Pope John Paul II made his long wished-for historic pilgrimage to the Middle East from March 21 to March 26, 2000. He visited Israel and Jordan, visiting major biblical sites from the life of Jesus along the way. In anticipation of the upcoming visit ot Pope Benedict XVI to the region (review Pope Benedict's XVI ittinerary at http://www.travelujah.com/blogs/entry/Papal-Itinerary-to-the-Holy-Land ), http://www.travelujah.com is broadcasting this historic visit of of Pope John Paul II. This video clip was gratiously provided to us by Israel's Ministry of Tourisim.
I remember watching this visit live on television in Poland. It was a different visit than Benedict's, it was a Jubilee pilgrimage. Late Ezer Weizman with his wife Reuma said a heartfelt welcome at Ben Gurion airport in Tel Aviv.
