Hi Kevin,
We are heading for Playa Flamenca, about 4 miles out from Torrevieja, hopefully in 4-6 weeks, like a lot of others on this thread we are waiting for our house sale to go through. You mentioned you stop at Rouen, that appears to be to the right of the route OH has been looking at. My sense of direction is NAF! Any tips for the route would be gratefully received!!
Thx
Val

Does moving within Spain count? After a couple of years inland, I'm moving back to the coast this summer.

Thumbs up Re: How Many Are Moving To Spain ??

Jean, You have been busy! What a great thread this is! I have been out all afternoon and it has taken me ages to read all the posts! We all sound a bit like the X-Files now..... "They are out there!" Lol! Anyway, so it's 32 and counting? Good luck to everyone with their house sales, moves (both external and internal!), and bathrooms in progress!
