Mitt Romney visits Disneyland
Mitt Romney has responded to the crushing disappointment of his loss in the US presidential election by visiting the self-styled "happiest place on earth".
Two weeks after his comprehensive defeat by President Barack Obama, Mr Romney was spotted at Disneyland in California late on Tuesday, riding rollercoasters with some of his grandchildren.
The former Massachusetts governor, who was accompanied by his wife, Ann, and two of their five sons, appeared tired after the conclusion of his six-year quest for the White House.
Photographs posted online by fellow visitors to the theme park suggested that the 65-year-old had relaxed the grooming regime that kept his hair perfectly slicked back through his campaign.
His reception was mixed. One onlooker, Alecia Tolosa, took to Twitter to report "people clapping when they see him". However another, Griffin Gerber, asked: "Is it too inappropriate to laugh in his face?"
