Festival of the Wind

We arrived at Emu Park yesterday, just in time for the Festival of the Wind. Emu Park is approximately 40klms from Rocky and on the coast. As we drove into town there were cars everywhere(the total opposite to Rocky on a Sunday morning), it was so busy we were getting concerned that we had miscalculated the ending of the school holidays. The caravan Park soon put us at ease and we unpacked to the sound of waves crashing on the shore 50 meters away. Down on the beach was this amazing sight of kites everywhere, kite dog fights, BIG kites, fish kites, emu kites you name it and it was there. In the park was the carnival with all the rides, fast foods and community organisations raising money. The day finished off with a great fire works display at 6.30 which we got to enjoy from Miss G back in the park. Kerry and Pete (our new best friends for today) called over and a weeeeeee drink was had. All up a great welcome to this small coastal town. D'luded will be going for a swim today so stay tuned for the "One that got away" story.
