“It was a cold January Saturday evening. The park was beautifully lit. People were cheery. We could see the Matterhorn on our right hand side. Magical is the best description I could find.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSuddenly, I started singing…u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;Somos los tres carros, los Tres Caballeros, y nadie es igual a nosotros…u0026quot;u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhat do I know. My friends all knew the words. 4 guys, ranging from 27 to 31 years old, began forming a chrous line and singing off the top of our lungs…u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI donu0026#39;t know how this happened. This is not, by any stretch of imagination, a popular or wildly succesful film. I guess it just touched us, the way Donald Duck had a mexican friend (Panchito), or the wild u0026quot;Piñatau0026quot; scene, or the strong latin flavour of the film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMemories notwithstanding, we kept on singing… and singing… and singing.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePeople around us seemed to enjoy the show, too.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;Valientes brillamos, como brilla un pesou003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e-Quien dice?!?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNOSOTROS, LOS TRES CABALLEROS!u0026quot;”
