COCOA BEACH, Fla. (AP) - When 10-year-old Alex Moody dropped a
message in a bottle in the Atlantic Ocean off Cocoa Beach last
year, he didn't have much faith it would be found.
But it was, by a family on the other side of the Atlantic, in
Cape Ferret, France. The European family recently sent Alex a
postcard at his Orlando home saying they had discovered his
message.
Alex, who says France is "cool," is planning to launch another
bottle this month.

It’s really only littering if it really is trash but if you are doing something like this, then I don’t see the harm, it’s really neat and interesting!!!

Lets see, this child could be doing a lot worse than throwing a letter in a bottle in the water. What a thrill for him to find out someone got his message in France I think it was pretty cool myself.
