The drive to the Trail of Tears State Park took about an hour and forty minutes. The park is located on the site where nine of 13 groups of Cherokee Indians crossed the Mississippi River in harsh winter conditions in 1838-39. It is hard to imagine how the Cherokees in their wagons and on foot were able to cross the river.
After our visit, we drove to the airport and flew to Tulsa, Oklahoma. We drove to Tahlequah and stayed at the Holiday Inn.
