Pub In The Park

I will admit, I always liked the idea of throwing darts at a map and making travel plans based on that, but it doesn’t generally seem to work as well in real life as it does in movies and TV shows. Usually I just end up hitting ocean. When I do hit a land mass it’s not usually a place I’d like to go. I’m not doing that this time. This time I have decided I am going to make solid travel plans and I am going to follow in the footsteps of President Obama. It will just be a tour around the United States, but it will be a great summer vacation. I got the idea from an article I read about three months ago about a couple who were following in his footsteps around D.C hoping to catch a glimpse of him. I don’t want to do that, but I figure when I have grand kids this will be the kind of vacation story I will be able to tell them.

I’m not the only one who is thinking this though. Take a us map and choose any city he visited on his way to Presidency. There are Presidential travel packages being set up all over the country. I would say it was a new fad, but the President has always been America’s biggest celebrity and we love to go where celebrities have gone and see what they have seen. It is a little like living vicariously through them, but we get to see it with our own eyes and be there in real time all on our own. Myself and millions like me hope this is going to be the experience we are each looking for.

To give a good idea of some of the most popular places to travel to when following any President, try first the town they were born in, then follow them around their schooling career. This is usually where most people start in these things and can give immense insight into some of the most intimate details of what shaped the President on his way to becoming the man he is today. Taking this advise and a knowledge of a little bit of history, you can actually get into the head of just about anyone on the world globe including people like Gandhi and Mother Teressa.
