Geometry of a rainbow

Unfortunately, your answer is incorrect.

The light components reach the second observer from different raindrops. Because the colour components leave the raindrops at a very specific angle, the raindrops redirecting the light to the eyes are in a different position for each observer. The second observer sees another rainbow, which is farther behind.

Think about what this means for Julia. What will happen when she goes towards the rainbow?
