Embarking on the Voyage of a Lifetime: Titanic II – A Dream of Glamour and Luxury

I have always been interested in the history behind the Titanic.  I had always dreamed of there being an affordable Titanic in our day in which we could travel the high seas in complete luxury.  What an exciting way to travel.  I would be so excited to go on this cruise because I think it would be so glamorous. I would love to bring an old steamer trunk filled with expensive jewelry on board, just like in the movie.  The only problem with that is I don't own any expensive jewelry, only costume jewelry. But, I picture myself wearing a gown and heels rolling my steamer trunk on board. If you enjoy cruise ships and dreamed of traveling on a ship like the Titanic, brace yourself because your dream is about to come true!

I just read in The Telegraph that Australian billionaire Clive Palmer is bringing back the most iconic ship in history - the Titanic!  Titanic II will be a replica of the original with all its grandeur.  The ship will have the same interior as the original with a modern appeal of the vintage cruise experience.  The ship is going to be able to carry 2,435 passengers and will feature a grand staircase and a crystal chandelier.   I can already envision myself strolling down that grand staircase, wearing a gown, my hair in an updo, and crystal earrings dangling and shimmering from the glow of the chandelier.  I love the thought of dressing up for dinner every evening.  I would feel like a glamorous movie star like Elizabeth Taylor from the golden age of Hollywood!

If I have you thinking about what to pack so you too can feel like royalty as you step aboard Titanic II,  the ship is set to sail in 2027.  To me,  it's not just about the journey, but reliving a piece of history.  Some experts are questioning whether a vintage cruise experience like this can be appealing to the modern imagination.  Clive Palmer did think of what the modern customers would want.  He will be adding amenities like an indoor pool, Turkish baths, a movie theater, a smoking room, and an old-fashioned gym. I hope we can meet aboard this once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Spring break always arrives at just the right time. It's when the holiday cheer has totally worn off, and it's also right when spring is around the corner but it's not quite here yet. I remember loving spring break in school. But, even if you're not in school or college anymore, why not take a fun spring break trip this year? If you have a family, all the more reason to do it. If you're solo, that works, too. Thankfully, there are plenty of trendy, cheap spring break destinations available.

If you want to get the most bang for your buck, as they say, stay close to home. It doesn't have to be a staycation. But, why not travel to a town that you've never been to that's within road trip distance? Of course, if you live in a cold climate, you might want to travel to a hot spot. The good news is that a lot of warm spring break destinations have great rates, because tourist is simply their business. So, if you go to a popular spring break spot, chances are they'll have some good deals and be able to cut you a good deal due to just how many people who travel there each year.

The perfect spring break destination is really about getting away from it all. You want a place that fun and exciting. But, you also want a spot that really helps you break away from routine and, hopefully, your electronic devises. Another bonus is if you find a spring break destination near friends who you maybe haven't seen in a while. It can be a really fun trip to find a central location and meet up with long-lost friends.

Read on for some trendy, cheap spring break destinations in the United States. Here's hoping for a super fun spring vacation. Oh, these work for summer, too.
