Hi Jim - looking forward to your videos of this cruise. I’ve done 9 ACL cruises and typically do a photo book & slideshow from the photos I take along the way. I’m curious, what source do you use for the music you include on your videos? My source in Photopia is far too limited.

I love the seven day cruise on the rivers of Tennessee, Kentucky and Alabama on the newest cruise ship of American Cruise Lines: American Serenade! This is the first of the new videos about the seven day river cruise on the Rivers of Tennessee, Kentucky and Alabama on American Serenade of American Cruise Lines! This is the sixth river cruise with American Cruise Lines! You will get back to making videos of your collection of G scale model trains soon!

Great videos! I am going on the American Serenade on the Upper Mississippi next month. I am looking forward to seeing your review of the boat and any cabin recommendations.

Thanks for the video, Jim. A river cruise is better than no cruise, but the scenery does not seem all that exciting to me compared to ocean cruises. Perhaps, the one river cruise I'd like to experience in my lifetime would be in the Pacific Northwest. I hope you do one of those. Another option would be a cruise in France or in Russia, on the Volga. In my view, river cruises are very expensive and the cost is not justified by what the ships offer. You may change my mind though. :)

Just happened on this video and noticed it was from Nashville. What was interesting was that the Cheatham Dam and Lock was my first look at it. My Son works there. I’ll have to ask him if he was working when you all locked through.

I've been to both Nashville and Chatanooga but never by river, it looks like a great trip and a little different than the usual Mississippi trips. I'd be tempted to take this one myself! I agree, the river scenery is as good as the day stops, what things can be seen on the river are amazing! I'm looking forward to the rest of this series, I enjoy all your cruise videos!

The time lapse videos were done with a GoPro 9. I think for what you saw in this video, the interval was set to 2 seconds.

I think that would be the wrong cruise line for me. I've watched lots of videos about VV and there's just things about it that turn me off. Lately, American Cruise Lines have kept me plenty busy sending me from one ship to the another... all at their expense. It doesn't leave me a lot of time to do other cruises. I don't expect the free cruises to last forever, and when they finally have run out I suspect I will make my way back to Norwegian Cruise Line and Carnival which have been the ones that match my personal tastes in cruising the best.

Can you get seasick on a river cruise??

No, it's very calm and stable when you are on a river cruise. The cruise I did about a month ago was on the Great Lakes, and that was also very stable... until we got to Lake Erie and the wind picked up. There was some rolling motion on the ship for about a day. But that was a cruise on a really big LAKE, not a river. On rivers and small lakes, or on a big lake with no wind, a ship like that is super stable.

It really is a great way to explore the USA. It gives you a little taste of lots of different places. Some of them, a little taste is all you'll ever need... and others, you'll realize that you really need to return for a longer visit. For example, my short visit to Nashville convinced me that I really need to go back there for a much longer visit. The other places on the itinerary... I enjoyed visiting, but that short visit was enough. All things considered, though... it was so enjoyable, and I loved seeing what Tennessee, Kentucky, and Alabama were like.

It makes me excited to explore some areas of the Midwest I have yet to see. Mackinaw island looks amazing, and I adore lilacs and I heard they have a lot on the island.
