Oldest Message in a Bottle – level 2
14-03-2018 15:00
A woman in Australia was picking up rubbish on a beach when she found a bottle with a message inside it.
It turns out that the bottle came from Germany in 1886, and the message was also old and from a German captain.
The find is the oldest message in a bottle in the world! You can see it in the Western Australia Museum.
Difficult words: rubbish (things that people throw away), find noun (something special which people find).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
