A Drink Fit for the Titanic

I am going to see the movie The Titanic in 3D on Saturday. I'm going with two of my very fun bff's at the 5:10 showing. This will be my first 3D movie experience, so I'm hoping it will be pretty fun to see some of the effects actually come at me in 3D. I'll probably flinch a few times if a gush of water get's splashed at me in 3D. It wouldn't surprise me, I will probably fall for it hook line and sinker (no pun intended).

My Brother Chad on the other hand? No, he probably doesn't flinch at much. You see he is a BIG movie buff and fan of spotting all of the defects and misprints while watching any movie. I am kinda glad I don't have his gift to see every time a seen goes back and forth and one second there's a wine glass on the table and the next second it's mysteriously disappeared.
There was an article I came across with some really cool photos, showing passengers who were about to embark on a "Titanic" like voyage on a Cruise Ship leaving England. I then began to do some google searches on Titanic Memorial Cruises. There were quite a few, plus one leaving New York. That was going on a similar route that the original cruise was on.
I also saw a news article that one of the cruises had to turn back around, because a passenger had taken ill, so they declared it a medical emergency as a precautionary measure. But it set sail shortly after the passenger was taken off the ship. Glad I wasn't on that one. Food poisoning maybe? Who knows. But I'd be a bit wary about eating any of the ships food, if I saw a sick person on board, for fear that I may get sick from it as well. A risk you take when you cruise I guess!


I have personally only been on 2 cruises so far. One, my Honeymoon with my dh, a seven day Carnival Cruise. One word to describe that vacation? Superb!
The other was a cruise on MSC Cruise Lines, which was a Christmas gift from my In-Laws. Cruised with most of the Family. That was just as wonderful as well. Spending quality, fun times with your family on a Cruise is so worth whatever it costs. Which I'm sure was a pretty penny.
Now, what would you order to drink on the Titanic if you were to set sail on this cruise?
I chose this drink featured by Martha Stewart. It's a Fresh Grapefruit-Campari Cocktails by marthastewart: A sparkling spritzer made of Bittersweet Campari, tangy grapefruit juice, and club soda. Perfect!
