Continental Drift for April 2, 2012 — Panama

If school has got you yearning for a relapse into Spring Break, it’s possible tonight’s installment of the Drift can help. Join DJ Felipe for a trip down South…. way South! Panama is seen as the gateway to the Pacific, and it’s location was strategic for Spain to trade goods to and from the New World.
