Do you know the Christchurch 'kite lady'?
A suburban park with a feather of warm wind carving a wave in the grass and a view of Christchurch's Port Hills beyond. A handful of string tightly held. Eyes skyward and a kite delicately dancing in mid-air.
Julie Adam has spent a lifetime enjoying these whimsical pleasures. Many know her simply as “the kite lady”.
“I have been flying kites about 60 years,” she says. “There's a picture of me in my pram with a kite tied to it.”
Do you recognise Julie from her kite-flying?
