Hanging Around!

Hi V ... While approaching St Kilda Pier on Sunday we saw a kite surfer fly high into the air.  Thankfully he had calculated the wind strength correctly and he came down for a soft landing close to shore.  With the "oohs" and "aahhs" from spectators encouraging them a series of kite surfers were skimming the waves close to the pier, letting the high winds fill their sails launching them higher than I've ever seen a kite surfer fly.  Amazed J.
