While the post-inauguration days have been, well, ~interesting~ for lack of a better word, we’re glad that at least someone is enjoying the post-Obama presidency world – even if that person is the retired POTUS himself. (And seriously, the man deserves it.)
Obama has been spending his time away from Washington by relaxing under the sun in the British Virgin Islands alongside Michelle and billionaire Richard Branson – and from what we can tell, his daily activities have consisted of catching up on the watersports he missed out on during his eight years in office and goofing around with Branson. While according to Branson’s blog post, there was still some serious security involved, it looks like Obama’s life has already relaxed and lightened up considerably.
There’s even video evidence of a kitesurfing competition between the two:
Of course, the Internet also had plenty to say about it. Because, let’s be honest, his smile in all of these photos basically says it all – he is truly living his best life.

Is anyone else totally freaked out by seeing the former president in anything other than a suit and tie?Â
Meanwhile, this tweet is the ultimate truth:
Obama just out there kitesurfing, getting tan and we were left with a dude who walks about in a robe tweeting.

Even though he’s no longer our POTUS, we’re *sniff* happy he’s happy.
