Yesterday I finally got a chance to fly my kites!!!!! YAY!!!! Thank you so much Duracell for flying them with me! It's a favourite hobby of mine, but one that rarely gets an opportunity to express itself, due to lack of time, space and good weather conditions. We flew two of my collection (I have 6 in total, but some are at home, as they are my Dad's as well), both twin lined, but very different in design. The first was my purple stunt kite, that I've had since I was 12 and I love it because I can do loads of tricks, but it has been crashed into the sea too many times, so its going rusty. I put a very cool, spinning tail on it, which looked great. Then we flew my rainbow kite (I know - WOW!!!!!), which I've never had much success with, but Duracell got it flying really well. Its one of the kites that fills up with air, and its rainbow coloured!!! I was impressed with how we managed to get it flying, it was cool. I didn't realise just how strong the wind was until at one point when the kite crashed, and I dropped the handles onto the beach, and the whole kite blew away! We had a manic chase after it, but we got it back. I'm looking forward to when I'm earning proper money and I can buy bigger, better kites (like the ones that drag you along - wow!). As you can probably tell, I do get very enthusiastic and excited when it comes to kites.
