A day to remember and a first for me blogging from my iPhone.
It began with a special and unexpected moment never to be forgotten.
The rest of the day fitted well with this week’s photo challenge: scale as Rome is all about scale at every turn.

Wow! The Pope. You must be a very good soul. You always happen to be in the right place at the right time! Love the travel blog. I’m excited to read daily. Be safe.

Wow how exciting Andrew! I was overcome with emotion when I saw Pope Benedict in 2011 but he wasn’t as close as you were to Pope Francis!

And you. I have a flu-type thing though. But luckily I’m in Rome once a month or so. Tomorrow and on Sunday there is a free exhibition of roses at Roseto Comunale. I planned to go but now doesn’t look good. Have a look: http://www.wantedinrome.com/news/romes-rose-garden-opens-in-october.html
