Ride the Wind Day

Date When celebrated : This holiday is always held on August 23

Ride the Wind Day is a carefree day to soar above the earth. You can catch a ride with the breeze, or float along slowly like a gentle, late summer cloud.

Summer will soon be over. Catching the drift of this day is easy. Just relax, and let the wind carry you away in whatever direction it is blowing. Leave your troubles and worries behind for a spell, as you waft in the air.

Here are some great ways to enjoy Ride the Wind Day :

• Fly in an airplane

• Fly a kite

• Parachute

• Hang glide

• Take a motorcycle ride

• Hope in a sailboat, and go for a ride

• Just kick back and enjoy one of the last days of summer
