Obama drops in on Mokulē'ia pal


Advertiser Staff

President Obama paid a visit to an old friend on O'ahu's North Shore yesterday, on Day 7 of his vacation here.

He arrived at the Mokulē'ia home of high school friend Bobby Titcomb yesterday afternoon following a drive that took him past Aloha Stadium and Pearl Harbor, then Schofield Barracks and up to Dillingham Air Field.

Some of the cars that had pulled over to make way for the motorcade honked or waved at the vehicles, as did some in oncoming traffic, according to a media pool report.

After the 58-minute drive, the president's motorcade arrived at the beachfront home and Obama's black SUV pulled into the driveway out of view of the pool press.

He was said to be there with family and friends. The president's motorcade left the house at 7:40 p.m.

Obama began his day, as usual, with a morning workout at Marine Corps Base Hawaii's Semper Fit gym.
