I finally bought a kite! I have always wanted to get a simple and nice kite so that I can fly it at the Marina Barrage. I still remembered we saw some kites at Changi Village some time ago. Even though I kept saying I wanted to buy one but somehow I just didn't get it then. The chance came when we went expo and saw someone selling kites at the bazaar sale. I wanted a simple kite, so I choose a pink ghost kite. I bought the strings and LED as well. The kite cost $20 but after getting the strings and LED, it's around $50! As I didn't bring enough cash, part of it was sponsored by dearer than dearest. ^^
On the same day we bought the kite, we decided to go and test it out. We went to an open field that is near his house and we began trying. The wind wasn't strong and sometimes we can get the kite up, sometimes we couldn't. It's alright. However, one problem which I encountered was that the string was entangled whenever it was in my hands. I felt quite bad for having to cut the strings away and also having him untying the knots for me each and everytime.
Last week, we went town and so we decided to go Marina Barrage to fly our kite! It was around 930pm and wow, there were so many beautiful and colorful kites up in the sky! I kinda regret buying a simple ghost kite! We took out our kite and clipped the LEDs on. Due to the strong wind, our kite was up in the sky in no time. It was fun!
It was a great night. However, it'll be good too, if we could sit down, picnic, have a drink, chit-chat while looking at our kite..... Well, hope there's a next time and we shall do that!
