Cultural Awakenings

This is Dan. Dan never had a mojito before this picture was taken. When he told me this I felt obligated to introduce him. It is, after all, my duty as an advocate for cultural immersion. So we immersed ourselves in a whirlwind of mint, white rum, lime, a touch of sparkling water and one raw sugar cane (the magic touch). Dan was impressed, so much so that we eventually found ourselves on the upstairs level of Havana Village in Washington DC's Adams Morgan neighborhood dancing salsa (or trying to) with some lovely ladies.

Havana Village was the perfect setting and the cool thing about this place is that it offers free salsa classes! So if you are ever in the DC area and in need of some serious salsa action, you now know where to go. While you are there, think of Dan and that happy look on his face and grab a mojito.
