We just really want to be the Obamas on holiday in Bali

Barack Obama is a man who really knows how to make the most of his freedom. He’s continuing his post-Presidential trip to Indonesia with a little family downtime in Bali - with plenty of adventure for his teenage daughters thrown in for good measure.
Obama, wife Michelle and their daughters, Sasha and Malia, were invited to Indonesia by President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo, who also asked the family to visit the presidential Bogor Palace in West Java during their trip, according to ABC News.
The family took the opportunity to go whitewater rafting in Bali, while Sasha and Malia cracked a smile for the camera. Best. Family. Ever.
Barack himself lived in Indonesia for several years as a child. He moved there at the age of six, when his mother, Ann Dunham, remarried to an Indonesian man. Four years later, he returned to his native Hawaii when he was 10 to live with his grandparents.

While the family make the most of their time away, Obama’s successor, President Donald Trump, has stepped up his criticism of Obama's handling of alleged Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential campaign, accusing his predecessor of collusion and demanding an apology from investigators.

Trump has increasingly lashed out over the ongoing investigations into Russia's role in the election and possible collusion by his campaign.
