PHOTOS:Obama Tours Robben Island


President Obama toured Robben Island, the jail Nelson Mandela was kept in for 18 years. He said he and his family are ''deeply humbled'' to visit the prison once inhabited by Mandela. He signed the visitors book, spent some time in the cell once inhabited by Mandela and visited the quarry where prisoners were required to labour. Robben Island which was once a prison house were resistance leaders were once kept is now a museum. More pictures after the cut.
