Barack Obama Chilmark, Aug 23 (THAINDIAN NEWS) US President Barack Obama has taken his family for a vacation at the Martha’s Vineyard. The US First family arrived at their vacation spot on last Thursday. And since then they have mostly stayed home and haven’t been seen socially a lot.

Instead the first family has been seen in the public just once. The US President Barack Obama visited a bookstore with his daughters Sasha and Malia. And as expected, there was a huge crowd outside the store. Later the first lady Michelle Obama went out for some dessert with her daughters. Barack Obama was also spotted twice at the golf course. The first family went out for a private picnic on a private beach.

The biggest spoilsport to their vacation plans has been the incessant rain that has plagued the region since a long time.

The Obama’s had arrived at the vacation home on the 19th of August and they plan to return to their official abode – The White House on the 29th of August. In fact the White House had taken ample care to announce the vacation plans of the first family way back in July itself, so that all his official engagements could be taken care off.
