Papa Francesco a Firenze

Papa Francesco a Firenze

Papa Francesco arrived in Florence!  The city was stirring with excitement as many gathered to get a glimpse of Pope Francis.  Large screens were set up in Piazza Santa Croce and Piazza della Signoria so the public could watch him live throughout his visit.   Later today he will be having lunch with the homeless at Santissima Annunziata.  The highlight of his visit will be a mass at Stadio Franchi before 50,000 ticket holders.  This mass can also be watched live by all on the large screens in the aforementioned piazzas.

Here is a quick video of Papa Francesco enroute to the baptistry from Piazza San Marco.
