Muizenberg Kite Festival

This weekend was the annual Muizenberg Kite Festival. Since Muizenberg is one of the windiest places on the Cape Peninsula, it's the natural place to have a kite festival. Unless it happens to be the one weekend out of the whole year without wind! The first photo is from last year's Kite Festival. The next one is from this year's festival. You will see the difference! Even though there wasn't wind, people showed up in droves to eat carnival food (potato chips on a stick are delicious) and hang out for the day. It was still an entertaining way to spend a few hours this afternoon...

I did think it was interesting that you could get tested for HIV and TB at the Kite Festival. (That's what the booths in the picture below were for.) Not something you see at most carnivals in the states.
