The "pasta ladies" in Bari, Italy, are a famous attraction in the city's old quarter. These ladies, often older women, make traditional handmade pasta on the streets or in the doorways of their homes. The most famous pasta they make is orecchiette, which means 'little ears' in Italian, because of the shape of the pasta. These women prepare the pasta with a combination of durum wheat semolina and water, and shape each orecchiette using a knife and their fingers, a skill passed down from generation to generation. The process is a fascinating spectacle. Observing the pasta ladies in Bari is a unique experience that gives visitors a deeper understanding of local culture and traditions, and underlines the value of handmade food in Italian cuisine. I thought this was the nicest part of Bari and I walked through the street again, but this time with my mobile phone on film mode ;).
The sailboat show is whizzing by - already day 3. It has been an amazing chance to meet everyone and see how these propellers have made their sailing lives better. I discovered we have Autoprop off to Antarctica on an epic voyage. We have a lot of new owners who have taken the plunge on Leopard catamarans and are thrilled with the propellers and other customers thanking us for years of support as they sadly sell their boats and retire to California to be closer to the newly arrived grandkids. Be sure to come find us on booth B1 and say hello!
