Pope Francis arrived at Rome's Fiumicino Airport shortly after 10 p.m. A 10-hour flight awaited him. <\/p>\n
As usual, once takeoff was complete, the pope briefly greeted the journalists <\/strong>who are joining him on this new trip to Asia. He spoke around 10:30 p.m. <\/p>\n POPE FRANCIS<\/strong> That's just what he did. He greeted the professionals who are traveling with him on the papal plane one by one. The pope even wished a Spanish journalist a happy birthday<\/strong>, which coincided with the beginning of the trip. <\/p>\n \u201cCristina Cabrejas. Today is her birthday. She's a journalist at EFE.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWill you give me two kisses?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n After a long night flying over Croatia, Bosnia Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, Bulgaria, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India, Pope Francis landed in Yangon<\/strong> a little before 8 a.m. Rome time. <\/p>\n As the pope had already mentioned on the flight, it was hot \u2013 almost 90 degrees with 70-percent humidity. <\/p>\n On the ground, he was welcomed by a delegate of the president of Myanmar and bishops from the country<\/strong>. Cardinal Bo greeted him enthusiastically. <\/p>\n \u201cHoly Father. Welcome. Welcome.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Later, Pope Francis greeted the rest of the bishops and these little girls dressed in traditional attire who, although a bit shy at first, gave the pope the sweetest of welcomes with these hugs. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" November 27, 2017.
