Original Toronto Star caption: They got spliced aboard ship, Diana Friker and Anthony Baker decided to get married far from the madding crowd. So the two child care workers and a handful of guests set sail on the Harry Adams from Toronto's waterfront for points unknown in Lake Ontario today. When far enough away, the two dropped anchor, exchanged vows written themselves.
