From the 16 to the 21 of August Madrid celebrated an international meeting of the catholic youth with the Pope Benedict XVI.
The news reported that there were 6 million people in Madrid those days and it was difficult to feed everyone. The temperatures were high and the firemen tried to keep the people cool by watering them with a hose.
The Pope celebrated a mass at the Cibeles Square that could be followed on TV.
But there was a demonstration against the Pope’s visit and the police had to stop it by using the force because there were fights between the two sides.
