The rain didn't stop Pope Francis on Wednesday. The 76-year-old pontiff, who lost part of a lung during his youth, got soaked as he braved a brief spring shower to kiss babies and greet the crowd at his weekly general audience in St. Peter's Square.
Zooming around the piazza in his open-air popemobile, Francis had no cover as he made his way through a sea of brightly colored umbrellas, happily stopping to caress and kiss babies handed up to him.
