WYD Updates
19Aug2005 [france]
Currently in Cologne, here for a couple more nights... The atmosphere is amazing, the city has been at a standstill but bustling with people for days! Couple small bits of news:
- Going to go backstage and up on the stage with hundreds of other people and the Pope on Sunday -- it will be much closer than our already close A2 section
- Saw the most amazing musical performance this afternoon -- I tripped into Bonn and while I was there decided to watch a jazz/gospel performance. Either I went to the wrong place or it changed without me knowing, but I ended up seeing (still very jazzy) a German group called Cyminology -- I already loved the girl singing but when she did her jazzy scream I was hooked
- And I was under the impression the official announcement wasn't till Sunday midday, but Steve slipped this morning, and now the WYD news site is reporting it as fact anyway -- "the winner is Sydney", World Youth Day July 2008
