Oldest Message In A Bottle
A family in Perth have found the world's oldest message in a bottle found and is almost 132 years old after it was thrown into the sea. Tonya Illman picked was going on a walk around the sand dunes in West Australia and picked the bottle up. They had found some paper in the bottle but didn't know what it was until they dried it in their oven. Experts have confirmed it was from a German ship. The bottle was thrown off the German ship Paula as an experiment and was dated 12 June 1886. The previous world record was 108 years.
I think this was a really interesting article. I found this article from Kiwi Kids News.
