Cerf-volant! / Kite!

Niché entre Santa Cruz et San Francisco, la plage de Waddel Creek est un repaire idéal pour les amateurs de kite surfing (surfing à cerf-volant). La présence de fort vents ainsi que la grande étendue de la plage en font un site favori pour les mordus de ce sport.

Hier après-midi, nous recherchions un site pour faire voler le nouveau cerf-volant de ma fille Savannah. Waddel Creek est la solution! Le ciel regorgeait de cerf-volants à multiples couleurs. Les touristes qui passaient par hazard ont pu prendre de magnifiques photographies.

Si vous n’y étiez pas, je vous laisse le loisir de regarder le court vidéo que j’ai pris hier.

Nestled between Santa Cruz and San Francisco, Waddel Creek beach is the ideal spot for kite surfing fans. The ongoing strong wind as well as the vast flat beach is a true delight for aficionados of this popular sport.

Yesterday afternoon, we were looking for the ideal spot to fly my daughter Savannah’s kite. Waddel Creek was the place to be! The sky was filled with dozens of colorful kites. Tourists who were driving by were at the right place to take superb photographies.

If you were there, I am inviting you to see the short video I made of kite surfing yesterday.

The video is more about enjoying the scenery than listening. The place is super windy!
