JOHN PAUL II DEPARTS FOR VACATION IN VALLE D'AOSTA


VATICAN CITY, JUL 10, 2000 (VIS) - Pope John Paul II left this morning at 10:15 from Rome's Ciampino Airport for the hour-long flight to Saint-Christophe where he then travelled by car to Les Combes, in Italy's northern Valle d'Aosta region. The Pope has spent previous vacation periods at Les Combes.

Only one public activity is scheduled for the 13-day rest period: On Sunday, July 16, he will recite the angelus from his vacation retreat.

The Holy Father will leave Valle d'Aosta in late afternoon on Saturday, July 22. He is set to arrive at Ciampino Airport at 7:30 p.m. and go directly to the summer papal residence at Castelgandolfo.
