My suspicion is that I could bring alcohol aboard, but I don't drink.

On the white board near the entrance, they listed rules for entering an American port (for the crew). This was hand written, and said, no alcohol in the cabins, no pornography, and no pirated DVDs. Since those are rules for entry, I assume that we'll be met in international waters by a retail ship that sells those things.

So.....Rain Man does take exotic/weird vacations, so this is possible. Then again, he is married and enjoys his creature comforts, so....

Is your wife going?

Your business is going to be ok with you taking like 5 weeks off or whatever? I mean, 19 days just to get there, then time in HK, Vietnam, etc., so....

Inquiring minds want to know!!

My wife has zero interest in traveling via cargo ship, so she'll fly over next month and meet me in Vietnam for the land portion. At the office, I have DaFace, so I figure the firm will be better off without me there.

Well, that is ..... I dunno....some weird combination of awesome, scary, and something that I really don't think I want to do because I'm thinking the awesomeness wears off by like, day three, when the regret starts to set in. But maybe not.

You do take some EXOTIC vacations, I'll certainly say that.

I'm thinking the wife and DaFace are the smart ones....

It is indeed a grand experiment, and once we leave the only way to go is forward. But all indications now are positive, as long as they eventually turn some air conditioning on and serve good food.

The more I think about it, the more I realize that I could honestly bring some good books, and as long as the weather is reasonable and the waves aren't ridiculous, I would have a helluva relaxing time. Too often, the world is entirely too rushed/stressful, and this is an enforced break from that.

My mom said this, too. But she didn't know that I was getting the owner's cabin. I think contractually I get the #1 spot on any lifeboat, along with my choice of survival cracker flavors.

Hopefully low cost travel. I couldn't imagine paying a good amount of money on that much boredom.

Is it typhoon season?

I actually checked at some point when I remembered this, but as amnorix said, I'm in good shape on the typhoon front.

All in all, it's about $3,200 for 19 days when you include the required (and expensive) travel insurance. Apparently it's expensive for them to make a detour if a passenger gets sick, so the risk is not that there's greater danger, but that there's more cost if something happens.

So overall, if you think about a hotel plus food on a vacation, it's pretty comparable, and you get to watch them load and unload containers.

$168.42 per day, meals included. I bet your cruise ship is a BIT more than that. LOL.
