Romancing the Wind

Subject: Romancing the wind ( with 3 kites...)

> If you're from Vancouver you'll recognize the location. If you're not but have always wanted to visit and maybe see a show like this, the location is just a few blocks from my place, out on Kits Point in Kitsilano, in Vanier Park that reaches out into the ocean where False Creek opens into English Bay and that experiences pretty steady winds when the water is cooler than the land. There are always kites being flown there but these flown by this expert are simply incredible. (I do think the guy should be wearing a shirt and should have for many years so he doesn't get carcinoma but that's another thing entirely.) Have a look and be amazed. And for a change the music actually works with the visuals. Tony ==================================
Ray Bethell, a resident of Vancouver, B C, is one of the most famous kite-flyers in the world.

He controls three kites in a ballet set to "The Flower Duet".....

It is neat.....

That was pretty amazing. The music and movement together was outstanding.

I guess he has been flying kites for years, but the control was just so good.
