See Oradea, Romania LIVE
See Oradea, Romania LIVE avatar

I came across this last Fall, but thought I would re-post it since the days are longer in June. It’s a live satellite feed from the top of the Courthouse in Oradea, Romania – the city I lived in from 2000-2005.

The cathedral to the right is a Hungarian Catholic church with a beautiful interior. That church was one of my favorite places to stop in and pray for awhile. The stations of the cross line the walls and there are windows at the top that let light come in and brighten the yellow-painted interiors.

The yellow building in the right hand corner is the building that Corina and I had our civil wedding ceremony in 2002. (Our actual wedding took place at Emanuel Baptist two weeks later.)

There are several apartment complexes in view. The one that is slightly left of center and towering out in the background is the apartment building that Corina and I lived in from 2002-2005. You can also spot an abandoned Jewish synagogue that is slightly right of center.

A funny side note. There are pigeons that keep flying in and around the right-hand corner of the screen.

Romania is 8 hours ahead of Central Standard Time. So if it is night when you are looking at this, it’s because it’s dark there. Try again tomorrow!
