The day Pope Benedict came to Sydney




There were lots of road closures and redirections of traffic so we caught the bus around town. Here are our favourite sculptures in Chiefley Plaza. We went to Dymocks and had lunch at the State Library where there was a photographic exhibit of artists in their studios. Now I have lots of ideas for the bottom of our home.
We saw the Pope in the back of his limousine being driven up Macquarie St. He looked smaller in real life but he was very happy even joyful, and why wouldn't he be - surrounded by the youthful energy of the world's countries in Sydney for WYD 2008.
