Notting Hill Carnival 2013

Notting Hill Carnival is the street party to end all street parties. Known for its music, jerk chicken, flamboyant costumes and street dancing.
I go every year and this was one of the best ever!!! We went both days so here is a mash up of a few pics.

We came across some drummers on our way down to Gaz's, I really wanted a go on the guys stilts. 

Cider in hand I was ready to start my day. Badger cider and beers are the best.

He was loving it...Not sure where he came from though!

We arrived at Gaz's on Talbot Road and situated ourselves right at the front by the bar/stage. I've read up a little about Gaz Mayall and he has been performing on Talbot road since 1976 and is a massive icon of the festival. I could see why he had great costumes both day and had a great energy about him. His music was pretty great to, a mix of Rocking Blues, Reggae, Latin and Soul. 

We were so lucky, the sun was blazing and a very generous man kept on pouring free shots of golden rum into our mouths making us on flying form.  

 The sun went down the party's carried on.


Pin It Now!
