The pictures I took at this weekend's Carnival in Notting Hill just do not do the event justice. If you add together the SF Carnival, Bay to Breakers and the Rose Bowl we may get close to how many people were in the streets dancing and partying! Also, my pictures of the 2 ton trucks with hundreds of speakers strapped on all sides can not translate the thumping volume of the music. You could almost hear the carnival from inside the tube.
Notting Hill used to be an area where many immigrant people, mainly Caribbeans and Africans found a home when settling in London. Today Notting Hill is a Million Pound for a tiny flat or 10 Million Pounds for a mansion, area. (Yup and if you do the conversion into Dollars, that's one pricey area!)
I went both days...just couldn't get enough!
