There's a very consistent rule I've found on planes. As long as it's departing from a US city and landing anywhere there's a Spanish or latin influence, there will be clapping and cheering as soon as the wheels hit the soil of the foreign ground. It's that way landing in Spain, Ecuador, and even Puerto Rico. Half the plane is having a damn fiesta and the pilot hasn't even hit the brakes yet. It's like they're about to start smashing up a pinata as soon as the seat belt sign turns off. That's pretty awesome. On my adventure through Quito and the Galapagos Islands in Ecuador, I was surprised by how many skate spots I ran into. Here are a few photos and banter: Skateboarding is Everywhere: Galapagos Islands.
