I found that "climb every mountain" could be turned into a marching song to help me up the Pyrenees!!!

Yes it's important to have "marching" songs, but like today in in the UK it's pissing down:
'Singing in the Rain' http://www.stlyrics.com/lyrics/singinin ... herain.htm

Doo-dloo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-dloo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-dloo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Well today found a local lady who will teach me Spanish, she's coming around tomorrow morning to put stickers all over my house, scary! I don't want to do it internetly & get all the words sounding wrong. I've not met her, she will decide to take me on or not. Hope this works.

Well I'm going to find a Spanish song to learn too!

I feel one part of a successful Camino is knowing some of the Language, & being able to communicate a bit @ least.

There's a great Spanish Christmas carol, which I found myself singing while sitting by the river in Estella. It goes like this and has a catchy tune.

"Pero mira cómo beben los peces en el río.
Pero mira cómo beben por ver a Dios nacido.
Beben y beben y vuelven a beber.
Los peces en el río por ver a Dios nacer."

Approximately...
(But see how the fish in the river drink.
See how they drink on seeing God born.
They drink and drink and drink some more.
The fish in the river on seeing God born.)

See if you can find it on YouTube!
