Description
Imagine my surprise coming across this one day as I was driving towards the Smoky Mountains. This is a new attraction that has opened in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. It is quite an impressive museum to visit. A couple of things that were quite interesting to me were, they have built a replica of the original grand stair case of the Titanic and the cost of building that alone cost more today then it cost to build the entire original ship, also when you first arrive you are handed a boarding pass with a name of a former passenger with a short biography on it, and at the end of the tour there is a wall with the names engraved of those that survived the disaster and then those that didn't. The name on my boarding pass was Mary Hewlitt and she was from Lucknow, India and traveling to go see her son in South Dakota she was along the 706 survivors of the original 2,223 passenger and crew aboard the Titanic that went down at sea on April 10th, 1912.
This photo was taken outside the museum, as no cameras are allowed inside the attraction. Oh I forgot to mention the best part I got to tour this with one the members here, thanks Michael I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

Great capture and an interesting story. How old was the lady from Lucknow, India when the disaster happened and how long did she live? did they provide that information too?
