historic and extraordinary moment. we have not had pope americas since friend or read the 12th in 14 15. so uncharted territory to say the least. what is it like being there as we wait for the current pope to preside over the mass. the funeral mass for a retired pope. >> kristen we are just hearing the welcoming right now. looking back to the piazza right now. it is not at maximum capacity. i'm looking right. now looks about 30 to 40,000 from that scrum capacity. it's about 16,000. we have seen huge crowds though all week. much more than a vatican officials had anticipated. going to st. peters basilica to pay their respects. they've got maybe 30,000 or so. in the last three days we have seen more than 200,000. and people here know that they are witnessing history. they are witnessing unprecedented, possible blueprint of what we could see in the future. of future retired pope's
