Flashback to 1912

Even as a kid, I was always intrigued with the story of the Titanic. I had a few books on it and I even think at one point, I tried to teach myself morris code (hahaha). Needless to say, I was quite bummed when I missed out on the Titanic artifact exhibit when it came to Phoenix in 2007. I recently happened to google it to see where it was at and discovered it was down in Tucson and decided to take a little road trip with my mom and aunt to see all of the artifacts. It was even better than what I was expecting. The woman who worked there followed us through and told us many different stories of people and facts about the ship that we would not have gotten information on otherwise. There were so many great stories and artifacts and there was even an ice burg there for people to touch. I was shocked to read that they recovered a syringe with the liquid still in it as well as pills in a small glass vile. There was so much information to take in and so many things I made a mental note of to google search! When you first got there, they gave you a real ticket like the ones given to people on the Titanic with real passengers names and some information about them. At the end of the tour, you got to see if you lived or died. All three of us happened to be 1st class passengers, but only two of us lived. Mom was quite bummed she didn't make it. The whole thing was really great and although you couldn't take pictures during the exhibits, I couldn't leave without any (is that orbs in the third picture?haha). We also had some fun going to a large antique mall while we were in Tucson.
