This is excactly how I recall it too! Ramblas has become an expression in our daily life as well, as a place we meet for a snack, a cup of coffee or just sit and talk. It's in the Rambla we meet for our (almost) weekly friday cake at work.
This looks like our fair grounds during the state fair! Lots of people in the sun. I love this shot Endika! I love that you found a place above the crowds to get the shot from.
