From your link.. this will be some good peaceful memories to take back to D.C. with them!
"The Obamas had the sheltered Hanauma Bay to themselves — the area is routinely closed to the public on Tuesdays — and stayed far out of the range of cameras during their two-hour visit."

President Obama went golfing on Wednesday during his vacation in Hawaii. The President golfed at the Mid Pacific Country Club in Kailua. (Jan. 2)
The video captures a snippet of President Obama's New Year's Day golf round at the Mid Pacific Country Club in Kailua, Hawaii.
