I was having breakfast in a Mexican restaurant yesterday morning and watched some of the visit on their television. All in Spanish, of course.

It's funny, I hate going to mass every week, but there I sat, watching the entire thing...

They don´t show it over here, unless it´s on CNN or BBC World. Probably because we´re protestants. The catholic population is about 30.000 people here...

CNN had full coverage, as did NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX, FOXNEWS, MSNBC, and Telemundo.

It's funny, I hate going to mass every week, but there I sat, watching the entire thing... Back in 1986, I was at an outdoor Papal mass in San Antonio and got heat stroke. The next day, Pope John Paul was going by my hotel, (the Travelodge, on 4th & Broadway) in his popemobile and I was within 6 feet of him. Nice memory. (seeing the pope, not getting heat stroke.)

When the Pope was in New York back in the 80's, my mom stood out in the pouring rain waiting for his Pope Mobile to ride by en route to wherever he was going. She saw it approach and lifted her arm up with the camera over the crowd of people and snapped a photo of the Pope. I have to find a away to upload that picture....

Great! Maybe you can just scan it and then upload it...
