Queen Elizabeth II altered her schedule so she could congratulate balloonists Brian Jones and Bertrand Piccard on their historic round-the-world flight. Her Majesty and Prince Philip chatted with Jones, a 53-year-old Briton, and his Swiss copilot Thursday at the Bristol, England, balloon factory that made the record-breaking Breitling Orbiter 3. Piccard, 41, said the Queen was "very interested in how the balloon was fueled and how we managed in the living conditions."
