Sky Friday Kites



Every now and then on a windy weekend, a kite fanatic named John brings his wild creations to Marina Beach. These are life-sized, which is only a little disconcerting to the freeway traffic passing by.

What a fun photo! I would love to be in the freeway traffic and see this! And you got a beautiful blue sky to go with it....

Beautiful sky, and I bet the wind would help to have good fun with kites.

Super fun way to spend an afternoon! Love seeing these. I'd not seen "human" kites before!

Reminds me of Nantucket in the summer. Lots of kites of all different types. Of course, that was a long time ago:pre-video games.
