As Queen Elizabeth II took in the Trooping the Color parade from the balcony of Buckingham Palace, her interactions with great-grandson Prince Louis quickly stole hearts.

The queen, 96, and Louis, 4, watched military planes fly above the palace as the festivities for the queen's Platinum Jubilee unfolded in the center of London.

Louis appeared to ask his great-grandmother questions about the planes overhead, while the queen was seen pointing things out to her great-grandson.
