Semaphore Kites

We took a Saturday up in Semaphore at the Kite Festival. IT WAS AWESOME!!! Check out these shots. Here was our approach to the festival. It was really nice to get in a bit of a walk in the sunshine.

 



Here is more of a close up shot of the kites. Some of them were on the same string with one at the top that did all the floating. The large ones really just blew in the wind while the square orange or blue or white one did all the work keeping the large ones up.





Cam & I wore our bucket hats to help with all that sun.

 The jetty or pier really was packed full of people. They had a kite fight to see who could stay up in the sky longest. It was fun to watch.

The coup d'état was the small train that you could take a ride on. Mam noticed that it was named "Bill"! Funny, Tat (who is still in Cleveland) was with us at the kite fest after all.
