Totally! And I’d be in period dress the whole time and they’d have to pry my selfie-taking ass out of the bow and I’d run around quoting lines from the movie until my family whacked me over the head with a fireplace poker.
But I’m the girl who loves Renaissance Fairs and Living History museums. It’s the chance to play Dress Up in the actual historical environment that attracts me.
BTW, my grandmother, who was born in 1910, ***hated ***the movie. Her movie review was, “The characters were ridiculous and I couldn’t wait for the boat to sink.”
I’m kinda with you. Sailing on a replica Titanic would be kinda cool, but if you want to revive the old ocean liner (note: not cruise ship) experience I think you can do better by not going back quite so far. A transatlantic trip on the QE2 would have been fun; missed my chance on that but the QM2 is on the route now.
Well, that part would be fun. I LOVE the clothing from that era, and LOVE corsets and big hats. I’ve got the hair for those big Gibson-girl pompadours, too.
But the notion of being on a floating petri dish of norovirus doesn’t excite me.
I voted no, combination or other. I have no sense of direction, so I’d likely spend the entire voyage wandering around and never even finding my cabin. I get queasy on a boat still tied to the dock. I swim like a rock. And I’ve always thought a cruise would be borrrrrrrrrrrrrring. Give me a horse, any day.
You don’t have my category - Yes but :
It needs to be fully compliant with all US health and safety regulations. [I am especially concerned with the shitter:steerage passenger proportions. Also physical cleanliness, as in showers:steerage passenger proportions.]
Must have adequate navigational and warning systems - we do not want to introduce ourselves to mr iceberg the hard way.
and must be able to afford first class passage for mrAru and self - being physically handicapped I can not deal with steerage and perhaps not second class. Which would also allow for one of those spiffy vintage wheelchairs if we are also going in costume.
