Kite Flying
« on: March 10, 2008, 04:20:10 PM »
Today is Green Monday – a bank Holiday in Cyprus.

Traditionally, children fly kites on Green Monday.

Flying kites = good.

Flying kites near overhead power lines, bringing them down and blacking out the entire village, including the local army base = not good.
