It's Cyrillic and this is the language of Kazakstan. It's very funny because it says he/she congratulates holy holiday of Muslims, Eid ul-Fitr (wiki it) and it is maximum a week old because it is now holiday of Eid ul-Fitr. I am not kazakh, I couldn't read & understand it fully. It says, he is from NYC, he wishes all the bests and so on...


Thank you! Time to find a Kazakh speaker. The bottle was found on October 21st (more than a week ago) by the way, so we'll need a full translation to see what exactly is going on. You've been a great help.


It could have been sent on Eidul Adha last year :).


Probability of this Eidul Adha is more than hundred times higer than last year.


Pulled that one right out of the ol' keester, huh?


Hah, thanks. My suspicion (a sibling message). Came out true :).


Eid ul-Fitr was on August 31 this year.


I am sorry, but should be Eidul Adha not Fitr. Sorry.
