Vice-President Biden Visits Warsaw

Vice-President Joe Biden was in Warsaw on Wednesday to meet with the Polish government. Before he headed over to his meetings, the embassy families were invited to the Sheraton for a meet-and-greet. The new ambassador, Lee Feinstein, made some introductory remarks and then the VP spoke casually for about 15 minutes. He was warm and personable and interesting to listen to.
After speaking, the VP walked the rope divider taking time to shake hands and speak with everyone in the group. He took time to talk personally with all of us. The video below begins with the two people to our right and then you can see him talk with Kyle, Katy, Michael, and then Tim. When he finds out that I'm the mom, he grabs my camera, gives it to one of his agents, and then grabs me for a hug!
