It took nearly their entire five-day goodwill trip through Poland and Germany, but the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge finally found the cure for agrumpy Prince George on Friday.
Awesome helicopters!
George, who turns 4 on Saturday, beamed during the family's tour of the H145 and H135 helicopters at an Airbus factory in Hamburg, Germany, on the final day of the royal family's goodwill trip.
Unfortunately, just as George came out of his funk on Friday, 2-year-old Princess Charlotte had a tough day as she took a tumble on the tarmac and threw a tantrum that Duchess Kate had to defuse.
Making a 3-year-old boy crack a big smile is a lot easier when he's able to climb aboard a cool chopper just like the one his dad, Prince William, used to fly as a member of the East Anglian Air Ambulance crew.
It was a far cry from Wednesday, when a grumpy George got off the plane in Germany and was not in the mood to be shaking hands with various dignitaries.
Meanwhile, Charlotte stole the show on Wednesday by giving out official royal handshakes as she clutched a tiny bouquet of flowers.
Friday wrapped up the royal family's trip, which was part of a diplomatic gesture by the United Kingdom as the nation extricates itself from the European Union as a result from last year’s Brexit vote.
The trip marked the third royal tour for Prince George and the second for Princess Charlotte, who made her worldwide debut in Canada last September.
