On the Sat afternoon we went to an engagement party of the daughter of the local preacher. The party was in the grounds of their home, which is a beautiful garden and quite large, which was just as well as there were about 300 people there. There was a formal church service for the engagement and I was surprised that there were vows and the exchanging of rings. It felt more like a wedding. However the wedding will take place after 3 months. After the ceremony 300 people all got their meals in a very short time from the buffet and then went home just as quickly. Not much standing around talking. However, I understand that there had been a party the previous night for the young people.
