We should be on time tonight, because CBS for the most part is only doing the early game.

There's some conjecture based on previews for next week that it's either a NEL this week, or more likely, the dreaded "uberleg" (so we may end with a To Be Continued)

ACK! Maybe that uberleg is the reason the Lyn's were upset in the preview? Rats!

Sea, I think the reason the Lyn's were crying was they got to see video of their kids from home (saw it in one of the previews). If I was thousands of miles from my little monkey and hadn't seen him in several weeks, I think (know) I'd probably sob, too. Think they showed pictures of a sweet little boy and an equally adorable little girl. Kind of a dirty trick to cause them to lose focus, if you ask me!

Possibly would make them focus more as a reminder why they are there. Afterall, L/K did say they were only there for their kids.

And how often have they reminded us of the fact that they survived childbirth? Ugh.

LOL Woofy!

I survived childbirth! My best friend's, as she gave birth!!! I was her coach and was there during labor and delivery. If I can survive THAT (and boy, she was not a pleasant mom-to-be!) I can survive anything! <wink>

Mama, there is a reason why I ain't done it to myself. The first thing I said after Mia was born was "that was the single most awesome thing I've ever seen in my entire life, and I am NEVER gonna do that to my body!"

LOL ... My daughter said the same thing. She adopted the most beautiful child you can imagine and she doesn't have any pain to remember. Unless you call filling out 10 tons of paperwork pain.

Dustin/Kandice saying they always end up side by side with Tyler/James. She says it is like an uneasy truce but if they have to chance to break off they will.

Dustin/Kandice getting a taxi and Tyler/James grabbing the next one. There don't seem to be any others there. Erwin/Godwin get told by a passerby to go back and wait at the station. Rob/Kim ask if they can skip ahead and the people let them. Erwin/Godwin and Lyn/Karlyn have to get in the line... but Lyn/Karlyn jump ahead. Erwin/Godwin are stuck, they say for being polite. One says that being polite sucks sometimes.

Dang, I can't figure out if I think the Lyns are rotten for cutting in front of everyone (including the locals) to get the cab, or if I think that was just a smart move. I am thinking it was rotten....

Back in taxi line, Erwin/Godwin frustrated.

Dustin/Kandice and Tyler/James on their way. Dustin/Kandice arrive first and ask their taxi to stay. Tyler/James arrive and off in a rush. Dustin/kandice drop their bags to help them go faster.

DETOUR: Swamp This or Swamp That. Two messy games. SWAMP THIS: Snap on cross country skis and trudge through 1 mile course of mud. SWAMP THAT: Slog through obstacle course in the mud. Brute force rather than skill but even strong teams could get sucked into mud.

Dustin/Kandice doing Swamp This. James/Tyler doing Swamp That.

Lyn/Karlyn decide to do Swamp This. Rob/Kim asking for directions as they got taken to the wrong school.

Dustin/Kandice getting their skis as Tyler/James get going on their obstacle course.

Dustin/Kandice have on their skis and on their way. Lyn/Karlyn getting on theirs.

Erwin/Godwin and Rob/Kim arrive at the same time. James/Tyler helping each other. One seems to be a little stuck in the mud but he gets out. Dustin/Kandice climbing over an obstacle? James/Tyler on the carrying portion. Rob/Kim and Erwin/Godwin doing the Swamp This obstacle course. Making quick time so far.

James/Tyler switch who is carrying and keep going. Lyn/Karlyn over their obstacle and trying to get up now. Rob/Kim are stuck in the mud right now. Ack. Rob/Kim on the carrying now as Erwin/Godwin starting that portion. James/Tyler make it to the Run portion as Dustin/Kandice are over their last obstacle. They get "run" now. Racing against Dustin/Kandice now.

James/Tyler get clue. Take a train, 104 miles to city of TURKU and drive 78 miles to LOHJA. Find Limestone Mine and take tram to next clue.

Tyler/James are off. Dustin/Kandice at clue box and off again. Tyler/James changing real fast. Kandice and Dustin go as they are. They tell their driver to beat the guys. Dustin/Kandice say they are so surprised the guys took time to clean up then call them pretty boys.

Rob/Kim get clue with Lyn/Karlyn right behind and Erwin/Godwin behind them. Rob/Kim in their taxi and off. Tyler/James hoping they can get a train right away. Dustin/Kandice passing Tyler/James.

Lyn/Karlyn in their cab and off with Erwin/Godwin right behind. Tyler/James and Dustin/Kandice at the tarin station now.

There is a train at 3:11. It leaves in 5 minutes and they have to hurry. Rob/Kim arriving now as D/K and J/T running for their train.
Rob/Kim get tickets but not sure they can make it.

Tyler/James watching for other teams but the train starts to move... Dustin/Kandice happy that they are moving and Rob/Kim miss that train. Rob syas that was a race breaker right there.

Next train leaves in an hour. Rob/Kim, Erwin/Godwin, and Lyn/Karlyn all on the same train.

James/Tyler asking someone for directions to their next location as Dustin/Kandice look at their map for it.

Others boarding their train and also asking for directions.

James/Tyler and Dustin/Kandice in their cars now and off. Dustin/Kandice right behind James/Tyler. Rob/Kim getting directions. Rob/Kim not talking to Erwin/Godwin and Lyn/Karlyn. Rob/Kim say that Team Alabama judged them without even getting to know them so that set the tone.

James/Tyler and Dustin/Kandice both looking for the mine. James/Tyler see a marked door and go. Dustin/Kandice still looking for where to go.

James/Tyler are off and first ones going down into the mine. Dustin/Kandice arrive and told they have to wait a few minutes for the tram to come back.

Rob/Kim off their train with Erwin/Godwin and Lyn/Karlyn right behind. Rob/Kim are off. The other two teams in their cars and off. Erwin/Godwin in last place right now.

Tyler/James say shorts were a bad idea. They get to clue box. Roadblock. One must ride bike down steep incline. More than a mile into earth. Must attach chunk of limestone to bike and ride it back. Use tools to chunk into limestone to get clue.

I'm not sure which of the boys is doing the task. Dustin/Kandice off on the tram now, saying it looks like a roller coaster at Disney World.

Rob/Kim and Lyn/Karlyn together on the road with Erwin/Godwin right behind.

Miner Inconvenience was the name of it. Kandice is off on her bike. James is making his way back now and says it is brutal to come back up the limestone. He's pushing his bike up. Tyler and Dustin wonder what the other two are doing down there. Kandice passing James now.

James is back and starting to hammer into his chunk now. Kandice starting on her way back now. James hammering away and getes the clue.

Drive yourself to Olympic Stadium in Helsinki, 39 miles.

Kandice is making her way back now. Dustin yelling encouragement. Tells her that they didnt' leave long ago. James/Tyler are off in their car.

Dustin/Kandice get clue and are off. Dustin/Kandice hate that they are going to come in second to those boys right now.

Rob/Kim arriving now... not sure where the mine is. Erwin/Godwin and Lyn/Karlyn arriving at the mine.

Rob/Kim are lost. Erwin/Godwin and Lyn/Karlyn going down on the same tram together as Rob/Kim try to figure out where they are. Rob says they are out of it.

Dustin/Kandice arrive at the stadium and looking for where to go. Tyler saying that James is going to have a rough time. Tyler gets to the bottom. James turn now. James is afraid of heights. Tyler says he has total faith in James.

Dustin/Kandice going up to the top of the tower now.

Rob/Kim right behind Lyn/Karlyn. Erwin/Godwin passing Rob/Kim. Erwin/Godwin telling Lyn/Karlyn they need to lose Rob.

James is going down now. Tyler trying to talk him through it. James get stuck and Tyler talks him through how to do it. Rob/Kim, Erwin/Godwin, Karlyn/Lyn arriving together. James/Tyler get down first and the clue says, "Keep Racing." The leg isn't over. Rob yelling at Kim to "get over here."

FYI: I will be in San Francisco next Sunday (going to my sister's for Thanksgiving) so, if there is someone on the East Coast who can handle the spoiling next weekend, that'd be wonderful!!
