Time traveler washes ashore
From Times Wire Reports
A wristwatch buried in the ice at the North Pole three years ago was found more than 1,800 miles away after it floated ashore on Denmark’s Faroe Islands in the North Atlantic.
Niels Jakup Mortensen, 11, spotted a black box near his home on Suduroy, the Faroes’ southernmost island, said his mother, Anna Jacobsen. Inside was a watch that had been buried at the North Pole by Joergen Amundsen, a descendant of Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen. She said it was still working.
