It appears Popes ,like Presidents and Prime Ministers , really don't have typical vacations. I bet that like President Bush,or Prime Minister Howard or someone in their position, what they have to deal with on a average day of a vacation would have us stressed beyond belief.
Being a Pope appears to be the same. The Pope is in the middle of his three week vaction right now in Italy. However it appears to have a lot of events and engagements in it. Also he is going to be working on his book and perhaps starting to work on a new encyclical. Sipping Drinks by the pool in Cancun this is not.
One of these events was a question and answer session with 400 priests that sounds quite interesting. We are getting bit and pieces of what was talked about. Here John Allen talks about how the Pope links Natural Law and the environment. This Catholic News Agency reports that the Pope talked about the debate btween evolution and natural design(The Pope calls it Creationism) here.
It seems like a very interesting question and answer session. If there is a full transcipt available I shall post it.
Update- I have found a full english Transcript
