Iglesias
















Had a great dinner with Marisa Dessi (host Rotarian) and her family last night!!! Big vocation day today. Visted a very impressive meat company by the name of Salumitaliani (or Porro). They were very advanced with technology and had an amazing inventory system for thier products. Visited a small pasta facility, family owned. The plant was close to 40 years old, but had been updated with new equiupment and looked brand new. It was great to see this process. We had lunch and a tour at a wine factory and then visted Porto Flavio, an old mining area used here in Iglesias. We were underground in the mining tunnels with hard hats and flashlights.
