A Salty Piece Of Land + CD [J0225]

2004 - HCDJ Nice clean condition. Includes CD still sealed. Wander to 'where the song of the ocean / Meets the salty piece of land' with Tully Mars, washed up from Margaritaville and in the mood for monkeyshines—in his shimmering Caribbean epic by the late king of tropical rock, Jimmy Buffett. It's not on any chart, but the tropical island of Cayo Loco is the perfect place to run away from all your problems. Waking from a ganja buzz on the beach in Tulum, Tully can't believe his eyes when a 142-foot schooner emerges out of the ocean mist. At its helm is Cleopatra Highbourne, the eccentric 101-year-old sea captain who will take him to a lighthouse on a salty piece of land that will change his life forever. From a lovely sunset sail in Punta Margarita to a wild spring-break foam party in San Pedro, Tully encounters an assortment of treasure hunters, rock stars, sailors, seaplane pilots, pirates, and even a ghost or two.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "A fun book that reinforces our need for escapism in this world and into the Caribbean seas."; "Colorful descriptions of locations and people and quips of humor create a great escape from real life. Go into this book with the grain of salt that it is and you'll enjoy it."; "The story is very much in Buffett's 'Margaritaville' style - tropical islands, eccentric characters, sailing, fishing, bars, treasure hunters, and a search for meaning mixed with humor and adventure."
