Last Sunday (April 23rd) was the 21st annual Santa Barbara Kite Festival, held on the Great Meadow at Santa Barbara City College’s west campus, 11am-4pm, overlooking the beautiful harbor and breakwater.

It’s such a fun event. Hundreds of kites of all shapes, sizes and colors to be seen.

One of the most popular events held throughout the day is the “tail chase� for children as children in various age groups try to catch the tail of a kite as it dips and dives through the air. The winners were given a coupon to the local Coldstone Creamery. See, I knew I could make this post food-relevant!

Admission to the festival and parking on West Campus for the event is free. Hope to see you up there next year!
