You can tour “Obamaland” with Canterbury tours

January 20th, 2009 at 12:38pm Chuck Sweeny

I was talking with Dave Lemke of Canterbury Books the other day. He’s the guy who also does the bus tours. Lemke dreamed up the idea of a “Tour of Obamaland.”

That’s right, he’s taking reservations for a busload of folks to tour Hyde Park, Chicago, home of our 44th president.

“Locations included will be the Grant Park location, where Obama celebrated his election day victory.  Other locations to be visited (or at least viewed) include his bookstore, barber shop, favorite restaurant, Hyde Park home and many other significant locations of interest,” Lemke writes.

The tour is scheduled for Thursday, April 16th - Cost including lunch in the Hyde Park-University of Chicago area, will be $65 each.

Call Canterbury Tours at 815.398.1454 for reservations,” says Lemke.
