hopefully, this is the night we say goodbye to Lynn and Alex. Waiting in anticipation for the tears because they didnt outlast Rob and Amber. We will hear them going off into the sunset, "I hate them..I hate them..I hate them"

I'm ready for Ray & Deana to go bye-bye. I can't stand his jerky ways. I've wanted to reach in my TV & slap him more than once.

LOL, so happy to see this thread!! Do you think it is to hours because there might be a non elimination leg?? We haven't had one of those yet I don't think.

dipo, we know it's legs 5+6 tonight, so we're pretty sure leg 5 is non-elim (we're due for one anyway).

Haven't watched this all season, but giving it a shot tonight. I don't know who to root for, though. I never liked Rob and Amber on any of their Survivors, so I'm probably not going to start now.

Rob & Amber departing at 3AM. Flying to Johannesburg, South Africa and choose a car to get next clue. $217 for this leg.

They grab a taxi and get going. Rob says they've had a guardian angel so far.

Brian/Greg - 3:38 AM

Rob at the airport looking for the best flight to Africa. Varig - San Paulo leaves at 10:55 AM and arrives at 6:55 AM.

Brian/Greg getting flight now. The guy tells them there is only one flight at 11AM. They get tickets.

Uchenn/Joy are off now. I missed what time they left but it is now daylight outside.

Ron/Kelly right behind them. Ron says they could go to a travel agency but Kelly thinks they can do it all at the airport.

Lynn/Alex off at 6:11AM.

Uche/Joy at the airport now with Ron/Kelly right behind. The ticket counter lady says they must check their backpacks. Kelly gets told the same thing.

Lynn/Alex getting tickets now - they note there are only a few tickets left and they hope Deanna/Ray will miss it.

Ray/Deanna leave at 9:20AM. Ray is stll bitching about being in the back and that they have some old people to beat.

Mere/Gret off now - I missed their time of departure.

Ray/Deanna getting tickets, making sure they haven't missed a better flight and they hope that Mere/Gret will get a flat tire on the way.

Mere/Gret hurrying to the airport.

The others are amazed that Ray/Deanna caught up.

Mere/Gret checking on flights now... they get seats on the plane. They are so happy. Somebody says, "The gang's all here."

Rob is disappointed that he and Amber lost their 8 hour lead.

Ray/Deanna are asking the flight attendants if they can get off the flight first. Uhh - they were in first class?! How did that happen?

Flight lands. Ray/Deanna off first. Everyone off to get cars with Ron/Kelly and Uch/Joy going to get their bags.

First Fast Forward. First team to find and complete can skip all tasks and go directly to pit stop.

Orlando Cooling Station - Balancing 30 stories above the ground they have to get across suspension board and get the clue.

DETOUR. Tunnels or Tribes.

Tunnels: Drive 50 miles to underground caves. Repel 45 feet into earth and search labyrinth for clue.

Tribes - 5 tribes. Must find items that match each tribe and deliver it to each chief to get the clue. There are 6 items so they have to figure out which one belongs nto which tribe. I missed how far they have to drive.

Ray/Deanna going for the fast forward.

Lynn/Alex not doing the fast forward. They decide to do the tribes.

Rob/Amber are also going for the fast forward.

Mere/Gret getting in their car and trying to decide which to do.

Brian/Greg doing tunnels.

Ron/Kelly and Uch/Joy waiting on their backpacks. Ron/Kelly get theirs but Uch/Joy still waiting. I'm not sure what Ron/Kelly are doing, I think tunnels?

Uchenna/Joyce still waiting on their bags.

Back at the airport Uchenna/Joyce's bags have finally come out and they are happy. They decide to do tunnels. They lock the car and go get a map.

Ray/Deanna stop to ask locals for some directions. Rob/Amber do the same thing. Rob/Amber worried they may have done the wrong thing.

Ray/Deanna worrying about the same thing. Rob/Amber now following a local.

Ray/Deanna arrive and have to take a number. Deanna wonders what they are going to have to do... She says, "Oh man," when she sees the bridge. HOLY COW. That looks freaking scary. Ray is working his way across now.

Lynn/Alex decide to stop and ask directions to the village for the tribes. LESDI Village. They arrive and get to work. They pick up their first item and get a necklace (ahh, must collect a necklace for each item).

Brian/Greg stopping to ask directions as are Ron/Kelly. Ron/Kelly think they have perfect directions. Uchenna/Joy have a map but still having difficulty.

Rob/Amber arrive at the water tower now. Ray is still working his way across the tower. Rob/Amber decide they will wait to see if the other team can finish the fast forward. Ray says it's the scariest thing he's ever done in his life and Deanna knows she has to do it now.

Greg/Brian get directions now.

Ron/Kelly arrive at the caves and getting suited up. Brian/Greg arrive and go to get suited up.

Ron/Kelly getting ready to repel down. Ron is off first. He's down and Kelly is off next.

Brian/Greg waiting for their turn. They are going down now as Ron/Kelly are off into the labyrinth.

Ron/Kelly crawling through the caves. Kelly says she feels like she is in the Army.

Deanna starts on the bridge. Ray tells her, one slide at a time.

Rob/Amber talking about whether they should wait. Amber points out they'll be in last even if they do the detour now. They are still talking. Amber really isn't sure - Rob asks her to make the decision. Deanna is stuck in the middle now...she says, "I can't." I'm not sure if she really meant she can't do it or just that she couldn't take the next step just yet. (Editting at play to help build the suspension.)

I think that Rob/Amber should ask the people getting them set up in their gear if they know where the two detour spots are located. Then they'd at least be aware of how far they have to go...

I agree, Raen.

I loved to see Rob get a little pissy at Amber. I guess he's not always as laid back as he wants everyone to believe.

P.S: Ray has got to go.

Back at the tower...Deanna makes it across and they kiss. Rob/Amber are off now.

Ray/Deanna so happy that they won. They high five.

Rob/Amber trying to figure out which detour to do - and Rob says which one is closer but he's all turned around. They are a little frustrated.

Ray/Deanna on their way to the pit stop now. I'm not sure where it is - I missed that part.

Lynn/Alex get their second necklace and then their third.

Rob/Amber joke about going to the hospital - to get directions actually. The nurses and doctors recognize them from Survivor and they are hugging everyone. They get directions are off again.

Mere/Gret stopping to get directions ... oops they almost get into an accident. Gret says repelling will be easy compared to getting there.

Ron/Kelly are going through the caves now.

Brian/Greg are crawling on their bellies and they can hear Ron/Kelly.

Ron/Kelly get out somehow but it's not the right direction and we see a picture of the clue in the dark cave as they read the previous clue that tells them where the clue is...

Brian/Greg get the clue ... Drive themselves to town of Soweto. Near center of town is the market and they will find next clue there.

One of them points out the clue to Ron/Kelly and asks them for help getting out of the cave.

Lynn/Alex complete their task and are off now to Soweto.

Mere/Gret arrive at the caves and the guide tells them to never jump in the cave. They head down. Gret says they have to be very careful. They are looking around now as Uchenna and Joyce arrive.

Uchenn/Joy repelling down.

Ray/Deanna arrive at the pit stop. They are team #1. They high five. They win two 2005 RAV4s. They are happ and high five again. They kiss and hug.

Rob/Amber arrive at the village - hmm, they don't pass Lynn/Alex so they must have left already. They start working on their items. They get their first necklace.

Brian/Greg are asking for directions to the market as are Ron/Kelly.

Brian/Greg not sure where they are as Ron/Kelly get the clue.

ROADBLOCK. Baragwanath Market - search the market for 5 items for an orphanage. I missed the items... backpack. Toy. diapers... shirts and blanket

Kelly is bargaining with her US $$ for a backpack.

Mere/Gret see a marker finally as Uchenna is worried he can't make it through a passageway. Uchenna wonders why they didn't do the tribal thing as Rob/Amber are quickly moving through their tribal items and get the next clue. Rob high fives the chief and is off.

Lynn/Alex getting directions now.

Brian/Greg finally arrive at the market. Greg is doing the shopping. Brian is yelling encouragement and jokingly tells him to pick up some deodorant as they are running low.

Mere/Gret come out of the cave and are looking for the clue and realize they've screwed up and were supposed to get the clue inside the cave. Gret is upset that they now have to go all the way back down again. Meanwhile, Uchenna/Joyce got the clue and are back up and leaving again.

Gret/Mere suiting back up and Uchenna says to Joyce that they know they are better than last.

Uh oh! Gret falls down and yells for help. Meredith now yelling for help from the guides.

lol @ Dipo

It's not to be though - well, based on the standings so far - they are already ahead of Uchenna/Joyce and Mere/Gret.

I'm not fond of Ray or Deanna but I have to give them kudos for doing that suspension bridge. I couldn't have done it. Having no where to put my hands would have done me in on the bridge.

You know, if Gretchen would just stop babbling and pay attention to what they are supposed to be doing, they wouldn't always screw up or, in this case, get hurt.

I agree with you (again), Raen. I couldn't believe they walked across without a hand rail.

You know, I am thinking it may not have been the best time for Ray/deanna to get the fast forward, but his ego just can't allow him to be in the back. We shall see.

I bet we never hear the end of Ray (and Deanna) now that they came in first on this leg about how he is so much better than the other teams.... hope next leg he's last again!
