NATO comes to town …..
04th September 2014
For the next two days Cardiff and Newport are hosting the NATO summit. Security is amazing. Cardiff City centre and the Bay are surrounded by a ring of steel and there are extra policemen on duty from all around the UK. At the moment it is all very good natured, I haven't seen any signs of the expected protestors as yet.
Several warships including HMS Duncan have arrived in Cardiff Bay and I've added a few photographs. It was impossible to get a vantage point clear of the security fencing so I've deliberately included this in my shots to give a real sense of what the security measures are like. Surprisingly, there was totally unrestricted access to Mermaid Quay so I've added a few evening photographs of this area as well.
