A "Personal Visit" To New York City

A late addition to the White House schedule: it seems that the President and the First Lady will make a "personal trip" to New York City tomorrow. No more details or guidance from the White House have been forthcoming. So-called "off-the-record" trips inside the Beltway are common, but the President doesn't usually make a "personal" trip on such short notice. Perhaps he is attending to a sick friend....someone's funeral....maybe he's attending a Broadway show?

so how exactly does this work? I assume a pool reporter still tags along? It's hard to imagine the POTUS just taking off to NYC on a "personal trip".

Was the First Lady also together? How was the visit?
