The Russian family received from England a response to their letter in a bottle.

A family from a village near Moscow Razvilka set up a correspondence with a resident of the UK in a very interesting way: 14 months ago they threw a bottle into the sea with a letter sealed in it, and not so long ago an answer came to the e-mail.

As Svetlana Bogza, the mother of two daughters and a son, told while on vacation in Bulgaria, her husband and children, playing Robinsons, drew funny drawings and wrote a message to the unknown in English, enclosing contacts and an e-mail address to him. The bottle drifted for more than a year into the sea, until it reached the English beach in Weymouth, in the south of England.

The dog found the bottle. According to the pet's owner, 65-year-old Idris Martin, he was walking with her along the beach. “Suddenly we noticed a plastic bottle in the water, I decided to play with the dog and threw the bottle, but the dog already brought another, glass bottle. I took a closer look and noticed some kind of letter inside the bottle. Then I brought the bottle home, I had to break the bottle to get the letter, when I took out the papers, they had drawings of Maxim, Sofia and Polina,” Martin said.

According to the TV channel, from that moment the families began to correspond, although the Russians did not think that anyone would find a bottle with a sealed message. In addition, participants in the exciting story are still amazed how the bottle could make its way. Professor Sergey Dobrolyubov, head of the department of oceanology at Moscow State University, believes that the current would carry a bottle to Africa, and not to the north to England. He suggested that the bottle was caught by one of the sailors and thrown into the Atlantic.
