Tonight I saw Obama!















Don't you just love it when you really feel like the luckiest person in the world? Tonight I feel like that, it's been such a cool night! As you know Obama is in town, to recieve the Nobel Peace Price. I wasn't sure if I'd even be able to get a glimpse of him, but I did. My friend Ingrid and I went downtown to stand in front of Grand Hotel where Obama was expected to wave from the balcony. I'm glad we came early, we ended up standing right in the front, and there was about ten thousand people there.
Obama fans, curious viewers, a huge torch parade, and way, way back a demonstration.
It was all peaceful though, like it should be. Barack and Michelle showed up smiling, and they were so beautiful. I just love them. Wonderful night, and I guess something to tell the grandkids if I ever get some;)
