Day 1: Liveblogging the Pope's arrival
The Pope will be among us soon! Less than 45 minutes at time of posting....
EWTN has live streaming feeds online here, Pope2008 has it embedded here.
The USCCB feed will start live video at 3:45pm.
The pope's plane (Shepherd One) should arrive at 4pm, where he will be greeted by President Bush, etc.
updates....
4:05 PM - I'm watching EWTN, and listening to the bells of the National Shrine ring.
4:12PM - The Pope is here! Walking briskly down the stairs to meet President Bush. Huge response from the crowd. Abp. Wuerl of Washington looking very distinguished. Cardinal Bertone close at hand.
4:15PM - The Pope and President are off to their brief private meeting before the official one tomorrow.
