Bush gets warm welcome at Vatican
Pope Benedict XVI took President Bush on a rare stroll through the lush grounds of the Vatican Gardens today, stopping at a grotto where the pontiff prays daily.
“Your eminence, you’re looking good,” Bush told the pope shortly after arriving at the Vatican, launching the leaders’ third visit together.
Normally, VIPS are received in the pope’s library in the Apostolic Palace. That’s where Bush had his first meeting with Benedict in June 2007.
But in a gesture of appreciation for the hearty welcome Bush gave him in Washington in April, Benedict welcomed the president and first lady Laura Bush near St. John’s Tower in the lush Vatican Gardens.
