Today I bought plane tickets for an upcoming trip to Panama. I have seen a lot of amazing things while traveling in Panama. I have flown in military planes and cargo planes. I have landed on jungle airstrips and have been in planes that barely cleared the trees on takeoff. I have seen dogs sleeping, children playing, and horses wandering around on runways.

But I have never looked out of the plane and seen the airline officials sacrificing a goat to appease the sky god. You have to read about it to believe it.

I have never been so thankful for the air travel in Panama.
