1 EXPRESS PASS allows a team to skip or abandon any task at any one time through the 8th leg of the race. Jill and Thomas won the EP when they came in first in Leg 1 and they used the EP in Leg 4 to proceed to pitstop without completing the last task.

NEL Non Elimination Leg. Leg 3 Michael and Kevin came in last/ninth but will continue to Leg 4 where they will have to perform a Speed Bump

Very sorry Jonathan and Conner were eliminated. I was really hoping it would be Chad and Stephanie. If it weren't for C/S, I would like every one of these teams.

That sled course was not an easy task. I'm just sorry Jonathan and Connor didn't think earlier to switch it to the tent building. Ah well - they're great guys and good things will come to them!

so bummed they left. I laughed at them singing and skipping away from Phil. 2 great guys!

Some made the sled thing look easy and some made it look horrifying!

Next Week: Nat/Kat celebrate Christmas Norwegian style

Celebrating by eating something that looked gross to me?!

The Amazing Race 17 - Elimination Station: Via Sweden
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jgvs1_00pdg

For our Canadian Friends that can't view. Ron&Tony and Andie&Jenna decide to go out Whale Shark Hunting, they're not too sure as to what's involved, maybe they're supposed to swim with them? They're off on a smallish boat with canopy, everyone wearing little cute pink life-vests, even the guys. Big waves, whipping along fast. Then you see Andie sprawled out, looking uncomfortable, and Jenna says they might have to turn around.

Jenna says that they must have discovered another similarity - BOTH get seasick easily "Real Bonding" (then you see Jenna's back as she's hunched over the side of the boat). They turned around, no sharks but Ron&Tony were taking it with laughs.

Later back at the ranch lvg rm, all 4 are discussing who might be coming. They all agree that it could be anyone even a strong team, never know with the race. All agree they would feel terrible for anyone coming but, at the same time, looking forward to seeing someone. Maybe get some more fun people and keep the 'Party' going.

Connor&Jonathan come walking in & do a WanWanWan. Everyone happy and hugging. C&J of course had to sing their Goodbye Song from back at Phil's mat. C&J telling them that the race was getting to a kind of energy shift, that they could see a real difference in Guana. More tense, even catty and deceitful, more friction between teams, not as much fun almost stinky. They ALL looked happy that the 'Party' was about to commence.

The Amazing Race 17 - Connor and Jonathan Reveal the Code
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGLpWx82lao
The Ivy League a cappella singers show Brook and Claire where the infamous decoder hung in plain view at the school
- - -
Utt Ohh! They're painting the school with their roller brushes and B/C ask C/J where WAS that decoder sign (which has now been freshly painted over). Said that many had been doing some "circling of the children" (remember how people were drawing circles in the dirt?). C/J said they didn't do much circling of the children, then said "really? you missed that? it was huge (took up much of the wall behind them). This was funny! B/C took it well.

Tnt, there is not a youtube of the whole episode. There is a 4:28 clip of the teams looking for an earlier flight, which was near the beginning of the episode.

This week's Elimination Station is up, too!

I enjoyed the singing pair very much; hated to see them leave the race. I would far rather see that mean guy eliminated. Surely you know the one I mean: the guy who constantly harps at his girlfriend and gave her a hard time for being unable to finish the tech-sled event because she was really scared and had wrecked three times. He comes across as just mean and super-critical to me. Really reminds me of someone I live with!

I will miss the Princeton guys - I felt so sorry for the one who couldn't get down the slope on the sled. Their songs always amused me!

Chad and Stephanie? He really seems young and immature, and she is way too nice to him.

I'll miss the singers too. I liked their corny, funloving personalities.

Chad confuses me. I think he knows when he's being a jerk but can't help himself and then thinks that it's OK if he apologizes afterward. (Not that he is, but isn't that generalized abuser behavior? From what I've heard, as I don't have first hand knowledge.)

Except for Chad's tantruns on the hill, most of the people on this race are just nice people. For a change. It was hilarious watching J/C fail so many times on the downhill sled. But loved watching everyone and the mush dogs.

Jill and what's his name, with the Express Pass? While they thought they were going to need it to stay in the game, I bet they may be kicking themselves after seeing last night's episode and realizing there were 3 other people behind them.

Still wondering why there is no one listed coming in first in leg 02 on the chart above. Shouldn't Brooke and Claire be listed as 01, not 02, for that leg?

I wasn't so sure as to whether I was going to enjoy Nick & Vicki, but after seeing that she's dealing with asthma and yet so physical in all her endeavors - I'm really developing a fondness for them too.
