The biggest news story of the week seems to be the arrival of the Pope in Washington D.C. it seems every channel is running some kind of special about his first visit to the U.S. as the Pope.
They are showing him getting out of the plane after an 8 hour long flight, he seemed very fit and not as tired out as one would think a 80 year old man would be after spending that much time traveling, although I’m sure he traveled first class all the way which makes the trip at bit easier on a person.
They say that tomorrow is his 81st birthday and he will be spending the entire day at the White House with the Bush’s in private quarters, I can think of a lot worse places that one could spend their birthday at, that is for sure.
One thing amused me that they were saying about him is that he is the first Pope to have in his own Ipod and that he has a lot of music on it like Beethoven, Bach and all of the other classic classical artists also.
He has a full schedule ahead of him and I’m sure we will all be hearing all the details soon enough.
