Toronto International Kitefest Photos:
The TKF Kitefest held at Milliken Park in Scarborough last weekend provided flyers with good weather and great kites in the sky.
Two on-line galleries showing the kites, some of the kiters present, and the overall scene are found at: a) http://community.webshots.com/user/torontokitefest (Photos by Edwin of TKF)
