Fun times flying

Last Friday afternoon we decided to take advantage of the good weather and take the kites and buggy out and head to the beach. Unfortunately the buggy had a flat that we couldn't fix, but it all worked out to be a fun day anyway! We finally got to test out the kite Richard got from me, Amanda and my mom for his birthday. It's so big that even though there wasn't much wind, it caught some and we could fly and enjoy a beautiful sunny day at the beach. It was fun and we got some pictures to prove it. Enjoy!

It was a beautiful day, but the wind wasn't very strong. We got out our biggest kite to catch as much wind as possible. You can see in this picture that the width of the kite is almost as big as Richard is tall. Normally I would be afraid to hang behind this one because it would dominate me! It flew great and was nice and caught what little wind there was.

Even though the wind was light, the kite was still able to drag us a little through the sand. Here are some of our drag marks.

Fun refreshing day out :)
