This handout picture released by the Vatican press office on July 8, 2013 shows Pope Francis looking at a computer while receiving explanations on a boat off Lampedusa island, a key destination of tens of thousands of would-be immigrants from Africa, during his visit on July 8, 2013. In a visit stripped of the usual pomp of papal travel, Francis will cast a wreath into the sea and hold a mass of mourning with a simple cross made from the wood of rickety fishing boats that migrants arrive on.
