5th April 2005?
05/04/05?
At any rate, there aren't a heck of alot of SPOILER threads out there. I'm sure people will figure out that it is not any of the other dates...

Yada yada yada - the last pit stop of the race. Phil explains the race again.

Ron/Kelly depart at 5:29 AM. Drive 185 miles to Sankuyo Village. Kelly was reading the bible and subsituting her name to say, "Kelly is kind, Kelly is patient..." She hopes that's how she will be today.

5:43 AM Rob/Amb depart. Amber is glad they get to do the race and enjoy it together. Rob says the gloves are off now. Rob is commenting on how he's never seen this type of terrain before.

Uchenna/Joyce leaving now (missed the time - sorry). Uchenna says it's amazing to experience this...nothing like being on the land where your ancestors are from.

5:52 AM Lynn/Alex leaving. Alex says he and Lynn play the difft from everyone else. Comments that he hears the others bicker, etc. but he and Lynn are just sneaky.

Gret/Mere are off now...also missed their time of departure. They are just so glad to have survived this long.

Greg/Brian leave at 6:22 AM. They are off... they say they'd love to take Mere/Gret out today (as they are the closest team to them). THe one driving (I confuse them...) makes a comment about the bushmen telling him how to track the other teams. They comment how beautiful the sunset is and one says, "We should be dating."

Ron/Kelly not sure if they should follow the road signs or the route markers. Kelly asked if she's gotten on Ron's nerves and he says no.

Rob/Amb driving down the road and can't believe there is an ostrich who keeps jumping out in front of them. They are just glad to have this experience.

Lynn/Alex are passing someone... I think Uchenn/Joy. Uch/Joy say they zoomed right past like they were standing still. Lynn/Alex pass through a herd of cows crossing the road.

Uche/Joy go right through the rest of them.

Mere/Gret see a water tower and think maybe it is the one from the clue. They wonder if they are lost but no...they are still on course.

Greg/Brian now seeing the water tower too.

Ron/Kelly get next clue. DETOUR. Carry it or Milk it. Carry - balance three items on their head and carry them to cooking area approx 70 yards away. Can not use their hands. Could finish fast if they can master balancing act.

Milk goat to fill 10 oz cup. Could be simple but it's not as easy as it looks and could take them a long time.

Ron/Kelly were going to do Milk it but change to Carry it instead. They start with the water bowls first. Ron is out but he spills a bit and Kelly is far behind him. Ron tells her she does ballet she should be able to do it. They decide to do Milk It instead.

Rob/Amber are going to do Milk It.

Brian/Greg are at the other water tower and have no idea where the clue is. Brian climbs it and they are frustrated they can't find the clue.

Hmm did Phil say They were in Hari Hari Pants? I thought that was pretty funny, but it could just be my ears.

Milking or carrying. Not very good carriers here. Unchenna and joyce seem to be the only ones who can balance the jugs on their heads. Little racist by a racer remark there saying they were born to do that.

Greg/Brian still at the water tower. They are now rereading the clue and realize they must pass through the city first before they will get to the water tower.

Ron/Kelly are herding their four goats over (sorry I missed that part before). They have them all and are starting to milk and then realize that Rob/Amber are there. Ron/Kelly say that they need to stick to a decision once they make it.

Rob/Amber switch to Carry it. Amber carries her first load over and moves on to the second but Rob can't do it so they go back to Milk It.

Ron/Kelly second guessing themselves some more as Rob/Amber get their goats. Ron says it is going to take forever.

Lynn/Alex saying they love that car. Uche/Joyce and Gret/Mere all watching the animals as they pass. Greg/Brian say they are playing like dummies.... but they will come back.

Rob and Amber milking away as are Ron/Kelly.

Lynn/Alex arrive with the others right behind them. All teams except for Greg/Brian are there...

Lynn/Alex doing Milk It.

Mere/Gret doing Milk It.

Uche/Joyce doing Carry It.

Ron/Kelly have a little tension now as Rob and Amber are moving right along. Rob says Amber has the technique down now...

Lynn/Alex realize that Ron/Kelly and Rob/Amber have been there a long time and decide to change to Carry It.

Uch/Joy doing it pretty easily while Lynn/Alex are having difficulties. Lynn says that they need to go milk the goats and that Uch/Joy were born to do this... Off they go as we go back to Ron/Kelly's tension increasing.

Mere/Gret are working on the milking now. Lynn/Alex having trouble rounding up their goats.

Uchenna talking Joyce through carrying the water now, telling her not to worry about the others now.

Rob/Amber are lil' under but Ron/Kelly get their clue. Drive 21 miles through bush to a point along a river. They are off. Kelly says she would have liked to try milking one and Ron tells her he would have liked to do the balancing. She says to get over it.

Rob/Amber get their clue and are off as Rob tells Amber she did a good job milking them.

Uche/Joyce have one item left and they do it quickly and get their clue. They are in 3rd place. Joyce says they did good to make up some time there... Uchenna says village people from his father's village do the same thing all the time.

Lynn/Alex and Mere/Gret working away. Mere/Gret are done and get their clue.

Lynn/Alex still working ... Mere/Gret say they don't know where the river is and Lynn/Alex comment not nto worry that they are going to get lost (referring to Mere/Gret). One of them says under his breath, "How many gay guys does it take to milk a goat?"

Greg/Brian finally arrive as Lynn/Alex arrive saying, "Where were the brothers?"

I missed with Greg/Brian were going to do...

Rob/Amber right behind Ron/Kelly. Amber says she thinksn the difference between them is that she and Rob use teamwork and they don't.

Uche/Joyce behind them... Mere/Gret seem to be lost. They say the girl pointed down that road but Mere says he hasn't seen a marker in a long time.

Meanwhile Lynn/Alex's car suddenly stops and they say they are screwed unless they can get another car quick.

Thanks Padivius. I guess my hearing is more amusing to me than the show.

I didn't hear any racist comments. What was it? I did hear Lynn/Alex call the older couple stupid.

Love this statment.. I'm sure someone will think Rob and Amber were taunting Ron/Kelly instead of literally getting goats...
