Titanic enthusiasts, historians and people with a close connection to
the modern world's most famous shipping disaster will have a chance to
mark its 100th anniversary with a Titanic commemorative cruise
scheduled for April 2012.
Highlight of the cruise, aboard the Balmoral Cruise Liner, will be a
memorial service above the spot in the North Atlantic where the
Titanic went down, between 11:30 p.m. April 14 and 2:20 a.m. April 15,
exactly 100 years to the minute after the event.
After the memorial, the ship, carrying 1,039 passengers - exactly the
same number as carried by the Titanic - will stop in Halifax, Nova
Scotia to visit the cemeteries where Titanic victims are buried. It
will then continue on to New York, the Titanic's ultimate destination.
More information, including how to book, can be found on the Titanic
Memorial Cruise official website. http://www.titanicmemorialcruise.co.uk/
I hope it's not a one wat trip.

No gales & no torrential rain today. The French must be getting it
all.

This cruise caused quite a stir in the cruising forums I subscribe to with
all sorts of comments such as 'Let's hope they miss the Iceberg this time'
and the alternative view, 'What if there is no Iceberg to hit?'
I believe it sold out quite quickly
