What do you do when you have a kite festival, Virginia Beach, with no wind? Well, one choice is these really cool ultra light kites made of graphite rod and super light nylon fabric. These things fly in nearly still air. Pretty cool.

Like ballerinas or synchronized swimmers three kites flew in beautiful choreographies patterns over head. I have no idea how they managed not to just end up in a knotted mess. That was the work of three members of the TWM.

A huge red squid barely rose up off the sand. It was one of a number of big kites that they had on the beach but couldn’t show off without more wind. They would have been impressive.
