Have you ever been there? We went last year and survived on my LA Spanglish (Mexico and Spain do not have the same Spanish), a couple weeks of Rosetta Stone and an English-Spanish dictionary. I was even able to get some emergency medical work done and rent a car with no translator available.
Oh, and there is this new invention out called a GPS. Works wonders.
