Cuba & The Pope


Waiting for the Pope along the parade route
Sept 17-21--Havana, Cuba--One of the most exhilarating and wonderful trip to see The Pope on his travel to Cuba.  Unlike, the high security protocol in other parts of the world, during the Cuban visit the security detail was present but not as ominous as seen in other countries.  We were safe and so was The Pope.  Over a million people gathered along the parade route and at the Sunday mass.
