| As always, we waited way too long to book summer flights. The plan was Mexico City for mid-July but flights are bananas. Any place we can fly, that is Spanish speaking, that would be more reasonable and a decent get away? |

Yes. We are considering it. Where/what would you recommend? We have two upper elementary kids and are NOT interested in an all inclusive type experience. |

My kids are in a Spanish immersion program and visiting Belize last year gave them such a confidence boost (they enjoyed being our translators!) Vieques is a great idea. I was thinking of Cuelebra. Maybe a couple days in San Juan and then there. |

Yours are apparently more outgoing than mine. Ours are pretty solid Spanish speakers, but when we went to a Spanish speaking country, they had no desire to speak to others unless forced to. That's why I was asking- it was kind of a bust for us in the idea of "expose them to Latino/Spanish culture/language", partially because most people in tourist-fronting jobs speak English. |

Are you kidding me? Belize is English speaking. Sure there are some Spanish speakers there, but that’s true here too. |
