bottle makes 4,000 mile trip in 5 years

A bottle containing a note is found 5 years after it's thrown from a stateroom balcony on a cruise ship just outside of Freeport in the Bahamas. The bottle traveled 4,000 miles and was found by a retired electrician while walking his dog on the beach in Cornwall England. It took Tony Hoskings 7 weeks to find the note's author; 19-year-old Daniel Knopp from Baltimore MD. http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/bal-md.bottle09sep09,0,2298526.story
