Obama was kicking off a day of royal events that included a bedtime greeting for the young Prince George, third in line to the throne. The President's first stop Friday: Windsor Castle, outside London, for a birthday lunch with the Queen. Not letting the rotor wash of Obama's Marine One helicopter deter her from offering a warm welcome, the new nonagenarian strode out onto the grass alongside husband Prince Philip to offer a handshake. Under gray skies, the monarch wore a floral silk scarf to protect her from the wind as she greeted Obama and the first lady with a smile.
