Washington, June 3 (ANI): President Obama spent his first night at his private home in Chicago in over a year.
In the morning, he was seen taking a four-block stroll through his Hyde Park neighborhood.
The president, dressed in tan slacks and a white, open-collared shirt with sleeves rolled up, walked down South Woodlawn Avenue alongside senior adviser Valerie Jarrett, both clearly enjoying the sunny and seasonable weather, according to pool reporters on scene.
A Secret Service agent followed closely behind, ABC News reported.
"Nice day, huh?" Obama called out to members of the press who were positioned to observe the stroll.
"Did you guys spend some money in Chicago!? Did you stay up too late?" he asked.
When one reporter asked the president whether he had cooked breakfast for himself at home this morning, something he had hinted he would do during remarks Friday night, he replied smiling "No, I woke up too late".
Obama and Jarrett ended at the home of Chicago businessman Martin Nesbitt, a close personal friend of the Obamas.
They spent about an hour inside before departing for O'Hare International Airport to return to Washington.
Obama was in Chicago Friday to attend fundraising events for his re-election campaign. (ANI)
