    Villa Borghese is a fantastic place to exercise, whether biking or running. It has fairly evenly paved streets, a rarity in Rome, and quite a few paths as well. For those with dogs, the entrance near the Modern Art Museum, is the beginning of a long stretch towards the zoo where it is allowed and encouraged to let your dogs roam. In any case, it is a perfect way to get your exercise and try to burn off all those pasta calories!!

    We in the USA defnitely do not have the appreciation of soocer (futbol), that almost every other country in the world has. Italy is definitely one of those countries that loves its soccer. All of Italy's good teams play in the Seria A (Series A). Just like our baseball teams, they have a "minor league system, Seria B, etc. But, unlike our baseball farm system, its not players who can leave the lower team, its the whole TEAM that can be moved up or down leagues based on their performance. Of course, players can, and do, switch teams, just like in the USA.

    Oh yeah, and they make BIG bucks too....

     Less than a hundred Euro for a black pinstripe suit. I'm impressed. But, what's with the Starbuck's in your hand at Feltrinelli?!
