For those who love baseball this is the time to visit Rome. After the first rounds, held in Germany and Croatia the Eternal City will host the finals of the 2009 baseball world cup, an event any baseball fan would love to witness.

Actually the match won’t take place in Rome but in Nettuno, a town located only a short train trip away from the city. A good strategy in this situation would be to take a room in Rome, enjoy all the beauty the city has to offer and then take the train to Nettuno to attend the finals. The surviving teams so far are the Netherlands,South Korea, Chinese Taipei, Netherlands Antilles, Venezuela, Japan, Cuba, Spain,Australia, Puerto Rico, Nicaragua, Canada, The United States and Mexico…which one is your favorite?

When it comes to find quality accomodation strategically located, Hotel Des Artistes and Yes Hotel are unbeatable. Both are located near the termini station (Yes hotel is just around the corner from it!) allowing its guests to have incredible vacations, complete with many interesting sidetrips.

Organized by the Italian Federation  of Equestrian Sports this event has reached its 76^th edition, to be held from May 22nd to 25th 2009 in Rome, at the historic Villa Borghese.

The story of the competition begins in 1928 with four teams  (France, Poland, Spain and Italy) and with an Italian, the captain Sandro Bettoni as the great protagonist with three individual victories and a great contribution that helped his team to obtain the Cup of the Nations.

Since then the increasing prestige of the demonstration has attracted many kings, presidents, ambassadorial, and important characters of the politics of and the social and cultural life.

The Roman contest is still recognized as one of the most fascinating horse shows in the World and as such has been inserted among the eight appointments of the Samsung Super League by 2003, a sort of Great Slam, the circuit of the best European contests to which the eight best teams of the world are invited.

On Sunday March 1 2009 the 35th edition of the Roma-Ostia Race will take place.

The race starts at 9.30 in the morning, so all the runners have to gather at the starting gate at 8.30 at the “Palazzo dello Sport”, Palalottomatica (Roma Eur) and they must be in the starting grid by 9.15.

Starting at the Palazzo dello Sport, the route runs the entire length of via Cristoforo Colombo, then up and down the seafront to the finish line at the round-about i(La Rotonda) in Ostia. Ostia itself is famous for being the port where the romans sailed from during great battles. The marathon also happens to be one of the most popular marathons in the Lazio region.

Water will be provided for thirsty runners during the marathon. There will also be an ambulance behind the last athlete. At the finish line there will be refreshments including water, tea and fruit.

Each runner’s time will be monitored from the moment he (or she) passes the starting line until the moment they pass the finish line. Time and ranking will be available immediately after the race.

If anyone wants to run in this 21 km-race (or 13 miles), the price is 20 euros from November 29^th to January 9^th, 25 euros from January 10^th to 30^th, or 30 euros from January 31^st to February 9^th.

At the starting point, the runners will be subdivided into five grids according to their bib numbers. The bibs of each grid will be different colours. If you are thinking of taking part in the race or coming to watch, why not look at the great rooms you can stay in at Yes Hotel, Rome. Being so well connected to Ostia and the centre of Rome, getting there is little hassle.
