So I'm hopping a freighter to China...
Well, actually Vietnam. But I'll make a stop in China.
It just seemed like the thing to do. I'm in Oakland now waiting as they load cargo. I'm the only passenger on a 1,000 foot ship for the next 19 days. Here's my ship: http://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/...:CMA_CGM_RHONE. I got whisked aboard before I could take an exterior photo. Since I'm the only passenger, I get the owner's cabin on the top deck. Here are a few pictures of my cabin area. I also have the use of a lounge on another floor, and I can share the crew's gym. So if anybody needs me, I won't be around for the next few weeks as I sail my private 1,000 foot yacht across the Pacific. |

The Romanian food was good, though the Romanians said it wasn't really authentic. For Easter they made an authentic dinner, and every dish was really fatty meat. I preferred the Sri Lankan Cook's interpretation of Romanian.
Sri Lankan food is like eating flaming gasoline, but it's good if you can get the most non-lethal dishes. And we would often get Sri Lankan bread, which was great.

Here's the view of San Francisco as the ship crossed under the Bay Bridge, headed toward the Pacific Ocean.

Okay, so I've been wandering around in Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand and Japan for the past couple of weeks. Phase 3 begins tomorrow, catching a cruise ship back to Canada via Japan and Russia. I'll post a full report later.
In case you're curious, this is what a gas station looks like in rural Cambodia. Not the truck, the bottles. You buy your gasoline in a used water or liquor bottle. No smoking.

And as for entering Vietnam, let's just say that you're not truly on vacation until you find yourself sitting in a smoke-filled room on a ship off the coast, listening to Vietnamese officials extort cigarettes from Romanians to allow the Romanians to go ashore and visit a brothel.

Okay, starting back now. On a cruise ship this time. Someone had ice cream, so I'm on a mission.
