So far yes, though I read somewhere that she will have two events. She looks quite tired in the pictures.

she was ravishing yesterday, the whole look was of very good taste, and it was very suitable for the event
does rania meet michelle obama?

Nothing has been said about a meeting between the two but it would be really nice if they did meet.
 
I liked her clothing choice yesterday, it was very nice.
 
I thought this is official visit with gala dinner and all,I am a little disepointed:)
especially Rania didn't meet Michelle yet.
 
I agree with Dazzling , she looks really tired in these pictures.

It's nice that they took their kids with them.
 
Thanks all for the pictures.
Its great that the kids are with them. Lovely pictures of the family. I like Ranias casual style. Getty has more pictures.
 
Wow! Great pictures.

From the pictures, you can see that Queen Rania and her children are Georgetown. This is where the Infanta Cristina and her family will live when they relocate to DC in a couple of months.
