IN PANAMA, IT IS ILLEGAL TO WEAR PANTS ON TOP OF PANTS ON TOP OF PANTS: Now that's the Race I'm talking about -- yes, the frustrating Fast Forward that only one team can attempt at a time, but so much stuff reminiscent of the race of yore: foreign languages, taxi trauma, bribery, fastidious birdwatchers, hiring local guides, and true Killer Race Fatigue.

In foreign countries, random stuff happens. And I like it. Just two questions:
  1. Am I wrong in believing there was a faster flight going through Miami or Mexico City (or were the teams limited by the airlines they could choose)?
  2. Have I missed it, or have no other Teams That Thought They Were Last planned appropriately for a non-elimination leg?
