Pope On A Boat In Venice

The Arrival


....and then the departure






Pope Benedict XVI sails on 'Batolina' a historic gondola from St Mark's square to the Basilica della Salute in Venice during the pontifical pastoral visit to Aquilea and Venice on May 8, 2011. Pope Benedict XVI was rowed across Venice's spectacular Grand Canal in a luxury gondola on Sunday, with his four 'gondoliers' fighting off fierce competition for the honour.
