[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why Spanish speaking?[/quote]

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.

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

The official language of Belize is English, however over 60% of the 
population speaks Spanish.[/quote]

Yes, mainly Salvadoran immigrants just like here. It’s a former British colony, part of the Commonwealth, and squarely an English speaking country. Running around speaking Spanish to migrants there would be majorly cringe. [/quote]

I don't know about you, but even my young kids aren't sprinting up and down hotel lobbies accosting people with their language skills (what people do you know that spend all this time running around on vacations?). What can I tell you? They spoke a lot of Spanish on this trip. There was more than one time when it was very helpful. They had fun. They want to go someplace where they'll need it more. You can continue to be aggrieved but you've now received all the attention you'll get! (You get what you get, and you don't get upset.)[/quote]
