Obama: 'Her majesty is delightful' »
Funny. You can totally imagine Barack and Michelle sitting around seriously wracking their brains trying to come up with meaningful and unique gifts for the queen. While Liz and Phil were just, like, “Aw, fuck it, give ‘em a coupla signed 8x10s. Whatever.”
During their private meeting, President Obama and first lady gave the queen a personalized iPod with video footage of her 2007 visit to Washington and Virginia. She was also given a rare songbook signed by composer Richard Rodgers. In return the queen and her husband, Prince Philip, gave the Obamas signed portrait of themselves.
