The other day I found a video on YouTube of Disney's very own Donald Duck visiting Lake Titicaca, located in Southern Peru along the border with Bolivia. The first clip is taken from the 1943 Disney film "Saludos Amigos" which is a very entertaining, educating and cultural video. In the film Disney offers some live footage of Peru from the 1940's which I found to be quite interesting and amazing to see. The film has some great fun and important facts included about the Lake Titicaca Region and it's surroundings.
This clip is in Italian I believe but has an english translation included:
Here is the English version of the above clip for those who don't want to hear Donald speaking Italian.
Here are some other clips from the Disney movie that include some other recognizable characters, here is an interesting comparison by Disney of the differences and similarities between US cowboys and Argentinean Gauchos:
Finally one about Brasil, featuring Donald. You may need a Portuguese-English Dictionary for the first part of this film! I can honestly say there are few Disney films these days that portray intoxication, smoking and alcohol consumption, Aww the good ole' days! :
