Obama-watching

For the second time in 4 weeks we have spotted President Obama out and about in Brentwood, LA. The first time round we saw roughly 12 large police motorbikes followed by lots of blacked out cars rushing past the end of our street.  Later that evening the local news confirmed it was the President on his way to a fund raising event. This afternoon we noticed lots of police and fire brigade activity around the Post Office area, and eventually four helicopters landed on the nearby park, and a cavalcade of cars sped out.  Once more, apparently, he's here fund-raising.  The police operation was very slick, but all the police officers very polite and friendly as they moved the curious onlookers safely out of the way (whilst letting us still get a good view).

President Obama's car as it sped by us... we clapped and waved like idiots.  Hope he appreciated the gesture!
