Panama High Seas Survivor
Rescued castaway Adrian Vasquez, 18, rests on a lawn chair at his home in Rio Hato, Panama, Wednesday March 28, 2012. The Panamanian teenager who survived 28 days on a boat adrift in the Pacific Ocean arrived home Wednesday. The teenager and two friends left on a fishing trip Feb. 24 and were heading back to Rio Hato when the boat's motor failed. Vasquez's two friends died within three weeks. Vasquez was rescued Friday by Ecuadorean fishermen who stumbled across his boat off the Galapagos Islands. (AP Photo/Arnulfo Franco)
