I've been putting off writing about this for a week, because I couldn't find a form of words that would entertain readers as much as being there and being part of it entertained me. On reflection, this is entirely understandable as a parade down the Embankment with five radio-linked music systems, fifty skaters, dancers, slalom, jumps, fancy dress, and (best bit) a cohort of insufficiently dressed samba dancers on the float in front is always going to be more fun to be in the middle of than to read about.

Anyway, you might get a better idea from the video:
