Pope Francis greets cheering Easter crowds from popemobile | ABS-CBN News

Описание: Pope Francis entered St. Peter's Square on Sunday (April 20) in an open-air popemobile for the first time since surviving double pneumonia, greeting tens of thousands of Catholics after the Vatican's celebration of Easter Mass.
The 88-year-old pope sat in a raised chair in the back of the white vehicle, as people lined the aisles inside the square, many holding aloft national flags and shouting "viva il papa!" (long live the pope!).
The popemobile briefly stopped at several points around the square, decorated with colourful flowers for Easter, as papal aides brought forward children from the crowd for Francis to bless. The pope gestured with his hands, but only raised them slightly.
Francis, who has been limiting his workload on doctors' orders, did not preside over the Vatican's Easter Mass but appeared at the end of the event for a twice-yearly blessing and message known as the "Urbi et Orbi" (to the city and the world).
