Dscribe the event in the picture in Spanish

I had to look at a picture of two guys with bags in a room, similar to a hostel or hotel room, talking to a woman. The description underneath was "The students arrive at the house in Ibarra near the area where they will go on their hiking excursion. Keeping this information in mind, look at the video still and describe in Spanish what you think is going on."

Ellos están mudandarse. El ama de casa es hablando ellos las regalas. Ellos están entusiasmados que hacer senderismo.

Is this short description gramatically correct, and does it make sense?

Thanks!

I think you want to mean:

They are moving. The woman / housewife is telling them the rules (of the house). They are excited about hiking

Ellos están mudándose. La ama de casa les está hablando las reglas (de la casa). Ellos están entusiasmados por hacer senderismo.

Suggestion:

Ellos se hospedarán en la casa. La ama de casa les está diciendo las reglas. (Ellos) Están entusiasmados por hacer senderismo.

They will stay in the house. The housewife is telling them the rules of the house. They are excited about hiking.

I think that's the idea, please correct my English, too.... And, good job Rachel!!!

Sometimes you don't need to put the pronoun as in: Ellos están.... - nelson_rafael, Sep 11, 2011
Thanks! Great answer! Unfortunately, I already submitted my work. :D As far as your english goes, the only thing would be the first sentence "I think you wan to mean." Either use "I think you mean," or you could say "I think you want." - rachelsieg, Sep 11, 2011
Using both is slightly redundant, but not a huge error. Great job! - rachelsieg, Sep 11, 2011
Ah, thank you. - nelson_rafael, Sep 11, 2011
