I'd rather give you the contact info about a month before your trip. That way, I can call them and tell them to expect you. In regards to San Basilio de Palenque, my only contact is Carlos Perez Hererram carlosantonio10@yahoo.comW Bill Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06114184381454422387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4713119441078458095.post-85113416850686046412012-04-08T16:01:10.557-07:002012-04-08T16:01:10.557-07:00Hello Bill,

Just a heads up, the more Spanish you learn “before” you get down there, the more bang you will get for your buck when you get down there. Classes are dirt cheap compared to classes in the USA.W Bill Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06114184381454422387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4713119441078458095.post-46010327309395615782012-03-11T12:00:05.899-07:002012-03-11T12:00:05.899-07:00I may take the 10.00 offer up later this year.
