Kiting part two turned out to be surprisingly more challenging than the first time. For some reason, the kites wouldnt take off. But we tried and tried and finally our little dream was soaring in the sky.
Now here is the funny part...we cut three kites that came to cut us without actually trying to do anything of the sort. We just used the smarter thread in self defence ;)
Then ofcourse, we cut two of our own kites with bad flying.
Salman just wouldnt take off and actually tore.
I prefer to think he just did not want to leave my side.
We did not beg but we borrowed and we stole!!!
Oh yeah...when our kites first refused to take off, a kind expert- kiter neighbour told us to try one of his. So we borrowed.
Then we even picked up a kite that had the misfortune to be cut and land on our terrace. What a delicious thrill THAT was...flying somebody else's kite....
MAN it felt so good to be bad!!! :)
As we finished kiting and were on our way down, we saw another family making their way to the terrace.
'See how well equipped THEY are' said Maddy. So i looked and lo and behold...the wife was carrying about half a dozen kites and the husband was carrying about half a dozen beer bottles!!
Now we know how to go kiting the next time.
Then came zooing.
As a birthday treat, we took junjun to the zoo
"The tigers are nice acha but where is the pink panther's cage?"
It was a lovely day indeed :)

sounds exciting indeed! loved the pink panther...awww...can't blame the guy!
Is Hyderabad as a city into kite flying?? Or is it common to all places? How come I missed it when I was in Bangalore??
About the pink panther, I am giggling away. I was trying to jot down a few of Saanya's rib-tickling stuff, but nothing will match that :D
LOL, Pink Panther? That was funny!!! As was the vision I had of the wife bearing the kites after her lordly beer spouse!!1
:) :)
Aah.. Now Beer, I can wax eloquent about, except while I'm too busy drinking it.
The Pink Panther's cage huh? How did you answer the little smile trader?
Hey, we have a little something for you at our page... [:)]
Do drop by and pick it up...
ganga : yup...actually he got hugged quite a bit after that question :)
Roopa : I think it is ... coz every terrace in the vicinity had a minimum of 6 people flying kites and there are all sorts of corporate kite flying events held in the city as well. I dont know about b'lore but apparently chennai was also quite into it till people started getting hurt by the manja thread and the police had quite a lot of restrictions after that.
Miao : We are honoured. Really. Thank you very very much :) :) :)
Zak : unfortunately we didnt answer him...too busy laughing and i guess he got distracted by some other animal. But if the question does come back , we have decided to tell him the pink panther is busy acting in his serial. yup. jun will totally buy that ;)
...and that was supposed to read Miaow...sorry!
