Sitges - Life in the Pueblo

We had a late lunch and then a wander around the old town, nominally checking the walk-in rates for car hire, but really just exploring the area. Brett was surprised how much the place came alive after five o’clock when siesta finished. We stopped off in a little boutique (which advertised over twenty different styles of men’s white shirt for sale) so that Brett could buy a couple of new ones neither of which, in the end, were white. There seem to be a lot of British-owned businesses here, although thankfully they are blended into the town, rather than being obnoxious Brit’s abroad. None of the ‘little bit of England in Spain’ kind of tourist bars that you see in the more infamous Spanish resorts!

When we got back I spent twenty minutes in the hot tub to relax before having a shower ready for dinner.
