Have you ever put a message in a bottle, sealed it and set it afloat on the ocean hoping that someone would find it? Well, I came upon a story in the Reykjavik Grapevine online about a friendship that started because of one such "message in a bottle". An Icelandic boy found the bottle that had been dropped into the Atlantic Ocean by a Canadian.

I just thought that these bottles just drifted out and sunk. It turns out that sometimes they actually do reach across borders...
