I'm less than a mile from my parish and I cannot hear bells. :(
Pope Benedict XVI is the sixth Pope of my lifetime.
I was born under the Papacy of Pius XII... albeit near the end. :)

God Bless Pope Benedict XVI!
Not sure why but I started crying when they first announced the news that there was a new Pope, then when they announced his name, and again when he began addressing the crowds. Very moving moment and I'm a Protestant!
