The tradition of throwing a message in a bottle at sea and the ocean has existed since time immemorial. Now this method is even used by scientists to study sea movements. But two brothers from the Italian city of Talakko abandoned their message from the Adriatic Sea simply wanting to have fun. However, a bottle with their letter was eventually found. About this writes Il Resto del Carlino.

Seven -year -old Raffael and eight -year -old Samuel in July 2023 decided to write a message, put it in a bottle and throw it at sea. All this thanks to his grandfather who told them about this marine tradition. As a result, the brothers wrote a short note, explained who they indicated the phone number of their grandmother Carla with a request to everyone who finds this message to contact them again. Put it in a bottle and threw it into the sea from a boat.

After about two years, this bottle was found in Croatia. Sali, a 55-year-old artist who lives in the North Dalmatia region, contacted Carlae. According to him, he found a bottle with a message in a bottle stuck among the stones.

But he could not make out almost anything except the phone number, which he called.

" The idea belonged to Grandfather Massimo, but they did not hesitate, because they were very curious children, and decided to write this message to meet other people from other countries, ”said the mother of the boys.

Raffael spoke about his successful experience at school, so classmates and teachers were also impressed with this excellent story.

" This man told us that in the summer he will come to visit us at our beach resort, it will be a very pleasant meeting for children, but also for all of us, ”said the boys' mother.

Grandfather Massimo told reporters that he himself survived this pleasant experience in the past when he found a message in a bottle many years ago.

" The note said that he was looking forward to returning home to France. Since then, I also tried to write messages and throw them into the sea, but this is the first time that someone found them and contacted me, ”the Italian said.

Recall that in the USA they found a message in a bottle that drifted around the ocean of 148 years. It was written on the back of the business card of the famous Philadelphia instrumental company W. \u0026 J klemm, which worked in the 1800s.
