Americans are getting excited about Pope Francis' first trip to the United States, in which he will make stops in Washington, D.C. and New York City.

The pope is scheduled to arrive Tuesday afternoon, Sept. 22 at Andrews Air Force Base, reports WTOP. During his two-day visit to the nation's capital, he will meet with President Barack Obama, the first lady and bishops. He will also address the U.S. Congress.

Spectators may have a chance to get a glimpse of the pontiff as he's entering and exiting various locations in the District.

Wednesday morning he will stop at the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle on Rhode Island Avenue NW. Later on that afternoon, he will hold an outdoor mass. After speaking to Congress Thursday morning, he will head to Saint Patrick's Church in downtown, and within two hours will walk across the courtyard to the headquarters of Catholic Charities.

Pope Francis will then travel to New York City. He will visit an East Harlem Catholic school and celebrate Mass at Madison Square Garden, reports The New York Times. In addition to stopping by Harlem and MSG, the pope plans to explore Ground Zero, address the United Nations and visit St. Patrick's Cathedral during his first trip to the United States.

His exclusive tour around New York City will begin on Thurs., Sept. 24, with an evening prayer service at St. Patrick's Cathedral. The next day, he will address the U.N. General Assembly and hold an interfaith service at the National September 11 Memorial and Museum at the World Trade Center.
