Notting Hill Carnvial, Sunday & Monday, Aug. 27 & 28
It is that time of year again. Notting Hill Carnvial, Sunday & Monday, Aug. 27 & 28
12-7 pm
It involves music, dancing, crowds, drinks and of course, jerk chicken. MMMMmmmm...
Here is a map of the route. The best way to get there in my opinion is to use the underground and then walk in. Make sure you that you are dressed comfortably with the possibility of rain. Also be careful of bags and wallets. Since you need to wade through the sea of people, it would be very easy to be pickpocketed.
It is a lot of fun. Come with an open mind and an open belly.
