The Snoopy Drone and Honeymoon on the Gold Coast

Matt and Linda were going to start a new honeymoon. After the marriage of the youngest daughter, all the children were well-bred. Well, married or not, they had excellent jobs in the metropolis, and the couple chose to move to the Gold Coast, on the east coast of Australia. They held a wedding confirmation party with the whole family, and with many friends from Brisbane and Sydney.

Barbecue, Soccer, Games … it was a success, but the couple wanted to enjoy their retirement with the gift of a youth spread in that landscape coast that they have always loved.

Matt, at the end of the party, when everyone was gone, looked romantic at Linda and shot, “Honey, could  just the two of us celebrate tomorrow?”
Linda returned the invitation with a smile that said “yes”. The couple always found the Gold Coast mornings the most romantic…

The next morning Matt looked out the window and contemplated the wonderful day that had just begun. He looked at Linda and thought of waking her gently when he saw a small black spot in the sky that moved slowly from one point to another in a short movement in the air. He found it strange and decided to wait a little. He ended up falling asleep and was awake with Linda calling him from the kitchen to have breakfast. “Wow, we will keep that for the next day”, he thought.

They had a wonderful day. At the end of the couple’s night as young fellows in love they walked in the garden of the house. Matt then made the same invitation, which was promptly confirmed. Linda gave him a warm hug and said she could not wait to get up the next morning.

And dawn came again. In the window, another beautiful day. Sounds of birds from the coast and … The little black dot. This time, Matt, decided to leave the house and investigate. Arriving in the garden, he saw that it was a Drone. In 2 or 3 minutes, after the Drone moved around in small spaces, he understood that he was being snooped.

A sense of invasion of privacy ran through him. How could they ruin their honeymoon with Linda like that? Matt decided to wait and see where the proof of the crime would go.

Unsurprisingly, the Drone flew quietly toward his garage, in fact an open space behind the house protected by walls. How so? Had the house been invaded? He recognized the quadcopter as really his own, he had acquired a few weeks ago. Who would be piloting his own Drone?

He ran rather alarmed and ready for an energetic action, opened the door of the garage of surprise. There was the Drone perched quietly on his workbench, at his power base being loaded.

With relative relief, he understood that the Drone had been programmed. And he remembered that his family was in the house a couple of days ago. But then he also remembered that this did not invalidate the fact that he was being gossiped and the blood rose in his temples. He remembered that his brother-in-law and nephew Geek had played with the Drone and certainly wanted to play a trick.

The two played with the artifact that day. Still with the object in hand, they seemed to have given up, and then asked if they could watch the fishermen that lived there and disappeared. It was mid-day, and even though it was strange why Matt had replied, “Of course, okay,” but he did not think it was a pretext to get out of there, and program his own Drone to snoop around. How Funny. He was already thinking of how much he would complain with his sister.

It occurred to him then, to go into the Drone application and see the media he had eventually captured. Which was not his surprise with the little videos he saw. His brother-in-law and nephew had discovered a nest of ospreys on a small cliff nearby.

And it was Drone’s route to take excellent pictures and videos of the nest, which allowed him to observe him from a distance from his window.

He thought it was the work of his nephew, but what an intelligent boy!

He had certainly programmed the Quadcopter for trips near the nest, pointed the camera and programmed the device for daily taking of the nest.

The material was getting sensational!

Hence the question they asked. They simply did not warn about this “programming,” but even realized they were having so much fun that they did not need any talk about technology or nature.

Matt decided to leave the Drone, with his harmless activity to him, Linda and own pups of fishermen, since filming the distance.

He relaxed again, and saw that everything was fine again in his house.

It was still early, it was still a beautiful day, and he smiled alone, imagining that there would still be time to wake up Linda.
