Kent's Speaking Problems (Magdalena)

A couple weeks after we had returned from our trip to Isabela, my dad was talking about all the "stupid tourists" that were there. He was talking about the French couple that had put volcanic rocks in their backpack after being told not to and about the Russian family who pushed a sea turtle while snorkeling and who also petted an iguana. We were then talking with our host family about a punishment that there should be for tourists that mess with the wildlife. My dad's idea was that the tourists should pet a really spiny sea urchin or impregnate a cactus. The word for impregnate in Spanish is embaraza and the word for hug is abraza. He meant to say they should hug the cactus. And now Ashanti won't let him forget it. :D
