Yesterday I went up to the cottage and spent a few hours with Dad. We walked to the lake behind the cottage, paddled across it in the canoe, and walked to this bog, where Dad wanted me to get some pics and videos to help him plan his hunting trip.
Yesterday was also the first day I flew my drone over the water. The first time, it started to drift away with the wind, so I brought it back and realized there was a compass calibration error, so I fixed that and then the drone worked fine.
I also brought it up to the highest [relative] altitude I've had it thus far, over that bog. This was taken at 118 meters.

I didn't get a lot of great pics around Munich (as compared to Paris), because we saw most of the city via bus tour and as you can see here, the frame of the bus got in the way a lot. This one was good enough to post regardless of the frame.
So it's Halloween. I manned the door for most of the evening. I was annoyed that I had no parties or places to go...this was the first year in many years where I didn't have an exam to study for on Halloween...but this year most of my friends were doing nothing or were busy. So around 7:30 I sat down on the stairs and read South Park and Philosophy and played Tetris on my Game Boy. Around 8:15 the doorbell rang and I got up to answer it. It was a teenage guy dressed in camo, a paintball mask, and a fake M16...and when I looked at him I saw sadness in his eyes. I gave him some candy and he said thanks and left...and I felt bad because he was alone. I mean, maybe he looked sad because of something else, or maybe he wanted to go out by himself, or maybe he and his friends decided to take opposite sides of the street...but it made me realize, to paraphrase "Message In A Bottle", that I'm not alone in being alone.

I decided to break chronological order and post this pic in the spirit of Halloween!
This is the first pic I posted to Flickr that was taken with my new Canon Rebel XSi. In several months, you'll start to see the rest of them :)
