching these massive boats go by; especially the Chiquita and Dole container ships filled with bananas.
Fun fact, a ships captain is not the one piloting the boat, they instead must relinquish all control to specialized Mississippi River pilots at the mouth of the river.
