As the misty morning cleared, the wind gradually increased, until there was enough to get some really beautiful kites in the sky.
This one is hand made by a flyer from Chatham - very pretty!
Andy & our friend Henry set themselves a target of getting 100 kites in the air on one string and here is the result!
It looked fantastic flying, and kept twisting about as if to show off its beauty - and there really were 100 kites on the string!
There were lots of other kites too:
and some support from All Good Fun and Wacky Faces, who kindly turned Andy into The Thing!
At 3pm the heavens opened, and everyone hurtled for cover. We gathered very soggily under a gazebo but there was no going on.
Since then the house has been full of drying kites and you can barely cross the living room! Still - we had a great day - really successful with some fantastic kites. Let's hope next year is even better!
