Q: Take the name of an island. Move its first letter two spaces later in the alphabet (so A would become C, B would become D, etc.). Reverse the result and you'll have the name of another island.

What numbers are these?More challenging? That's debateable. This is basically a Caesar cipher, except shifting by 4 letters.
