Kids news: Titanic's Centenarian

Hello, guys! I'm so sorry I couldn't write this special report yesterday, the fact is that I found myself having an exam today the one I didn't count with, the one in the end hasn't been made but well... I'm not here to tell you about my "problems". The thing's that today I didn't have homework and so, let's write! With some music, we turn ourselves on.

This "special report" (or article, as you may want it), you know for the title that it's about the Titanic's centenarian, the Dreams Ship. I didn't really know how to write this review. At first I thought about writing all my oral exposition for last year at school about the Titanic but then I realized it wasn't the best option.

According to this we summarize it and we'll see how it ends, agree?

Titanic was a great ship, which completed name was RMS Titanic (Royal Mail Steamship Titanic). It was White Star Line's company second project, preceded by the Olympic (a great sensation in those times) and followed by what was meant to be named Gigantic, but because of the consequences changed to be Britannic.

After lots of years of agreements and a long and laborious work on the ship, Titanic got finished and it was launched to the sea in April the 10th of that very 1912. Lots of passengers, the best ship of that times, luxurious personified... Definitely: PARADISE.

So was it that it began to be known as the "Dreams Ship".

It left from Shoutampton in Ireland for France, were it picked up lots of French passengers and then turned towards America. The place to the one it never arrived because of that captain and other people meddled in the matter accelerated the ship (for arriving a day earlier to New York and so gain lots of reconnaissances) while they were entering to icebergs zone, and so they couldn't avoid to crush with one.

Finally, at twelve past that fourteen of April of the same year the Titanic sank. More than one thousand people died and very few survived. Like this, one of the most tragic naval accidents in history took place.

And this year it's the centenarian on this event. We pay homage to those who died and to those who survived and we remember one of the most impressive events from the XX century.

If you like the topic I recommend Titanic's film in 3D in cinemas, they revive the one from Leonardo Di'Caprio and Kate Winslet and (although I haven't seen it yet at theaters) the critics tell it's really good.

A very big greeting and I leave you two photos on the ship! (One's as how it was before it sank and the other one how it looks nowadays. There are coordinates for you to find it in the Google Earth, finding out how it's like today).
