13 Photos of Obama Living His Best Life on Vacay
Serving the U.S. as President for two terms is exhausting work, so it's no surprise that Barack Obama embraced his newfound freedom from politics with a relaxing, sunny vacation. After hitting up Palm Spring in the days following his D.C. departure, the former-POTUS spent time on the white sand beaches of the British Virgin Islands with Michelle and British billionaire Richard Branson.
Photos taken of Obama during his vacation show that the former president's two-week break is most definitely serving him well. While previous vacation images showed Obama in button-ups, he now sports backwards baseball caps. Instead of taking leisurely bike rides, he opts for extreme sports, like kitesurfing, which were previously banned by the Secret Service.
Below, here are all the best images of Obama giving Americans serious FOMO as he takes on the tropics.
