What is the common point between the Titanic and DLP Molly Brown Riverboat ?



You've probably heard that in three days it will be the 100th anniversary of the Titanic tragedy, but did you knew that there is a common point between the Titanic and DLP Molly Brown Riverboat ? The answer is simple: the common point is Molly Brown herself as the real Molly Brown, a quite extraordinary woman, was aboard the Titanic on that fateful night, when the ship hit an iceberg. Molly Brown survived and i thought you may be interested to see how she looked. So here is a rare picture of her giving a cup in gratitude to Arthur Rostron, captain of the Carpathia, the ship who saved 706 passengers of the Titanic.



Just a bit of trivia about DLP riverboat who was refurbished last year, so next time you'll board on the Molly Brown, you will know a bit more about the real Molly Brown, who inspired the ship.
