The musesum was so great! There were so many different exhibits and things inside to see, we were there for more than 3 and a half hours! I am absolutely obsessed with titanic and I'm so happy we went!
It was when we were leaving when we saw that there was a smaller ship beside the musesum so we walked over to check it out and we ended up getting tickets and going inside because we found out it was the actual tender ship that carried 1st and 2nd class passengers from Southhampton to the titanic!
A Tender ship is a small ship used to carry passengers or cargo to larger vessels.
So on this ship we went on a tour of it and learned a lot more about these types of ships and titanic itself. Remember this was the actual ship that carried passengers to the titanic, so there were actual chairs and benches still on it as well as different kinds of linen.
After we went through the tour of the "Nomadic" that's the ships name. We walked to the centre of the city, we stopped at a pub for a drink then went on our way to do a little shopping. After our shopping we went out for supper a a little restaurant. OH MY GOD this place most likely has the BEST soup in the entire world!! It was so good! Me and dad didn't even get soup, we got our own meals but once we tasted moms soup we had to get a bowl of our own to share. One of the best soups I have ever had in my entire life! It's right up there with grandmas famous chicken noodle soup! :)
After supper we caught a cab back to the b&b and packed up all our things for in the morning both me mom and dad were going separate ways. I am going to one airport to leave for Edinburgh. And mom and dad are headed to another airport to leave for London, where they will wait for their connecting flight to Edmonton later that afternoon.
Our cabs for the airport were coming at 6am so we just relaxed after we packed up and then slept quick for the early morning to come.
