A truly beautiful setting, and some exquisitely beautiful music. (Unfortunately, the announcers seem to want talk over quite a lot of it, rather than letting it speak for itself. And shockingly - at least to this Episcopalian - there is actual applause from the hundreds of Bishops in attendance, when the Pope enters.)

I really do not like applause either. I am sure there is some "official" document somewhere that says it is appropriate; whilst I don't expect everyone to know that, the Bishops ought to!
I was really surprised! That beautiful music made the atmophere so solemn and worshipful - and then everybody started clapping!
Something of a buzzkill, really. ;-)
