Kites

Our friend Angie had her 8th birthday party at the Kite Museum.. we hadn't been there in at least two years.  It's still lovely. The kids started off with a movie about the history of kites.. and it looks like Indonesia has an even longer history than China flying kites!  We saw that, at the annual kite festival in Bali, some kites were so big they had to be carried on the back of a truck and needed 30 people to fly them!
 

We then took a tour of the museum...



And then all of the kids made their own.

And then flew them!

It was a nice, relaxing afternoon.  One of the best parts?  Angie's dad is the head chef at one of the best French restaurants in town.. and so the pastry chef made something super special keeping with the kite theme!
