Spanish Class DVD Feb 20, 2008
By C. Evaul "cherok"
This DVD is interesting and shows travel through Mexican towns. It presents history without forcing it on the students. I like the part about the grasshoppers and mole from Puebla - a dish made of chocolate and peppers. The chocolate segments are enticing. The filming is well done. The host is quite comical and gives a light hearted presentation of what appears to a great deal of fun. Great for a Spanish Class, although you need to view to see if all of the parts are age appropriate for your group.

Ewww spiders from Mars Sep 05, 2010
By Tiger
This really wasn't what I was expecting. Especially the part about Costa Rico. The bikers on Harleys challenging the guy to put a big hairy spider on his head. I thought there would be more factual information.
