Thanks for that J and A! We both did the original Destinos series many years ago, through the Open University in BC. We even had a tutor available by phone! A superb series. I did Spanish 100 (part 1) and 101 (part 2) and Gillian did Part 1.
Seriously tempted by Nuevos Destinos though. I see that the original series, both part 1 and part 2 are still available. Wouldn't mind getting the DVDs but $450 USD is too steep. Guess we'll have to stay with the video cassettes! This is the first year we didn't lug them all to Mexico with us!
Glad to see you guys are still at it. We have had to stay close to an airport this year due to my moms health but she is doing better. We went home at Christmas and she is doing better in her new assisted living.
The nuevo destinos definitely is not as interesting as the first series but still has some new dialogue as well as lots of review. Have you done the Sol y Viento film yet? I enjoyed it. Lots of useful conversation I find myself using often when in conversation. What did you think of it?
I am concentrating most of my efforts on German right now but still visit french and Spanish for 20 to 30 minutes at least once a day on a maintenance basis. We are spending most of the summer in Europe this year. Have all the languages covered except Italian and Portuguese. Should be a hoot.
