Week 9 of 52 Weeks: Kites, Friends and Blue Sky

There is nothing that will lift the spirits of the great British public quicker after a long, cold, wet and interminably grey winter than some blue sky and a little sun.

Today, Orla and I met up with family friends, Simon, Nicky and Ella for an afternoon in the village park, and Simon brought Ella’s kite. Watching the girls fly the kite, run round the park, their faces glowing with healthy exercise and laughter cheered me up more than I can express.

    I don’t see many kids playing with kites these days, but I remember when we would make a kite to fly as kids 🙂

      I think we may have had a kite as kids, but I don’t believe it ever got flown. My parents were not big on exercise and getting out. I think I did more of that with friends parents. Orla has one, we are taking it out this weekend, at the same time she is learning to roller skate. 🙂

      I like the idea of making our own actually.
