rougysays...That was a pretty soundtrack, too.
NicoleBeesays...Wonderful video and music..
antsays...That white clothed gal too!
Almanildosays...Bicycles, electric trams, cars and horse carriages alongside one another. That's an amazing glimpse of the transition to the modern world.
andybesysays...It was interesting to lookup some of the avenues on Google Street View.
Check out the party keg at 1:52
rosser99says...Maybe I'm wrong, but... Set the video to 6:15 (at this point in the video we are on Av. R Argentina) and pull up Google Maps in another tab. Enter "228 Avinguda de la República Argentina, Barcelona, Spain," enter the street view, and make sure you are facing in the Northwest direction. Notice the hills on the horizon. A second or two later in the video, it looks like the tram begins to turn left and then it announced "Calle Graywinckel." Click ahead a few clicks in Google Maps and you can make the same turn on to "Carrer de Craywinckel." Google walk yourself west to the end of Craywinckel where you come to the typical European 3 road intersection. Compare this with the intersection we are approaching at 6:50. ??????

bamdrewsays...its like sending a camera on a submersible explorer back in time, instead of the depths of the ocean...
