Chalk Horse and Kite Flying

21 August 2018, Tuesday

We drove about 30 minutes from Oxford to see the Uffington white chalk horse, a Bronze Age image of a horse carved into the hillside.  It would be more interesting to have an aerial view of the horse, but we enjoyed the pretty views from on top of the hill.  Check out a picture of the horse on wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uffington_White_Horse

And we flew a kite!  We searched several stores in Oxford for a kite, and finally found one in Aldi’s.  I had read that it is always windy enough to fly a kite on the top of this hill.  The kids enjoyed it :)
