The Obamas faced a deluge of pouring rain after landing in Cuba for an historic visit to the communist country on Sunday evening.

President Barack Obama, his wife Michelle, children Sasha and Malia and the First Lady's mother, Marian Robinson, touched down in Havana in the first presidential visit to Cuba in nine decades. 

Air Force One touched down in Havana - in the midst of a torrential downpour - just before 4:30pm ET on Sunday for the visit the White House says will 'deepen' America's relationship with the communist government following more than half a century of tension.

President Obama and his family were whisked off the runway to Old Havana for a tour, but the first family - particularly Sasha Obama - looked less than pleased with the weather as they perched underneath umbrellas.
