Titanic at Idaho Falls

So yesterday we went to Idaho Falls just to get away and we have really wanted to see the Titanic exhibit in the museum. It was really neat. Spencer's favorite was a porthole that they had recovered from the bottom of the sea. It was cracked, so you could see how thick the glass was. I personally liked the perfume that they recovered that still gives off fumes. I could not believe how the ocean preserved but on the other hand destroyed so many things.

At the beginning you were given a boarding pass with the name of a passenger. Three of the four of ours died. What is really interesting is that the one who lived ran into a guy the day before the Titanic sailed who told here she would be a part of a great tragedy but she would survive. Isn't that crazy? Gives me the chills!

The kids favorite part was a 5ft tall ice berg, it was set at 32 degrees and the actual temp of the water the night the Titanic sank was 28. So we could see just how cold it was, they let you touch it and now you know why so many perished from hypothermia. It was so sad! We really enjoyed the exhibit. No cameras allowed so here are the kiddos outside!
