Reply #7 - Apr 14^th, 2009 at 4:01am Wow! Those kites fly so high! Mine never did reach that high, oh no. Me and dad tried every trick in the book, but we never succeeded. It was fun to try, though.

When I was young and living in Puerto Rico, I built my own with my brother's help, then we'd go to the beach, especially on a windy day, and he'd start it off for me by running at a specific pace - however he did it, it was always picked up by the wind, then I would fly it for a couple of hours. I even used to lie on the beach while still holding the kite and watch it for hours. It was so cool.

Cook pic, thanks Mel.

When you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.
