Crossing the US on I-80, you'll find yourself crossing the Mississippi at Davenport, Iowa, one of what is know as the "Quad Cities."

Located on the border of Iowa and Illinois, the Quad Cities are the only place where the Mississippi River runs east and west.

This area is full of things to discover and is an easy day trip from Chicago.
