sunny, cloudy, rainy, cold, hot

The weather changes so fast here. The web forecast can say that its going to be rainy and cloudy all week but we have mixed sunny, cloudy, drizzly, rainy, windy, calm, cold, hot all in one day. I went down to the beach where there was a better breeze in the afternoon to test the Night Kite. After much fussing about, the Night Kite wouldn't achieve any lift youch... It was looking good, but flying bad. My energy dropped and as I walked back my brain went into overdrive trying to figure out what was wrong. As soon as I got back , I took it completely apart. I thought about the visit earlier in the day of Te Huirangi Waikerepuru, the Maori elder. He talked about creating and singing a song to accompany any activity and that the words helped give energy to that activity.

Maybe I need a song...

I spent the Monday evening creating a new kite , thinking and working on my sound player. The new kite is based on a design similar to the Eddy kite which was created early in the 20th century by William Eddy. After an hour of adjustments it started to fly properly. My spirits started to lift as it flew. yaayyy....
