Kite Flying @ Barrage

First of all! ahh.. sorry for the late update. This event was back dated on 20th June but it was not until today when I had a chance to rest at home due to stomach upset that I can have the time to blog about this memorable event.

It was my first time flying a kite. Yes, my first time at the age of 25 yrs old! haha. It was not a very sucessful first attempt at first. Our Sparrow suffered from broken wing and it was really after a hard repair that we could get it to fly up to the sky for a short while before it is gone forever buried under the famous river of Singapore.

#2: Our Proud Sparrow 2


If you can see from the above 2 picture.. the rear wing was broken. It then became a burden for the kite to fly up and to maintain stability up in the sky. Honestly, while I was repairing it, I seriously doubt that it would be able to fly up among with the rest. But this kite really proved itself well. Not only, it was able to fly up with the rest despite having physical disability, but also able to withstand the pressure from its surrounding and 'bullies' up in the sky.

Actually not only our sparrow faces problem. The goldfish kite named "playful little koi" faced lots of obstacles too. But 团结就是力量。With a combination of resources and skill.. The Kite is up the sky too!
