A trip to the webcam

For those of you who watched my "surprise" appearance on the Bucharest traffic webcam, here is the building that the camera is mounted on. This picture was taken from across the traffic circle. When you go down the stairs that you can see on the traffic cam you enter a large area under the street. The Metro (subway) is located down there as well as many stores, it is like a small mall under there. Also it is the way that you cross this street. There are too many cars to try to cross on the street level.

Here is a closer view of where the webcam was located. It is on the balcony that you can see there. Also you can see the plants that I had to look over to be seen by the camera. If you can't see it then look here....


There right in the middle, in the white box is the webcam.That is what I could see when I was looking at you. Here is a funny story. When I was standing there and looking at the camera and waving there were many people around. One lady kept looking at me out of the corner of her eye, trying to figure out what was going on. She finally look at me weird and moved as far away from me as she could. I am not sure but maybe the bulldog logo on my shirt bothered her. Ok, it was probably that I seemed to be trying to communicate with someone who was not there. I thought about telling her what i was doing, that there was a webcam and I was waving at people in America, but I was afraid that she would run away screaming. Oh yes, and there were police officers all around helping to direct the traffic out on the street. So, if I had spoken to her I wold probably be writing this from the local jail! I hope you all enjoyed your chance to see me on a live webcam. The next post will include some pictures from my apartment, I promised Ms. Nunes' class that I would take some.
