In reply to the discussion: First Lady Michelle Obama at a reception at Buckingham Palace for Heads of State and Government-pics [View all]freshwest
(53,661 posts)10. Yeah, I don't think she'd care for the arrogant 'It's our turn now' types like Ann...
I was surprised at the picture of her standing with Susman. The Queen looks short next to Michelle.
She also looks rather frail. But then she takes her position very seriously as a religious vow. Not many would submit to having that crown on your head as a fixture of British symbolism.
I would not want to be her or her family living in a fishbowl. Thanks, Kadie, for more great pics.
