How did Jane receive a letter from a stranger?


My daughter, Jane, never dreamed of receiving a letter from a girl
of her own age in Holland. Last year, we were travelling across the
Channel and Jane put a piece of paper with her name and address on it
into a bottle. She threw the bottle into the sea. She never thought of it
again, but ten months later, she received a letter from a girl in Holland.
Both girls write to each other regularly now. However, they have
decided to use the post office. Letters will cost a little more, but they
will certainly travel faster.
