http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/barackobama/8981618/Barack-Obama-and-family-go-snorkelling-in-Hawaii.html President Barack Obama and his family spent a warm and sunny afternoon at one of the most popular snorkelling spots on the island of Oahu, where they released four green sea turtles into the water. The Obamas arrived at Hanauma Bay Park on Tuesday after a scenic, 40-minute drive from their multimillion-dollar rented holiday home on Kailua Beach.
The park is a favourite destination for the Obamas, who make an annual trip there during their Christmas holiday in Hawaii – always on Tuesdays, when the park is closed to the public for maintenance.
This year, the president and his family released four green sea turtles into the bay's clear blue water. The 18-month-old turtles were born at Sea Life Park, a nearby marine sanctuary and aquarium that boasts of being the only place in the U.S. that raises green sea turtles in captivity.
The president and his daughters, Malia and Sasha, enjoyed their turtle experience so much that they decided to make a stop at Sea Life Park later in the day. The president appeared briefly before cameras as he left the park, climbed into a waiting SUV and headed back to his holiday rental.
I really don't know how they justify this? Who are they trying to target? What internal polling says this is good PR for him?
