Pope's holiday in Australian prior to WYD2008
The Vatican has confirmed that Pope Benedict will spend an extra three days holidaying in Australia prior to World Youth Day 2008 (WYD08), but those in the know about where the Pope will be putting his feet up are staying mum.
The Catholic Weeklyreports that the Pope will undertake his longest trip to Australia, spending eight days here after arriving on July 13.
WYD08 co-ordinator Bishop Anthony Fisher said the recommended venue will be a location that is serene, beautiful and suitable for the leader of the world’s Catholics.
“He will have the opportunity to see some of Australia’s beautiful flora and fauna.”
So, where will the Pope be holidaying?
Perhaps these locations are on the short list: * the Western Plains Zoo at Dubbo * Nimbin * Star City Casino * Kings Cross * God's waiting room (aka the NSW Central Coast)
Odds on he's holidaying at Star City. That way he can continue a global comparison with his own casino's bingo takings.
