Notting Hill Carnival 2014
The Notting Hill Carnival is the biggest street carnival in Europe set over two days during the August Bank Holiday weekend. Despite bad weather the two-day annual event carried on in full swing, proving it takes a lot more to stop the street party than a splash of rain.
Check out the pics from the rain soaked Notting Hill Carnival.
