“People should keep an eye in the sky for soaring falcons, fiery dragons, enormous suns, an astronaut and a sea of whales,” Adam says.
“In Ashburton we have the factory which makes the largest kites in the world. There’s a series of whales and a blue whale with a little baby.”

“The public won’t know the difference, but they fly on their own without needing a pilot kite to lift them,” she says.
