We just got back from The Domain, where we watched the Pope drive by in the Popemobile.  We were about 15 feet from him.  There were so many people packed in, cheering, waving flags — it was great!  This morning we walked down to the harbor for dawn and there was adoration and relics of Mother Teresa

We just got back from watching the Pope drive by The Domain in the Popemobile.  We have a short amount of time before we have our evening prayer service.  It was fun in The Domain.  We got to talk to a bunch of people from all over and watch the Pope’s address on a large video monitor.  When he passed by, we were about 15-20 feet away.  There were lots of people all pressed in to get a glimpse, cheering and waving flags.  🙂  He zipped by pretty quick.  It was very exciting.  Then, we walked back to the hotel — Dave played his guitar and we all sang along the way.  Earlier this morning, we walked down to the harbour for dawn, there was adoration and relics of Mother Teresa, a tour of the Sydney Opera House, catechesis, and some shopping along the Darling Harbour boardwalk.  Tomorrow, there will be Stations of the Cross.
