Obama-shi.
New American history has just started today!!
Here in Japan, many people watched his first speech as a president on TV.
Do you happen to know we have Obama city in Japan?↓↓

It's in Fukui prefecture, an hour by plane from Tokyo.
Obama city became famous during the presidential election campaign last year.
Some people living there made a support group called
"Group that Supports Barack Obama Voluntarily" and became the news.
You might have heard about it.
I think(hope), President Obama will come to visit Obama city throughout his presidency☆

It's a road, "Route 162."
This is probably the best way to get to Obama City from Kyoto.
