Everybody loves a good festival. The Mayor's Thames Festival was an eclectic mix of world music, world food and world performances. Yeah, London is a world city and let's celebrate.

As if Open House wasn't exciting enough, the Thames Festival happened on the same weekend.

The Feast on the Bridge was crazy. Sand, turf, sofas, Victrolas an Indian tent, candelabra on a long table, hay, a gingerbread house, cart of pumpkins, and three colorful musician playing Amy Winehouse's "Rehab".
