Titanic Experience


Titanic Experience

Since June 10, 2006, San Francisco's Mascone Center has been home to The Titantic Artifact Exhibit. The movie was good; this was great.

Jessaca and I waited in line for nearly an hour, just to get into the exhibit. Despite a the crowd of frustrated parents trying to wrangle in their kids, the line went quickly. Needless to say, once you get in it is apparent that you are able to experience something totally sureal.

As you make your way through the different chambers, you can't help but feel as though you are on board the ship.

The re-created grand stair case and the cabin quarters were amazing to see first-hand....and when you walk into the blue room that has a replica-like glacier you get a vivid sense what is must have been like in the freezing cold water in the dead of night.

I am not sure where the exhibit is headed next, but if it is anywhere near you, I would encourage you to take a few hours to visit this very worthwhile exerience. It will move you undoubtly.
