[UPDATE] And, in what was possibly the greatest moment of the day, President Obama turns on his way back into the Capitol to see the huge crowd gathered on the mall, saying “I’m not gonna see this again”:
If you pay attention, you’ll see Malia urge White House photographer, Pete Souza, to hurry up and get a picture. Smart kid.
It was a great day. What was your favorite part?
