That's what the US Ambassador to Spain just suggested.

p.s. And did you know John Kerry has run with the bulls in Pamplona? When he was in college, he apparently ran with the guy who is now the US ambassador to Italy.

George W. Bush's daughters walked the Camino (...or at least a portion) while he was President of the United States. It was right after college and following the time when Jenna got in trouble for her drinking. I saw a picture in the paper with the Secret Service surrounding them carrying backpacks and a caption stating it was taken on the Way of St. James (unclear where). Jenna had a wooden stick on her hands and looked like she was sweating profusely. I would had never thought in a million years they would, but they did. I can see both The President and the First Lady walking and having a blast :wink:

I wonder if the secret service has to hike in suits.

No, at least not for a First Daughter.The Secret Service is either the man, or disguised as sheep. I heard that there were four agents with her.

Easy to pick out. The secret service agents always wear a frown and sun glasses. Check the girls.

It would be a good experience for them....and right in line with Mrs. Obama's "Let's Move" initiative.
