Michelle Obama and daughters tour Irish landmark
- 11 years ago
With the U.S. president locked in high-level meetings at a secluded hotel in Northern Ireland, first lady Michelle Obama and her daughters took the chance to cross the border into Ireland.
Michelle Obama, along with daughters Malia and Sasha, visited Wicklow Mountains on Tuesday.
Casually dressed in jeans and jackets against the rainy Irish weather, the Obamas were shown around the national park by a tour guide.
Over the course of centuries, millions of Irish have immigrated to the United States in search of a better life, and there are huge Irish communities in cities such Chicago, where Barack Obama started his political career.
