President Obama Visited Redwood City!

Last Wednesday, President Obama was in town for a fundraising event. I was so upset that I only heard of the event on Tuesday and that tickets to hear him speak were sold out. How often does a president come to Redwood City? It's been 80 years since the last presidential visit!

The President had a private dinner at a philanthropist's home in Atherton prior to his speaking engagement in downtown Redwood City, so the motorcade was scheduled to take El Camino Real! We live off of El Camino Real, so we left Peyton asleep and my parents had the monitor, and James and I made our way down to the corner to stand watch.

Around 9pm, he came by!

Okay, so we don't know if he was in the first limo, the second limo, one of the SUVs, or riding on a motorcycle (yeah, probably not), but it's still something we won't forget! And, I look forward to one day telling Peyton about the time the President passed near our house! :-)
