The temperature was 11° C, when we left. It was raining cats and dogs. The fog was so intense, we could hardly see more than 100 meters in front of us. But the intention was to go sailing on Lake Constance (Bodensee) - and so we did. It was the best idea we could have! Real, fast sailing for a landlubber like me: Wind strength about 6 Beaufort, 9 knots, high waves. After 20 minutes I was soaked. We started in Friedrichshafen, sailed across the lake to Switzerland and came back within two hours. What an experience!
