Talk to me

Talk to me!  The locals love to talk to us and we love to talk to the locals.  The people who grew up on this island speak 3 to 4 languages.  Mayan was their original language but it is starting to fade away.  Everyone speaks Spanish at home.  All children (like Serrina above) are required to learn English in school.  With friends they speak a cool lauguage of their own called Creole.  It has a Carribiean sound similar to Jamaican.  If they slow it way down for us we can begin to understand it :-)
