03 Jun: Church wedding - on a boat
Later in the afternoon and after everyone gathered up and met up to get on the boat for the religious wedding. A pleasure boat temporarily transformed to a "church" - the ceremony going a more "traditional" way with Ingrid and her father walking in, the wedding song, the priest, and exchanging the rings after saying "I will". The boat ride went on for about two hours through the Untersee of Lake constance, past Überlingen and Mainau island.
