World Cup in 46 Days?

Cape Town welcomes the World Cup in 46 days and I am very afraid for them. The stadium itself is complete and gorgeous, but the surrounding grounds are no where near being done. Or started really. I can't help but wonder how this city is going to handle the oncoming foot traffic and mania. In general I've found the city very hard to navigate by foot. I've almost been run down more times than I can count due to the lack of sidewalks or pedestrian-friendly areas. Here are some of the photos of the area right outside the stadium, where they expect to host thousands of people in less than 2 months.






Go Cape Town, Go!!!

Have you been able to check in on the progress around the stadium? I wonder how they've been moving along.
