2000 Rome Pilgrims
Arrival at the La Rovere Hotel, 400 yards from St. Peter's Square. Very travel weary, but ready to go. Our very first look at St. Peter's and our very first photograph of this magnificent Basilica Picking up our passes at the Papal Palace for Palm Sunday Mass. The main altar in St. Peter's - also called the Papal Altar; the tomb of St. Peter is down and to the right in this photo. The back of the Papal Altar.

Palm Sunday
Joyful waiting. More waiting His Holiness, John Paul II, arrives amid many palms. Up the steps in one of several Pope-mobiles. His Holiness through a long lens - nobody gets to sit that close.

The Offertory of the Mass The Pope tours the Square giving hundreds of thousands of the faithful a treasured Kodak Moment. A sea of Cardinals and Bishops. A beautiful Palm Sunday sky above St. Peter's. On the roof is Christ with St. John the Baptist and eleven Apostles. The statues of Sts. Peter and Paul are down on the corners of the steps leading to St. Peter's. Looking west from the Umberto Bridge toward St. Peter's and the Vatican
