While Barack and Michelle Obama were at the balls, what were Melia and Sasha doing in the halls?

I would suspect that they were exhausted from the days events and home in the White House asleep. Jan 21 09, 1:26 PM

I heard that they were at "a movie night." I would guess that they watched the movies in the White House movie theater. Jan 21 09, 6:54 PM

In their wildest dreams, Malia and Sasha Obama never could have imagined what was in store for them on their first night in the White House. While their parents danced the night away at 10 different inaugural balls across Washington , the Obama girls had some fun of their own, gallivanting around 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue with a few of their closest friends. Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7, had requested two of their favorite movies -- Disney's "High School Musical 3" and "Bolt" -- for their first night as presidential daughters. In keeping with tradition, the White House staff had planned even more for the first daughters. The staff had spent the day organizing a late-night scavenger hunt for the girls that would teach them in the ins and outs of their new digs. Chelsea Clinton, who was 12 years old when her father, President Bill Clinton, was sworn into office, also participated in a scavenger hunt arranged by White House ushers on her first night. But the best-secret of all may have been what the Obama girls found at the end of the last clue in the scavenger hunt. Real-life Disney stars -- teen sensations the Jonas Brothers -- had stopped by the house to visit two of their biggest and most presidential fans. http://www.abcnews.go.com/GMA/Inauguration/story?id=6698562&page=1 Jan 21 09, 7:56 PM

Yes, ZBeckabee got it! They were treated to a scavenger hunt in the White House. This was reported to Charlie Gibson on ABC, by an unknown associate. Later to be revealed as Deep Pockets, a Disney spokesman. Jan 21 09, 10:11 PM
