A Visit from the Papa!

Well today was a big day in Sansepolcro! The Pope came to visit! Katy and I were lucky enough to receive tickets. We were even luckier to stand in the main piazza for an hour and a half in the pouring rain before the Pope arrived. The rain even managed to stop when he emerged from the main cathedral; it really was a miracle!

Freezing in the piazza

Troppo piove!

A sea of umbrellas

Papa

Hand shaking

Speech to caro Sansepolcro (dear Sansepolcro)


Just because.... You have to stand in the freezing rain, it's THE POPE!
