Festivals   © Trevor Hughes 2012 Made with MAGIX SNOWYKITE The next big festival will probably be Dieppe in France http://www.dieppe-cerf-volant.org/dccv/festival/ukfestival.html There is also a page with a program http://www.dieppe-cerf-volant.org/dccv/festival/GB%20Flyer%20verso%202012.jpg Click thumbnail to enlarge Had a good time in Dieppe my new kite was hand delivered from Australia (pic 1) scroll down to pics. We saw the oldest house (pic 2) there were a lot of maple leaf kites (pics 5,7,10 &12) to celebrate the anniversary of the Canadian raid operation Jubilee in ww2. The memorial to this is in (pic 6) complete with poppy kites. Picture 13 is a statue performance artist who performed most days during the week. Picture 16 was the restaurant we ate at one night with the most delicious galettes and crepes, the translation is “sea gull on a bicycle” which is obvious from the drawing. The only down side to the whole trip was on the last Saturday when during the creative kite contest running to launch my kite the ground came up and winded me and bruised some of my ribs on the left side which has left me in agony, the docs say it will take about 6 to 8 weeks to heal.
