Back in Spring of 2001, when I was a freshman in high school, I took a school field study trip to tour Spain. Of this trip I have many fond memories. One of the things I saw that I will never forget occured during the beginning of our tour of the country, in Barcelona. When we visited Las Ramblas on I believe our second day, I happened to come across a man posing as a convincing statue that looks exactly like the ones depicted above. In fact, I believe that the man on the left was the very same individual upon whom I gazed. It took me a good few minutes to realize that he wasn't an actual statue.
