Answer 1

If you are not on Linux, you would need to port-forward 8888 to your actual host (Windows or Mac) through the VM.
See "Connect to a Service running inside a docker container from outside"
VBoxManage controlvm "default" natpf1 "tcp-port8888,tcp,,8888,,8888"
VBoxManage controlvm "default" natpf1 "udp-port8888,udp,,8888,,8888"
(Replace default with the name of your docker-machine: see docker-machine ls)
You can also try and use directly the IP of your docker machine:
docker-machine IP <name of VM>
