12th August 2007London Mela
So we decided to do something this weekend and there was a Mela in West London on. We went with Priyanka and her husband Saleem to Gunnersbury Park. It was quite a good day out with many stalls (predominantly food based), rides and various stages that were showcasing music or some cultural talent. It was a very multicultural event and much bigger and better organised that similar events in Australia.
All in all, a very good day out.

| Gunnersbury Park is huge, the Mela was in only half of the park and that in itself was quite big | |
