St. Helena - A remote island in the Atlantic

Every third week, a British Royal Mail ship begins its journey from Cape Town to Saint Helena, the remote island in the Atlantic where Napoleon was once in exile. It's like the end of the world in the middle of the Atlantic. Five days, with a northwesterly course, and only then do the sheer black cliffs appear in front of RMS St. Helena. The island's 4500 residents are often waiting impatiently for the ship's arrival and panic if the schedule changes.
