The public pope mass yesterday at Tirana

It was a busy day for me. I took the night bus from Skopje on Saturday night and arrived at Tirana in morning. I saw some Taize cafe bar people from Montenegro while I was waiting the shops to be open. 24hour casino and cafes near the big park was very very convenient but not tourists can know how to survive in the early arrival like this way.

I was with some Franciscan sisters including some Asian ones at the square. The pope arrived around 11am and I saw him very very close in my life. Last year, I visited the Pope audience and this year is the pope mass. Not bad for my life experience. Pope Benedict time was one pope audience and one pope mass around the New Year time in 2011.

It was so crowded and I could only see the Pope one time running in front of me or so. It was so fast but I tried to take pictures. He is looking another way but here is the pic I saw something familiar as a poster. I don't know why I cannot link it here.

This is one of the best shot I made from the mass.
