Thames River Festival

We went up to the South Bank on Sunday for the Thames River Festival just on the off-chance and it turned out to be a really good evening. We got there around 5-ish and browsed around the various music stages and food stalls then found ourselves a good spot to watch the parade go past on Blackfriars bridge. The costumes were amazing, some of them having won prizes at the Notting Hill Carnival - top honours, indeed!

Then it was more food stalls and settle down amongst the crowd around Gabriel's Wharf to watch an excellent firework display.

Then, of course, the inevitable slog through the crowds to get back to the underground, catch the last tube to Morden and arrive home around midnight, exhausted!
