Sitges

Yesterday I went to Sitges, a nice beach town about 45 minutes by train outside of Barcelona. The beaches there are much nicer than in BCN. They're smaller, but not as busy as those in Barcelona.

One of things I was most excited about in Sitges was the Bacardi museum!! Unfortunately, it was closed, and I was sad. While Bacardi is a Cuban brand, its creator was from Sitges originally. The story (according to Wikipedia, at least) on Bacardi's origins is actually quite interesting. Before Bacardi, no clear rum existed, and rum was considered to be a "lowbrow" drink (think pirates).

Look at how pretty Sitges is!
