El Papalote

Date: 9/23/09
Place: Cosmo Park, Columbia, MO
Kites: Echo on 12'
Wind: 0 - 0.5 mph !!, SW
Weather: Cloudy, 68º (humid)

My Echo kite was extra fun to fly today (after work, before dinner). I did lots of all its usual tricks, and even a couple of nice running-backwards fades.

I talked to a Latino family that were watching the football (American football, not soccer) practice at the fields. I asked them what the Spanish word for kite is -- it is El Papalote. I like the sound of that word!
