Message in a bottle's ocean voyage unites two teens on both sides of the Atlantic

A voyage that began on the coast of Rhode Island in 2018 concluded in Portugal's Azores Islands just last week. It's where 17-year-old Christian Santos found a message in a bottle. Santos said the message talked about a Thanksgiving trip.

"He was 13, he was visiting Rhode Island, and he was from Vermont," Santos told CBS News' Michelle Miller. That 13-year-old is now 16-year-old Sean Smith. He and his relatives tossed several bottles in the ocean that day back in 2018. "A couple of them got found not long afterwards, but then two and half years later, I completely had forgotten we'd even done it," Smith said.
