After all, she'd met Ted, her fiance, while both were working in the visual effects unit during the making of the movie 'Titanic, ' she as an assistant camera person and he as the painter of the 45-foot model used to depict the ill-fated ocean liner..
'After all, how do you top the Titanic?' Her solution? The Queen Mary, the enormous ocean liner designed with the tragic lessons learned from the Titanic's construction firmly in mind, which completed 1, 001 crossings of the Atlantic from 1936-1967 without incident.
According to the Web site www.about.com, the number of couples choosing to run away to sea to get married has grown at a 'phenomenal' rate over the last five years.
Carnival Cruise Lines, one of the larger operators, estimates that it will hold 2, 200 weddings aboard its ships in 2001 alone.
'The nice part about that is that your family and friends can attend the ceremony and reception on board and then disembark, while you sail off on your honeymoon.'.
A tropical sunset, soft sea breezes and the gentle rocking of a boat on turquoise water are enough to soften even the hardest of wintry hearts.
Working with a boat captain or a cruise line, the couple can order up everything from a brief 'I do' ceremony aboard to a full-scale wedding reception for hundreds of their closest friends and family, complete with champagne, photographer, video, flowers, string quartet and a commemorative marriage certificate..


SEA OF LOVE

Sea Turtle Love (short story) by Patricia C Behnke on AuthorsDen
Sea Turtle Love Results in a Hatchling’s Return to the Sea .
I gave birth this morning on a north Florida beach — to a sea turtle.
This labor required nothing from me but to stand with my camera taking shots of this hatchling’s first crawl on the sand.
It barely moved at first and the biologist conducting the dig put it in a box of wet sand until it starting moving around.
They continued digging and eventually found the remains of 120 hatched eggs and four eggs that had gone bad.
These are pretty good statistics, but there is no guarantee all 120 of the hatchlings made it to the sea.
Those of us gathered this morning on the beach would keep all predators away from this lone straggler..
When the hatchling began moving around the box, a volunteer placed it on the sand next to the nest so it might remember the precise location of emergence.
If this one turns out to be a female, in approximately 30 years this same turtle most likely will come ashore at Matanzas Beach and lay its first batch of eggs..
Volunteering as a sea turtle patroller requires walking the beach before 7 a.m.
By the end of the summer many of the volunteers have decided it is too much.
