RMS Titanic, The Artifact Exhibition
Thursday, February 23, 2012

Celebrating my belated birthday with Ruiming, beside lunch and dinner, we went on board RMS Titanic! It’s the artifact exhibition happening at Marina Bay Sands (MBS) with real objects and real stories. The ship first set sail in 1912 so it’s going to be their 100th Anniversary. You will get a boarding pass of an actual passenger before you enter and it took us 3 hours to finish viewing the exhibition.

Boarding Pass

There are First and Third class cabins, the Grand Staircase and many other more locations of the Titanic itself to visit. I’m feeling kind of emotional as I read the stories of some passengers as well as the crew, especially when I’m at the Iceberg section and after done watching the documentary.

 Entering First Class Cabin

First Class Cabin, luxurious suites
 
Third class cabin, engines noise can be heard at all time

Anyway, there are “Steel-eating bacteria” which is feeding off the Titanic under the ocean so the wreck might be reduced to nothing in a period of 40 to 60 years later. Overall, this exhibition is really great because you can learn more about the construction of Titanic as well as how the famous ocean-liner sank in the middle of the Atlantic and many more. Get your tickets before the exhibition ends.

Alright, after we are done with the exhibition, we went Suntec "Sizzler" for our dinner. Looking at my stomach, I wonder how many sit-up I got to do in order to get rid of my tummy. I had been eating so much lately lol.

Before heading to bed, I just wanted to say that, I really feel happy and appreciate for friends and relatives that took out their precious time just to celebrate my birthday for me, they really make my day a special one, really appreciated, Thanks for the treat, Thanks for the presents, Thanks for everything, Thank you guys. I assume they read this, good night :)
