Last Saturday, 20th September, 2014, saw Universal Children’s Day celebrated in Germany and this year the Lions Club Oberursel-Schillerturm had come up with an event together with the town’s “Kinderbüro”: a Drachenfest. And since this year is the year of the twinning anniversaries, it turned into the “1st International Oberursel Drachenfest“.
Drachen is the German word both for a kite and a dragon, and both were present on the field at the end of the Platanenstraße in Stierstadt where the festival took place. One part of the field was roped off for kite-flyers, where the “Drachenclub Aiolos” from Rodgau soon had the first kites in the air and some larger models on the ground, including a dragon-shaped one.
Unfortunately the weather did not play along and so there were not only heavy showers during the day, but a thunderstorm as well. The wind was only slight, so that only a few children used the opportunity to fly their kites.
