  • Four Foreign Kite festivals 2014

    - 9 years ago
    FOUR FOREIGN KITE FESTIVALS 2014 The first of my foreign festivals was at Notre Dame de Monts on the Atlantic coast of France and was the first I’ve been invited to as a guest. It was 500 miles from the Zeebrugge where the ferry from Hull goes to. I took three days to travel there and arrived on the Thursday. Flyers had been invited from the 1st to the 11th July with the festival proper being over the weekend. To my delight I found a number of friends there. Derek Kuhn was there so I had a…

  • Frejus festival of the air 2013

    - 29 Dec 2013
    Frejus Kite festival October 2013 After I had booked into KAPiFrance 125, I had a look at the kite calendars and found that Frejus Kite Festival was the following weekend.
