I fell behind!

And now I am at the airport on my way home to the States. But let me go ahead and give you some pictures from this final leg in my Italian journey. From Ostuni, I took the train to Bari, the biggest city of Puglia region. It definitely felt larger than any of my stops so far this trip (other than Athens, of course).

But it was a very lovely city as cities go. It sits along the coast...

...and has a charming old town like most Italian towns and cities do. In this one, there is a little street where a bunch of women spend their days making orecchiette, "little ears," the regionally typical pasta shape.

Which wasn't the only reason it was fun to wander Old Town.
