I was disappointed that Azariah and Hendekiah were eliminated. I was so hoping it would be an non-elimination round.

What's up next week that no new episode will be shone then?


Survivor finale and reunion show -- 3 hours' worth (which hopefully will start on time, and not 30-60 minutes late, due to football ... I can't stay awake that long!).

Azaria and Hendekea were my favourite so I was sad to see them go...I kept thinking "non-elimination round, non-elimination round." What an unfortunate turn of events for them.

It was an interesting comparison (to me) to see Azaria and Hendekea realize that what had happened was against team rules and fix it right then and there even though it meant being behind. Yet Nate and Jen seemed to have no problem using an "illegal" means of transportation - at least that is how things were portrayed on the show.

Jen is seriously getting on my nerves. I hope Nate doesn't stay with her after the show. I know that is mean, but come on, why should he stay with someone who every time things get a little rough she screams that she hates him.

It was nice to see Ron and Christina come in first....though did he say that he didn't know what a catamaran was? I have to admit, that I'd be a little upset if I came first and rather than getting a trip, I won some sort of boat I would never use! Ah well, could always sell it and take a trip!

I sure hope Nate & Jen get eliminated soon, the constant screaming is just getting on my nerves.

Disappointed to see Azaria & Hendekea go. They certainly do have a close relationship. I have to say, I'm definitely not that physical with my brother.

I was so devastated when Azaria and Hendekea got eliminated! What an unfortunate turn of events. I'm stilll trying to come to terms with it. The only thing I didn't do was cry

Did anyone notice that the teams are traveling with no luggage. Usually the team members are struggling with their huge backpacks to get into cabs or dumping them if its a foot race to the mat.

I think that this portion of the race was filmed when the airlines tightened up on the carry-on luggage policy (after the attempted bombing in the UK) So you couldn't carry-on any liquids like hand cream, lipstick etc. etc. There was even a time when the only thing that you could carry on was a see through sandwich bag containing your passports and important documents. The Amazing Race members have all their stuff as carry on so that they don't have to wait for baggage to come through on the luggage thingey in the airports!

So what happened to their luggage? I'm guessing that they left it with Phil and the film crew who took it with them to the next pit stop. Any ideas from anyone else?

I wonder what's the penalty for traveling first class suppose they had never realised until they were on the plane. Is it a 30 minute wait at the pit stop, instant elimination or what??? Because it doesn't make sense for Phil to send you back to the previous country to take another flight which is what he did with Nate & Jen???

Coincidentally, I didn't know that getting a drop from someone was not allowed in the race. I was suprised (but pleased) when Phil told Nate and Jen they had to go back (He! He!He!) much to Jen's chagrin. She is so getting on my nerves!!!!!!!

P.S.S. Survivor's 2 hour season finale is the reason why there'll be no TAR this week.

No Amazing Race last night had me stuck watching "Bruce Almighty".

Now that Survivor-China is finished, I wonder if TAR will get the Survivor spot on Thursdays?

They've never moved TAR on a Thurs to fill in for Survivor in the past so I don't see that changing.

I hope they don't move it. I hate it when I am in the habit of watching things certain nights and then they switch it up.

I was relieved that it was a non-elimination round. I didn't want the goth's eliminated yet. The previews made their "meltdown" appear worse than it was. It was completely understandable given the amount of stress and not having slept in well over 30 hours. Even so it wasn't that bad.

I agree -- it wasn't too bad. It was a little surprising when Kynt is always so mellow, but not nearly as bad as some of the others who regularly fight.

I was glad it was a non-elimination, too. I figured we were about due for one. It has a new little twist this year.

I was surprised that Don was reluctant about the tattoo -- I figured he would've been gung-ho. But I am glad there are still people in the world with reservations about permanent tattoos.

My husband was like, "No way." He probably would have turned back. I'd go ahead and get it. It was only two "f"s and if you win a million dollars you can afford to get it removed later.

My hubby and I would probably of gotten them... I would be the one with the most reservations though! Knowing that the fast forwards can be so extreme though we probably wouldn't of taken it in the first place

Did they have a choice where the tattoo went? They didn't seem to, but I wasn't sure if that was just editing.

I don't think they said whether or not they had a choice as to where the tattoo was placed.

I think it was something for them to get the tattoo. His grandson will have that tattoo for a long time and it will remind him of his time with his grandpa. Plus how many contestants will really have a souveneir for them to last and to share to their grandkids someday that they were in the amazing race .

It can also stand for Friends Forever!

I don't think I'd bother going for a fast forward - knowing they're usually extreme. But, in this case, I would've done it - even though I would normally never consider getting a tattoo. Can always get it removed later.

I normally agree about NOT getting tattoos, but in this case, I would have. Like someone else said it is ONLY two small ff's

Though I normally wouldn't have a tattoo, either, I think I would have for a chance at a million -- but I would have asked if I could have it on my shoulder or somewhere not so visible. But like others said, I don't think I'd do a fast forward anyway. The one where the wrestlers had to drink blood in some kind of ceremony or the one lady had to shave off her hair would have cured me!!

I was so glad that this was a non-elimination round.

Speed bumps!?! I wonder what it will be. I hope it's not a daunting task!They keep changing up little elements of the race ever so often. I guess this is to keep racers on their toes. The producers must have noticed that avid TAR fans usually have ways of plotting to get around detours, elimination rounds etc. All the same I'm glad they've stopped taking away your money and possessions on the non-elimination legs. And the speed bump sounds like an interesting twist. I wonder what it will be.

Maybe they have to take left over fruit cakes & place them on the road.

Awww .... shoot. Other than TK & Rachel, I would've rather lost any other team. If he had only gotten the correct receipts (or they had yielded the right team!) ...
