68th Annual Austin Zilker Park Kite Festival

The weather in South Texas over the past 59 days has been dry. Usually,
if it is going to be a wet spring it begins in early February. This
year the Austin Kite Festival stands to be a dry one. In the past this
event has had great weather but I think this year the weather will be
wonderful.

This event usually attracts the most spectators per hour than any
festival in this region. There are usually anywere between 10,000 to
20,000 spectators during this 4 hour kite festival and as many kites.
The kiters usually arrive early to stake out a spot near the
competition field.

Throughout the day kites are everywhere. The trees near the river begin
to fill with the remains of lost cut out of the sky kites. By the end
of the day the trees are filled with all different colors of kites left
behind.
