Sunday 10th July Fly-in - The Lade

[ekim]

Fly-in on Sunday 10th July near the Lade car park at Lydd-on-Sea.
We will be somewhere near the junction of Coast Drive and Williamson Road. For What3Words users ///unsecured.fragments.cake should get you pretty close. We tend not to use the carpark due to the parking charges, so we park in the road on the coast side where the yellow lines end.

We may well be joined by Michelle, whose brother sadly died the day we last flew here. She would like to join us to fly her brother's kite in his memory.

All things being equal, and Easyjet willing, I will not be available for this fly-in.

Due to the Heat and no shade at the Lade, I decided to stay at home today.

Barbara & I had a lovely afternoon at The Lade. Despite weather app forecasting zero wind there was a lovely light but fairly steady breeze blowing diagonally across the beach towards Hythe (Away from the sun!). It meant that we could fly from the car and with the breeze it really wasn't as hot and stifling as I had expected. Managed to fly a wide variety of stick kites whilst watching the oystercatchers that couldn't make their minds up whether to sitck on the beach (sea was miles out) or fly to the lakes. If I had a pound for every time they flew over...........

A lovely relaxing afternoon in the sun
