We try to do something different each year for Spring Break. Last year in Chicago would be hard to top, but this year Andrew has been all about the Titanic, so with a recommendation from Betty, we headed to Gatlinburg to see the Titanic Museum, which was awesome. They give each person a name of someone who was on the ship that night and at the end, you find out if your person survived or not. All 3 kids made it but Rick and I both perished. Poor Aubrey, her's died of Meningitis only 4 months after she survived the sinking. Still, it was a very fascinating museum. Rick found us a very awesome cabin, complete with a jacuzzi and pool table (both were hits). We also went to Ober Gatlinburg for a day and rode the Alpine Slide, saw a few bears, and ice skated. The weather was perfect! We love to travel! Next year they are asking to go to D.C. or San Diego. We'll see...
At last! The Titanic Museum! No pictures were allowed inside, but it was very cool!
Giant anchor.
No, he's not saluting, it's just very bright.
Proud of his new Titanic model and book, "888 1/2 Amazing Answers to questions about the Titanic."
Possibly Davis' favorite part- the pool table.
The jacuzzi was a huge hit with these two.
Wrap around porch.
Very steep hill!
Davis decided to check out the jacuzzi, but he wasn't much of a fan.
Rick enjoyed playing pool, too.
View from the Sky Tram headed to Ober Gatlinburg.
Looking for bears.
On our chair lift headed to the Alpine Slide.
Boys behind us. Davis was REALLY nervous. If you look closely, you can see Rick (wearing a yellow shirt) in the chair behind them.
Bears.
More cute bears.
Rick ice skating.
Aubrey ice skating (possibly her favorite part of the whole trip).
