Moving to Majorca

Moving to Majorca is the true, humorous story of an American couple who motor scooter 700 miles across Europe one winter in search of the sun. Fighting roller coaster roads, high winds and higher mountains, their quest takes them halfway to Africa to the island of Majorca. Moving into a coastal villa with no running water they learn how to survive paradise one day at a time. What makes their adventure such a moveable feast are the humorously helpful characters met along the way. They range from the helpful pension lady in Italy who put warm wine bottles in the foot of their bed and stuffed newspapers down their coat fronts for warmth, to houseguests who have to be tricked to leave, and the incomparable Pap on Majorca who with his faithful dog Fugly try to land the islands largest, most uncatchable fish, and almost lose their lives doing it. This book is Provence on wheels. A total delight!
