Now that I have my card reader again, I'm going to catch up on posting some images from the past couple of weeks. This is my best image of the pope riding up Pennsylvania Avenue in the infamous Popemobile. He's just left the White House and is heading up to the papal embassy. I was way at the back of a deep crowd. The excitement of the crowd was fascinating: people in sophisticated business attire were RUNNING to see him. There were also groups of pilgrims who had traveled from afar who were singing, drumming, chanting and having a great time. Of all the coverage of the pope's visit, the most astounding was this first person account of restauranteur Franco Nuschese of Cafe Milano preparing Benedict's lunch. Six months of devoted preparation led to a level of regrettably stunning opulence.
