Kite Flying !

In my earlier post I wrote about Green Monday celebrations in Cyprus. Following the Cypriot tradition, I and my family had great fun flying kites on this day.




Kurium beach was our obvious choice since it's usually windy there. Not surprisingly, it was very crowded with families enjoying their picnic plus kite flying :-)



With the wind blowing towards the sea, few had a tough time with their kites taking a dip in the water :(


Aditi keenly observing her dad in action :)


Father - daughter duo trying to get the kite airborne. Aditi seemed all excited.


And finally when the kite soared up into the sky, Aditi was veeeeery happy ! She was however wondering how the kite turned into a bird ;-)


It felt like we were back into childhood days ! Like they say -
"If you carry your childhood with you, you never grow older" ;-)
So next time you get a chance, don't miss it !
