Are they going to stop and talk to you?
What do they say?
What do you say to them?
You know, all those sort of things.
People were just really getting into the groove, enjoying the fact that this person had come, you know, the head of the church.
But people came from miles around, literally, to the domain.
There's special trains run from Hamilton and things like that.
Buses came from all over the place bringing people.
There is also traditional dancing by members of the Polish community, which means Michael is only yards away from Pope John Paul II as he walks to the stage where the mass will be celebrated.
He had to walk past us and we got the cue, right, he's coming.
So there were two dancers.
We did a very popular Polish dance called the Krakowiak and the other one was a Polonaise dance to Chopin music.
And they said, well, when you run out, just do them again.
And we just did them all to him.
We did the Polonaise, Krakowiak, Polonaise, Krakowiak and just kept doing it.
So he came along, and it was really great.
He walked along with his entourage, with the bishops and cardinals and priests and that, and he was going over to the Mass, and he just stopped to watch for probably about a minute or so, if that.
That famous smile he was renowned for, he just broke into this huge smile, and he spoke, and he just said, beautiful, lovely.
So it reminded him of home.
Michael's father is involved in the actual service, which means Michael has a prime vantage point for the Mass.
