From ezboard
Pretty much confirmed. 6 final teams.
Don't go further if you don't want to know any information.

6 teams arrived at Auckland International Airport on February 21st. How do I know? I was there. I was informed that a TV crew would be filming, but had no Idea it was for the Amazing Race until I asked someone (who worked there) who had asked the camera crew. They came off various flights, Including the KE823 from Korea, a Singapore Airlines flight, and an Air New Zealand flight from either Hong Kong or Singapore. There were at LEAST 500 other people waiting for loved ones, and the airport was extremely crowded but I was right up the front and just watched out for every time the camera men started running to the arrivals area. It was like watching a movie in an overcrowded theatre. There were 6 silver Land Rovers in the airport car park as well as the usual yellow/red/yellow flags. All the contestants had dirty belt bags on. A couple of Airport workers who were totally in love with the show followed the crew around and were talking about it, but not too many friends/loved ones/ or other passengers seemed to care too much about the show.

At approximately 11am, The first team arrived. It was a male/Female team. She had long blonde hair, and he was taller than her (no more details known about these 2) I did not get to see them, But they were spotted by a friend. They were leading the pack. They got out of customs between 11:30 and 11:55 am.

At approximately 12pm the second team arrived. ANOTHER male/ female team. She was slightly taller than her male companion. She had just below shoulder length mousy brown hair. Nice tan. VERY beautiful. Black short shorts and a black tank top. He was slightly built, with a semi mullet haircut (Not really a mullet) and he had a southern accent. They were filmed talking to a worker, and he had to sign a release form to allow his face to appear on TV. She wanted to go to the toilet. The cameraman followed her. He got directions from the worker (I think)

About an hour later team 3 arrived. An african American couple. They were both wearing blue bandanas I think. They left pretty quickly. He was of quite a large build, she was rather small, but very pretty with long black hair.

Team 4 arrived not long after- They reminded me so much of Zach and Flo, even though I didn't really hear them say anything. They were a bit panicky "Where'd they go? Where are the others?" They asked a few people if they had seen anyone with a camera crew...of course everyone said yes. He was tall with blond curly hair and she was short, with long brown hair.

Team number 5 ran right through the arrivals doors. They were major panicking. Two pretty much identical twin girls. Think Kelly Goldsmith, but thinner. There was a guy running around them, I don't know if he was a crew member or what, but he kept darting everywhere they were and it made me think he was one of the team members. But I'm sure he was just a crew member.

The final team to arrive were the soccer moms. It was a nice change considering all the teams beforehand were young male/female couples. They were really really nice. One even asked ME how to drive through roundabouts (In NZ we drive on the elft hand side of the road and go through roundabouts in a clockwise direction) They seemed sort of athletic. Well, they were your average soccer moms. One had a short blonde bob ( I even heard her name! It was Karen!!!!) and the other had shoulder length brown hair. By the time they arrive, 2.5 hours after the first team, the location camera crew had gone, and it was only their personal camera crew they were waiting for. They got directions from an older guy (A pacific Islander) while waiting for their camera crew who were in quarantine. He gave them the wrong directions. Once they had left, the young worker guy informed the Pacific Island man that he had given them the wrong directions, and the PI guy ran out of the terminal to tell them the right way. They were really, really, really sweet, and I hope they don’t get eliminated tonight or tommorow, whenever the next elimination is, because they left the best impression on me. Even the proucers and crew that were there seemed to really like them.

And that’s that. The location camera crew left for rotorua immediately after the twins arrived. Apparently they almost had an accident (them or the team in front of them) A few teams went the wrong way, probably not the soccer moms because they were given the RIGHT directions after being given the run around. This is all I can think of at this moment. If I think of anything else, I will post it. Oh yeah, I’ll match the contestants with their pics when they are released.

You know, Pamy, I think another reason I love AR so much is because we get behind teams but not so emotionally attached as we tend to do with Survivor. So while we might be sad to see someone leave or someone stay, it never seems to get as personal as it does with Survivor. Know what I mean?

I so want this show to start now!

i get emotionally attached sometimes. i hate to see certain teams eliminated, and get so mad when a team i don't like continues on.
sometimes i do get laughs out of those i don't like much, though...remember the legal eagles and neither one could drive a stick? and ian and what's her name when ian didn't put diesel in the car, even when his wife asked if the car took diesel?
i just want there to be 'new' people to dislike :-)
i already disliked alison and i don't need to see her again.

and, if alison's on TAR, will we be getting flo on BB? eeek!

I always thought Donny was shorter than Alison? Or close enough that you wouldn't specify one being taller? (wasn't that what Alison talked about in the house?)

I thought so too but all the pictures I've seen of them lately, he seems taller. Could just be the way they are positioned.

I thought that the only short guy she dated was Justin. In fact I thought at one point Donny made a slight joke about how short Justin was. Maybe thats where you thought he was short and got the two confused. I'm pretty sure Donny is very tall.

Ok, yeah, that makes sense. It got hard to follow some of Ali's comments at times... I can see the two of them doing very well on AR, which is either good or bad depending on your perspective...
