Island to Island connection

Hello all,
My name is Gil Amaral and I work @ the Fishers Island School, that is located on Fishers Island, New York. We have established this blog to communicate with our friends on Isla Mujeres, Mexico. This is also an island that has much in common with us. We are trying to get our students to use a webcam,skype, or e-mail method of communication as the mail is quite slow. We also hope that the students and staff on Isla will also want to do the same to improve their English skills as we improve our Spanish skills. I visited the island last spring and loved it and the people I met. We stayed on Playa Norte @ Na Balam and traveled each day to many beautiful and tranquil spots on Isla. Though I do not live on Fishers Island, I think one of our prettiest beaches is Isabella beach. We also have some of the most beautiful views from our two golf courses. We look forward to hearing from folks.
