Today Pope Benidict XVI arrived in Spain!! We had a wounderful opening ceremony where most of us were just 25 meters away for the Pope-mobile. We walked down to the plaza at 3 and the Pope arrived at 7:30. The wait for the Pope went quickly and the shade made us more comfortable then most pilgrims.
Our day in Mardid was full of adventures including pickpocketing gypsies, flashmobs and people falling threw bus-stop roofes. We are all having a good time trading stuff and showing off our Canadian swag.
Seven days left in the beautiful ciry of Madrid! But these seven days will be filled with adventure and excitement!
We saw the Pope's arrival in TV.
ReplyDelete25 meters away! you couldn't ask for better.
Hopefully nobody from the group got pickpocket.
Let God's love keep you safe at all times and your days ahead continue to be filled of his presence.
Buenas noches, saludos y bendiciones
