We went to Ecuador to see Kyle who needs to speak Spanish in order to graduate. He is behind on his spoken languages because he took latin and ancient greek in high school. He took a year of Spanish his freshman year, but language got dropped his second year because of Joseph's death.
Immersion Spanish in Ecuador is a great option (if you can afford it). Kyle is definitely fluent in spanish now and he'll take another year of spanish at georgetown.
We flew down to Ecuador to see Kyle in his new environment, and then over to the Galapagos - definitely an experience.
While on the boat, two families asked me, on two different occasions whether we had other children? Who would ask a family if there are other children? Only people who are attuned enough to realize their is something wrong in the family grouping.
It was uncomfortable - how do you reply - do you have any other children? I reply, "Yes, but it is complicated"
