Bacardi

 Did you all know that the Bacardi family is originally from Sitges. Hence, the Bacardi museum just north of the church in the center of town!  Senor Bacardi left Catalunya for the Cuban frontier where he developed his vast empire, starting with cheap labor and sugar cane. 

The museum is a must, especially for the Mojito crowd (Anthony Ledakis).  The original recipe written by hand is hung on the wall.  We sampled the different distillations of rum, and at the end of the tour, we all set at the bar and made our own mojitos.

A great way to start the night!  And yes, Brian, my shirt is tucked into my underwear...
