As his professional and parental duties approach a new phase, President Obama is taking a family vacation this weekend to the caverns here and to Yosemite National Park, echoing a similar trip he took seven years ago when his daughters were smaller and his hair not nearly so gray.

At the caverns, which were closed for the Obamas’ visit, the family took an elevator down 754 feet. They toured the Big Room, the fifth-largest natural limestone chamber in the world, which maintains a year-round temperature of 56 degrees.

In August 2009, the Obamas took their daughters to Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Canyon. Pictures from the trip show two little girls; now, Malia is about as tall as her father, and Sasha is not far behind.

Mr. Obama was criticized then for taking a vacation during the worst economic slowdown since the Great Depression. But administration officials said at the time that part of the reason for the trip was to draw attention and lure tourists to the national park system.The first family headed out a week after the Obamas’ elder daughter, Malia, 17, graduated from high school. Mr. Obama has said many times that Malia’s looming departure — she has been accepted by Harvard but will take a gap year first — is causing him great emotional turmoil, and during the graduation ceremony on June 10 he wept behind dark sunglasses.
