Panama Canel: 5th pit stop. Godlewskis arrived last but not eliminated. Stripped of everything except passports and clothes on their backs.s

Paolo leaving at 8:22 PM. Travel to San Jose, Costa Rica on charter bus. Busses leave 30 minutes apart and are first come first serve. Uh, missed the name of the volcano that they are going to as a destination. Paolo mom thinks her boys are appreciating her more now. Father says its amazing when things go right but when little things go wrong, those things set them off.

They are bickering about the directions and finally grab a taxi.

Weavers leaving at 9:11. Daughter gives a short prayer. They say they see the other teams talking about them but they can't control that.

Bransen's leaving at 9:16. Girls going out to the street and father suggesting the hotel for the taxi but they say no.

Linz family leaves at 9:17. They say they've met some nice people but they are all starting to realize that as the teams get less now the competition is setting in...

Linz family gets a cab but the Weavers and Bransens still trying.

9:23PM and the Gaghan's leave. Daughter saying something about having to run to Costa Rica and son making fun of her saying they do have to run the 200 miles to Costa Rica. Gaghan's go to hotel and get taxi right away.

Weaver's finally get a taxi. Bransen's finally get a taxi too. Gaghan son sees that those teams are just now getting taxis.

Paolo family arriving at the bus station. They get on 11:30 AM bus. They realize they have all night to wait. They go upstairs to disappear.

Paolo's tell the Linz family where to go and Linz family on the 11:30 AM bus. Paolo's telling the Linz family that they were trying to make sure the FL team d idn't get on the first bus.

9:43 PM Godlewskis are off. They say they are going to need about $40. Girls say they have no choice but to try and use their feminine charms. They go inside and are begging. They have $21 and get a cab to the bus.

Gaghan's arrive ... Paolo's direct them. Weavers also there... Weavers get the 12:00 bus as do the Gaghan's.

Bransen family gets 12:30 bus. Godlewskis also on the 12:30 bus. Godlewskis going to beg for money. They ask the Weaver's and get $5 from them.

11:30. Linz and Paolo family on the bus and on their way. Weavers and Gaghan family on the 12:00 bus now. 12:30 bus and the Godlewskis and Bransens board.

San Jose, Costa Rica. Night time as the first bus arrives. They are off to pick up their vans. Asking directions on where to go. Paolo family trying to jog. Linz family looking at a map? Paolo family going to follow... they all get a taxi to lead them to the right place.

Bus #2 arrives. Gaghan's and Weaver's looking for where to get their vans. They are nervous as there is no one around.

Bus #3 arrives and they ask someone for directions on where to go. They are on their way.

Weaver's ask someone but they don't know where to go. Gaghan's now asking someone and again they don't know. They are lost and worried. Weaver mom asking for God to help them.

Wow. Less than an hour lead time for the Paolos, after doing that fast forward. That's really not a heckuva lot.

And why oh why did they put the FF right before a leg where it was almost guaranteed they'd stack up. Since they have to wait for the morning bus. <sigh>

Godlewskis/Gaghans/Weavers/Bransens all arriving at the van place at the same time. Godlewskis out first as the others are getting in their cars.

Weaver mom having a little difficulty with the stick shift.

Paolo's and Linz family well on their way now.

Godlewskis' pass a sign with a volcano on the side of the road and realize they are on the right way. Bransen's fighting a bit about getting out to ask directions. Weaver's see the sign to the volcano and are ok.

People arriving at the volcano now and its not open. Gaghan's arrive 3rd and are surprised they are so far up in the line up. Godlewski's arrive next with the Weaver's right behind them. Bransen's also arrive.

All waiting at the gates to get into the park. All planning to run, run, run to get there first. All running as the gate is opened.

Linz family gets their clue as do the Gaghan's.

Must go 17 miles to Doka Estate (coffee plantation)... must find clue. CAUTION YIELD AHEAD. All going back down now to get going.

Godlewskis in last place here. I missed the order of the people. Paolo son telling his mom to take it easy and take her time.

Weaver family in 2nd place now. Gaghan's in 3rd and Paolo's in 4th. Sons telling their mom she did good. Bransen's stopping to look for a map. Godlewski's in 5th place and Bransen's in last place.

Linz family talking about whether they should yield anyone. One thinks they should and suggests the FL family. The brother driving wonders if they should just suck it up and be mean for a day?

Weaver's asking for directions and all the other cars passing them. Another family... the Godlewski's I think? saying to yield the FL family.

All families arriving now... Racing to get to the box first. Phil explaining the YIELD to us. Paolo family yielding team FL.

ROADBLOCK. Find Red Coffee Bean... search through 800 pounds of coffee beans for one bean that is red. Mom Paolo is going to do it. Gaghan mom doing it. Lauren Bransen doing it as is Meghan Linz... All women working now. Trish Godlewski doing it. All yelling encouragement.

Someone getes it... Godlewski family. Must drive 94 miles to Jaco, small beach town and enter shop... find Javier to get their clue.

Paolo mom finds her bean and they are off. Iin 2nd place. Getting out of there before the FL arrives to find themselves yielded. Weaver's now making fun of the Paolo family picture.

Linz sister gets their red bean and they are off in 3rd place. Weaver family making fun of the other family pictures now. They try to think of positive things to yell as the Linz family passes them and Linz family notes they are sore losers when she wishes them good luck on the task and says it's hard and Weaver mom responds "yeah right".

Weavers noted that they are ganging up on them now. We go to commercial on them realizing that no one wants them here.

And I just remembered another reason why I don't like the Weavers (asking God for help during a game they signed up to play).

How vile are the Weavers? Making fun of the pictures of the other teams?
How about making fun of the Paolo's profession? How terrible!

I hope they are eliminated tonight.

I find it ironic that the Weavers are just now realizing that the other teams don't want them there. After the way they've interacted with the others (from what we've seen). Weavers, here's a buck. Go buy a clue. <evil grin> <smirk>

Back with Weaver mom saying she can't do it and that she's sick of doing stuff that she can't do ... as she is crying about this, she gets free and is off. Weaver's finally get going and kids say they are not going to give up and tell their mom to keep going.

Segway. It's a human transport vehicle. Not to be confused with "seque" which is a transition from one phase to another.

Yes Segway - I spelled wrong in my transcript there. I couldn't remember which way it was supposed to be spelled. :-)
