Flying high on Milwaukee's lakefront for the 37th Annual Frank Mots International Kite Festival

MILWAUKEE -- The sky was full of some bright beautiful colors along the lakefront this weekend, and it's all thanks to an array of kites catching some wind.

It was truly a perfect day on Sunday, September 13th for the 37th Annual Frank Mots International Kite Festival held at Veterans Park in downtown Milwaukee.

There were plenty of professional shows and demonstrations, but it also was a chance for families to have some high flying fun.
