On Floreana Island, is Post Office Bay. Used first by early pirates, a wooden barrel was placed up on the beach where sailors could place a letter to people back home. When another ship passed by, letters were picked up by those landing and taken with them to deliver to the addressee. It might take some time to get your letter. The practice is still conducted to this day and we all went through the letters to see if anyone near us had a letter for delivery.
