POPE BENEDICT XVI was in Mexico yesterday and took the chance to indulge in a bit of the local culture… that is to wear a massive sombrero.

The Pontiff is in Cuba today but we doubt if he’ll be having a cigar. No word yet on the possibility of him donning one of those large Guinness hats if he comes to Ireland this summer.
