"About 20 U.S. volunteers ..."

My WorldTeach group is featured on the U.S. Embassy´s website from our visit last week. The ambassador is the guy in the middle in a suit. I´m in a white shirt right next to him. We all laughed when we saw the "about 20 U.S. volunteers" part of the article because it makes the visit sound so casual. Any casual attitude on the part of the embassy was belied by the security checks, passport examinations, checklist, and prepared name tags. It was NOT as though we could´ve brought along an extra friend in a more-the-merrier, sure-why-not kind of way.
