kites with Lights, 2014.
With temperatures still in the 70s and bright sunshine, it seems like Christmas is a long way off, but here it is November, thanksgiving is just two weeks away and it's a sure bet Santa is gearing up for his annual flight.
The Christmas season with Kitty Hawk Kites is really something special. We always begin the official season over Thanksgiving Weekend, with our Hangin' With Santa on Friday and Saturday with a visit from that “fat jolly old elf”. If it's raining or snowing or just too cold, Santa will be hanging inside the Kite store where they'll be hot cocoa and plenty of cookies.
Saturday evening make a point of checking out our kites with lights at Jockey's Ridge State Park as we paint the sky with lights soaring into the night sky attached to kites. Be sure to dress for the weather. It can be cold and windy on Jockey's Ridge.
The holiday season is a time for giving gifts and kitty hawk Kites has a great selection of kites, toys, games, clothing, footwear—just about anything needed for kids or someone special.
Of course there's lot's of other activities on the outer banks as well during the holiday season. One of our favorites is Winter Lights at Elizabethan Gardens on roanoke island. The Elizabethan Gardens is a wonderful 10 acre formal garden and during Winter Lights thousands of lights decorate the trees, plants and decorations. The Grand Illumination is Friday, November 27 and after that the Gardens are open Wednesday through Sunday to stroll along the pathways illuminated by the light of the decorations.
