I am a few days away from Cape Town and will not be able to show Stadium updates till Monday

New 2010 Green Point Stadium as seen from Milnerton Beach on a windy afternoon.

The wind was so strong I could hardly stand still,I and my camera were eating sand so I had to beat a hasty retreat

We are experiencing extremely strong gusts of wind at the moment to give you an idea of the dust I took this shot a few hours ago, you can clearly see the dust being kicked up, its one of the reasons the mesh facade got dirty so quickly, the other reasons is the heavy trucks racing up and down the dirt road near the stadium I can often not shoot because of all the dust in the air.

This shot is from a strip which had just been attached

Remember the 2 sheets hiding something ?
The space to the right of the sheet is where the other one was
They were doing the staircases
