Yoshi, Mario, Luigi and Sonic kites flying above Woodbine Beach, Toronto.
I airbrushed the cables out of this shot, but otherwise, this is how the kites appeared in the sky. Seeing them triggered flashbacks to a misspent youth of permanently being sat in front of computers and video game consoles 😁
The guy who was these belong to is often down the beach flying huge, colourful kites and has a whole bunch of different ones, including some giant squids.
Haha they look like they’re on a mission! Need to see the flying squids though 🙂
Hopefully I’ll have my camera with me the next time the squids are up!
Toronto used to have a kite festival. I don’t know if it’s still being held, but if it’s still around, you might enjoy stopping by 🙂
There does seem to be a day in September when lots of people fly kites down at Woodbine beach, but I don’t know if that’s the same thing?
My curiosity made me look it up 🙂 The one at Woodbine is called Windfest (no comment on that name). The one I was thinking of doesn’t seem to exist anymore, but there is another festival in Brampton, which isn’t too far of a drive (and also transit accessible).
Cool, thanks for the info.
Hope it helps 🙂
