The winds in Yuracoto are consistent. Every day from 1-4pm, its a good sailing day. Therefore, I recently decided to try to make a kite out of dried corn stocks, plastic bags, packing tape, and yarn. Although the cometa (kite) looked good during and after production (see pictures) the wind and gravity gods did not approve. However, it was nice to see the host-family take a break from working in the chacra and spend some quality time watching the Gringo try to fly his kite.
