American Abroad

Thomas may not have his American citizenship yet (the paperwork is a little complicated), but that didn't stop him from attending his first political rally today! Wearing a blue sweater, a blue & white checked hat, his cool dude sunglasses with the ubiquitous green pacifier and a small American flag draped over the sling, he came with me to a Barack Obama "Yes We Span" event (corny, I know). Ostensibly we were all standing on the pedestrian bridge over the canal in an attempt to get Americans abroad to register to vote, but I didn't hear anyone chanting McCain's name. On the other hand, we did sing a great new song (to the tune of Frère Jaques):

Barack Obama,
Barack Obama
Yes we can
Yes we can
Change we can believe in
Change we can believe in
Obama
Obama

A few people took T-man's picture (he was cute), but I was not that clever so no picture in this post... sorry!
