It literally means boat walking and refers to the careful way people walk across a crowded harbor or river over a succession of water craft which are floating along.<BR/><BR/>This word represents the Italian way of navigating the myriad rules; assorted criminal enterprises; bureaucratic hurdles and the long lunches, complete August shut down that is the hallmark of Italian society.<BR/><BR/>This blog brings a smile to my lips and a slight shiver of horror to the rest of my body.
