Was glued to BBC World and the happy (and admittedly hungover) tears kept falling, especially during the acceptance speech. It’s a baking hot afternoon now on this little speck of an island in the Indian Ocean. Afternoon here…and morning in America.

A lovely looking woman in the Chicago crowd, being interviewed on Sky, said that Obama’s speech made “the hairs stand up on my back”.
She has hair on her back?!?!?!?! (possibly so overwhelmed that she forgot to add ‘neck’)
Ko Phi Phi — wow. I mean, just — wow!

In years to come that speech will be taught in schools right alongside the Gettysburg Address.
