The President of the United States has his very own airplane and can travel anywhere in the entire world he wants on a whim to kick back and relax.

And for President's Day Weekend -- which is a weekend named after him, he's choosing West Palm Beach.

It's about to get sexy all up in hurrrrrr....

West Palm Beach is, of course, beautiful, has great dining, the beach, and the weather is fantastic.

Also Barry can drive Michelle around the neighborhoods to look at all the giant mansions.

The President's brief getaway comes just says after his State of the Union address.

Obama will arrive in West Palm Beach on Friday night around 8 p.m. and will be here until Monday, when he has to get back to work in cold-ass D.C.

There are no public events planned, and the president's press office isn't releasing any deets on his schedule or what exactly he'll be doing while chilling in our neck of the woods.
