I have a scan of the Camino Del Sol record on our Flickr page and I was contacted by Isabelle herself just to say thanks for the picture (which I must add here that this is like for some people being contacted by Cher, I was amazed and thrilled to hear from her). She told me her scan of the cover wasn't very good and she's been using the one I had . A few emails of gracious and heartfelt fandom from yours truly and I asked her if she would have the lyrics to Camino Del Sol handy, and they were kindly and radpidly provided, thus ending my long search for them.
As they don't seem to exist anywhere on the Internet I'm adding them here for anyone else who might be looking for them (very literal English translation in brackets - corrections welcome). Thanks Isabelle!

Hello Wayne
Love the encounter with chanteuse, very exciting and somewhat mcfarlandian.
In regard to the lyrics i think regards amoreux is loving looks, vapeur d'alcool:alcohol fumes, ambiance amicale : friendly atmosphere, cadre agreable : pleasant settings/surroundings, vacances tranquilles:peaceful holidays
Thank you for your help Mistress Bel, you are truly the Intercontinental That Girl.
Macfarlandian - brilliant term.
thanks for the lyrics. it's funny that i had the hardest time with the refrain which is all in English!
Thanks Wayne for sharing the Lyrics. Never get tired of listen this song. I have also wonder where was taken the front picture of the LP. It evokes some perfect spot to chill in a balearic vacation. I have the picture on the wall of my bedroom and my one year son is always point to the picture and smiling as if he was saying "take me there please".
Just for curiosity Is it possible to ask Isabel if she knows were is that place?
Thanks again
Greetings from Lisbon

Hi Miguel, Thanks for the comment. Your son has good taste too. We all want to go there - also I wish I owned all the great furniture in the photo.
Isabelle's Flickr account can be found here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/74279878@N00/ Perhaps you might like to ask her your question directly?
