flying kite

20110131-01.jpg
When we were shopping, my 3 years old son asked me buy this!! it was ''Kite''.

There is a custom to fly a kite at the New Year in Japan, mostly the winter season that becomes windy.
The kite that had been sold in the supermarket for the New Year was cut in half price.

I told him, ''It would be not fun for you because it is difficult to fly and we need find the big place to fly it....''
He doesn't leave it from his hand though it persuaded, but that his appearance was lovey..,so I bought it for him!!!

We went to the Sanaru lake(Sanaruko) which is in the Hamamatsu city on Saturday.
The Hamana lake(Hamanako) is the most famous in the Hamatsu city, but it is the Sanaruko that is the nearest from the city area. and the park where the lake has been surrounded is place to relax for residents.

This is one we bought.↓↓↓
Width is about 70cm.

It flew up sky-high splendidly when self-styled kiteflying expert's husband began to fly a kite.
We applauded to him :D
It looks easy to fly the kite!! I thought it while looking up into the sky:)

The kite rises in a moment sky-high.
It was attached 35m string with this kite.
It doesn't take as much as one minute to rise by 35m.

He asked me ''try it'' then passed it to me!!

''wait minutes''!! can't hold it!!! because
It was pulled by terrible power, and it didn't be in quite easygoing play. made me panic!! kind of. my kids looked at me then they didn't want to fly the kite...

It had flown a kite with father at the New Year when I was kid, the kite always did not rise up though it ran and ran. because Hiroshima City hardly blows the strong wind for a clement region.(I grew up at Hiroshima city). I always thought, Kiteflying was not fun!! but now I recognize that Kiteflying is play in the region where such a wind is strong like in Hamamatsu city.

we tried to fly it......

but fanned by the strong wind, then the her kite had broken. ;(
It is a problem that the wind is too strong for the child.
eventually, they gave up to play with the kite and they were doing the stones and the branches collection beside the lake.

I became crazy about kiteflying in place of them.
I was feelings that receive the wind by me like that kite while pulling and loosening the string of the kite according to the wind that changes at once and are floating in the sky.
Kiteflying is play with the feeling of speed. I knew it this time!!!

I took this picture,↑↑↑ the kite was keeping by a hand and the other hand hold camera!! it works hard!!
It seems to connect sky and me really,so this is my favorite shot one!
I wish I could flying at the sky with spread the wings and receive the wind.
