Nativity Scene at St. Peters Square gets the finishing touches

It was John Paul II wish to turn St. Peters Square into a miniature nativity scene every year for Christmas. Its been 27 years since the first one was set up, but every year since, mystery surrounds what the finished piece will look like since its kept a secret until inauguration day.

We like to think of it as a surprise, in fact its not unveiled until the 24th, in the evening, Christmas day.
