The World Cup stadium in South Africa

Top tourist destination
 
Cape Town hosted its first football match on Saturday 23 Jan. The fans 
used the new park and ride system -i.e buses from the Cape Town City 
centre to the stadium to watch the match.

The Green Point stadium 
This stadium will host several matches,the quarter final 
on 3 July and the  semifinal, on 6 July  during the highly publisized  
World Cup to be played for the first time on African soil.

English fans as well as the South African fans will be anxious to 
see if their favourite player David Beckham plays when England plays 
Algeria on 18 June at this stadium.

Of course while football will be the main criteria for the avid 
fans visiting Cape Town, don't forget what Capetown can offer 
visitors. From the heights of the majestic Table mountain, to the
merging of the 2 oceans at Cape Point, from the blue seas known for their 
swimming and surfing to the Vineyards of the Winelands. Explore the 
history of the Castle to the present history of our political past on 
Robben Island.

Why not take a bus --and do a Hop-on Hop-off tour aboard an open 
top double decker bus and learn about Cape Town history, view the important museums, beaches and back to the Waterfront.

World Cup 2010 England vs. Algeria will be a thrilling game to watch specially with the appearance of Beckham. Getting back to David BECKHAM---if the 34year old   can take part it will be amazing-as we all know how he loved playing for England--but it will be up to the manager to decide if he will be part of the squad.

Who knows...we may still get to see this legend.
