How I did it: Some friends randomly invited me to fly kites with them a few weeks back, so I packed up a few kites and went off to the park to fly them. It only took me 1 day to fly the kites, but much longer than that to actually get around to doing so. Read how I did it…

How I did it: I was with someone I loved the first time. It was a tye dye kite we bought at the local shop by the beach.

How I did it: "Let's Go Fly a Kite"I had taken two graduate courses in information studies in London over the summer. One of our activities was to go to Primrose Hill in Regent's Park and fly a kite like Mary Poppins.

My girlfriend’s birthday is in 13 days, and I’m going to buy her a kite. This is something she’s wanted for a while, and something she can’t believe I’ve never done. We’re going to go downtown and fly it off Citadel Hill.

I brought it up north this weekend and we had a ton of wind. I only fell out of one dead tree trying to recover it after a weird gust got it tangled (and the dead tree was laying on the ground, so it wasn’t too high of a fall). I realized too that I can probably fly it with a slight breeze…I don’t need gusting winds, so I am going to make a kite bag (with a shoulder strap) so I can bring it places more often, just in case I have an opportunity to use it.
I’m glad I got a nice kite, too….it was easy to fly and stood up to the high winds. I hope to take it out on a regular basis!
Pure joy

There’s something so simple about flying kites that attracts me to it.
Not sure if any of my friends are up for it though. Also I’m not sure if I want to buy a kite just for this… I’m trying to clear clutter in my house and reduce the number of my possessions… Any comments?

the kite video again to get inspired by the song. Maybe if I sing to my kite to encourage it, it will get up in the air faster.

approximately the 4th time I’ve tried to fly my kite. It was windy, I swear! But the wind was too gusty and unreliable, it kept changing directions slightly. Too many buildings and hills around at the park I guess.
Next time I’m going to the beach in a gale force wind – THAT KITE IS GOING UP!!!!!
nzy is happy! ;>

Tuesday was windy. Very windy. A perfect day for this. We walked over to the park and all took turns. Delicious.
