    Living in Tucson I should know more Spanish than I do.....I can tell you to hold your breath, ask if you are pregnant, bend your knee, and lie on your side.....I am an xray tech!!! Do you think that will come in handy on a cruise???

    Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

    ¿Dónde está el baño ? Is a very necessary phrase...!
    Also- Agua mineral por favor- They will bring you bottled water!

    Talking Need ICE!

    Actually, a great word to know how to say in Spanish is ICE!

    It's easy! Ice in Spanish is pronounced very much like our color YELLOW!

    Just hold your glass up and point to it and say, "Yellow".

    (We speak very comfortable Spanish and always prounce it "yellow" , like the color in English, and they bring ice.)

    Also, it is very rare for folks in Spanish speaking countries not to understand the English words: Thank You and Please! Please, do use them often.
