SECOND ANNUAL RUM TASTING A BIG HIT!

The rally organizers hosted the second annual rum tasting event at the Marina La Cruz Sky Bar.  We watched a great sunset while sampling 14 different rums. 

The event began with a sampling of 9 different rums followed by a vertical tasting of Flor de Cana ranging from 4 years to 18 years.  A slide show of highlights of El Salvador and touring photos of Ecuador and Peru ran continiously.  The local spa offered free massages and the marina restaurant provided snacks for all.  The highlight of the event was the sampling of 23-year old Zacapa rum from Guatemala.

Over forty people from 22 boats entered in the rally were in attendance.  It was a great opportunity for the people to meet others who are sailing to El Salvador.

The final rally seminar in Mexico is scheduled for Jan 18 at the La Cruz Marina and the last seminar of the season is scheduled for Jan 28 at the West Marine store in San Diego.  We are looking forward to meeting each boat as they arrive in Bahia.
