"How much snakes?" Should be "Cuanto cuesta?"

Now THAT's funny!

Hey,... you got your graemlins working

Como se llama aquel serpiente? My keyboarding is no better than my spanish.

Hi, am new to the board and reading all the fun comments! We arrive in AC June 25-July 2. Have never been...do I need to learn Spanish???

Wow -if you can learn Spanish between now and June 25 I'd like to hire you to teach me your language skill methods!

Belize is an English speaking country and almost everyone speaks English as well as other languages and blends thereof

No language skills here...saw this board and enjoyed the humor...then began to wonder about the Spanish. Thanks for reassurance!
