女王90歲生日都幹啥 發郵票合影巡遊

Ten special stamps have been released to celebrate the Queen's birthday, including a stamp sheet featuring four generations of the Royal Family.

慶祝女王生日的十張紀念郵票已經發行，其中包括一張王室家族四代傳人的合影。

The picture of the Queen, Prince Charles, Prince William and Prince George was taken in Buckingham Palace last year.

這張包含女王、查爾斯王儲、威廉王子和喬治王子的四人合照拍攝於去年。

George, making his first appearance on a Royal Mail stamp, had to stand on four foam blocks bound together with tape so his head was at roughly the same height as the seated royals.

這是喬治第一次在皇家郵票上露臉，爲了能跟家族中其他三位坐着的長輩保持同樣的高度，喬治不得不站在四塊泡沫塑料板上。

This is a photograph which will be remembered long after this week's celebrations.

這是一張必定會被長久銘記的照片。

Think of it this way. When Prince George is celebrating his own 90th birthday, it will be the year 2103.

想想看，等喬治王子慶祝自己90歲壽辰的時候，得到2103年了。

They show the Queen: as a young Princess Elizabeth with her father then the Duke of York in around 1930; attending the State Opening of Parliament in 2012; with Princess Anne and Prince Charles in 1952; visiting New Zealand in 1977; with the Duke of Edinburgh in 1957; and riding in an open top carriage with Nelson Mandela in 1996.

照片展示的分別是：1930年左右女王還是伊麗莎白公主的時候跟時任約克公爵的父親的合影；2012年出席議會開幕儀式；1952年與安妮公主和查爾斯王子的合影；1977年訪問新西蘭；1957年與愛丁堡公爵合影，以及1996年與曼德拉同乘馬車。

On her actual birthday on Thursday, the Queen and Prince Philip will undertake a walkabout in Windsor and unveil a plaque marking The Queen's Walkway, a 6.3km self-guided walking trail connecting 63 points of significance in Windsor.

到了女王生日的正日子，4月21日，女王和菲利普親王會在溫莎城堡內進行巡遊，同時爲“女王步道”揭幕，這是一條長6.3公里的步行小路，連接了溫莎城堡內的63個重要地點。

It was designed to recognize the moment the monarch broke the record on 9 September 2015 held by her great-great-grandmother Queen Victoria by being on the throne for 63 years and seven months.

這個步道是爲了紀念伊麗莎白女王在2015年9月9日打破了其曾曾祖母維多利亞女王63年零7個月的在位記錄。

In the evening, the Queen with Prince Philip, the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall, will light the principal beacon setting in train a series of more than 900 beacons across the UK and around the world to mark the milestone birthday.

到了晚上，女王會和菲利普親王、威爾士王子以及康沃爾公爵夫人一起點亮歡慶活動的主體彩燈。900多個歡慶彩燈將遍佈整個英國和世界各地。

On Friday, US President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama will be joining the Queen for lunch at Windsor Castle.

週五（4月22日），美國總統奧巴馬和夫人米歇爾將到訪溫莎城堡，與女王共進午餐。

Britain's longest-serving monarch celebrates two birthdays each year, her actual birthday on 21 April and her official birthday on a Saturday in June.

英國在位時間最長的王室首領（伊麗莎白女王）每年要慶祝兩個生日，一個是她實際的生日4月21日，另一個是她的官方生日，在6月的一個週六。

Official celebrations to mark sovereigns' birthdays have often been held on another day, particularly when the actual birthday has not been in the summer.

官方慶祝王室領袖的生日一般都不跟實際的生日在同一天，尤其如果生日不在夏天的話。
