The world at your door





For several million dollars, one can purchase a lavish apartment on a residential cruise ship. The elite residents, a mix from many different countries, live on board with all the amenities one can imagine on a luxury liner, as the ship slowly circumnavigates the globe, staying in most ports from 2 to 5 days. I looked at the May 2010 ports of call for one liner, the itinerary includes Portugal, Spain, France, Monaco and Italy. I suppose if Spain is exhausting, you can sleep in until you're refreshed for Monaco. In Chicago there's a saying, "If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes." That idea has all sorts of applications when money and time are no object.
