Zilker Park Kite Festival

We finally got to go to the Zilker Park Kite Festival yesterday. Every single year, I always tell Steven that we need to go, but for some reason or other, we've never been able to make it until this year. It was the perfect day to fly a kite. It was extrememly windy and it was neither too cold or too hot. We had a lot of fun just being out and being part of the mass kite flying chaos. We got to watch some cool demostrations like a kite flying team performing in sequence with music. Then we saw a guy who flew 10 kites at once. After snacking on some bratwurst with kraut and funnel cake, we took a stab at flying our new dragon kite from Costco. Costco really did time their kite sale because half the people there had Costco kites! Our dragon kite was really hard to fly (I nicknamed it Eeyore becuase it didn't seem to want to move), but once it was up, it flew pretty well. The last pic is only a glimpse of all of the kites being flown at one time. It was a lot of fun, but you had to watch out in case a kite landed on your head!
