    My Friend Found A Bottle Post On The Beach From A 5-Year-Old Boy, And Sends This To Him

    Hand-drawn map and letter seen among unexpected, interesting, and bizarre things found at the beach.

    ""Hi Mathias,
    Thank you for your letter! We are two girls who got very happy when we found your bottle on the beach in Løkken, where we are currently on vacation. If you look on the map which we drew you can see how far your bottle traveled. It is about 277 km in a straight line. We found the bottle on the 25th of june. So it must have taken it 12 days to reach Denmark. That is about 1 km/h which is the same speed as a land turtle walking. Our names are Mischa and Rowan. Rowan is 26 from Bristol in England and Mischa is 21 and lives in Århus in Denmark. If you look on the map you can see an arrow that points towards England. Rowan is working in the British army. Mischa wants to be an architecht and draw big houses. What do you wanna become when you grow up?. You can answer us if you want on email xxxxxx.
     
    Best regards Rowan and Mischa.
    P.S. The sweets are for you and your friends in the kindergarten. Can you guess what flag is on them?"
