And Irish dancing!
One of the big things we found in the plans as we tried to build Titanic was a big square, going down five decks we didnt know what it was for, but we discovered a flooring that had one word: Potatoes. That was the food store for all the third class: you could have sautéed potatoes, fried potatoes, potatoes, mashed potatoes, but all you had was potatoes in third class. A lot of people saying they wanted tickets at that time were New York stockbrokers stuck in a dingy office all day, talking to other people about nothing, I guess, wanting to get back to some reality, some sort of human nature. Because we will have Irish dancing, we will have one-to-one contact in the cabin, the two of you sharing together and 30 of you sharing a bathroom. Thats part of the experience that part of the Titanic. Its not the luxury part.
