Oh darn ... any chance that calendar'll reach Asia? If the June photo is anything to go by, the entire calendar must be terrific! :)

Hope it goes on sale here in Georgia! Love to spend a year strolling next to the good Papa Benedict. My birthday's in June, so the featured photo is extra special. (Hope a cat turns up too!)

" really don't think "different poses" is the right phrase to describe how the pope is being photographed"

LOL!!

Anyone with info on purchasing one?

Please, PLEASE don't take this the wrong way--but at very first glance, without reading the leader or any context, I thought I was seeing something like "INSEMINATE" above Papa's photo . . . .

Oh, dear. But this does look lovely. I wonder how we in Canada could get it.

Where is this garden? The geometric hedges, squares and circles, look interesting with Papa standing vigil.

"You'll see a new pope every month!"

Noooooooooooooo! Please don't take us back to 1978. We want the same Pope for many, many years.

I hope this comes to America...love to see the rest of the pics.

Yes, I'm with you Panda Rosa-I would LOVE to spend a year walking beside Papa Benedict! Wouldn't it be cute if there was a picture of him with a cat?

A cat? I love it... except we are "dog" people.

Yes! He told a visiting official at Les Combes this summer who inquired (for his daughter, of course)as to whether the Holy Father still kept cats and Papa responded "Of course I still keep cats!"

I sure hope there's a kitty picture .. we didn't even hear whether he got to greet Chico in Pentling after 2 years' absence.

Aloha from Hawaii
