Aired April 29, 2007
The race at the 11th Pit stop in Macau, China
Dustin and Kandace left at 2:15a
The next clue was to fly to Guam
My trusty schedule at www.cruisinaltitude.com showed the following choices:
· 7:55am 8:25pm NRT 10h30m JAL730/Continen7 M/D 777/738
· 8:30am 8:25pm NRT 9h55m NWA2/Continen7 /D 744/738
· 9:10am 8:25pm NRT 9h15m Cathay504/Continen7 /D 744/738
· 9:15am 8:25pm NRT 9h10m HKDrago360/Continen7 /D 330/738
· 9:40am 8:25pm NRT 8h45m ANA912/Continen7 M/D 763/738
When describing the task, they show a Boeing 747 taking off from below and another Boeing 747 landing. I was unable to determine the carriers.
Charla and Mirna left at 2:50a
Oswald and Danny left at 3:06a
The blonds got on the first ferry
At 4:37a Oswald and Danny left and got the 6:30a ferry
At the airport Dustin and Kandace tried to get a flight.
They got Cathay Pacific (CX) to Guam via Tokyo departing at 9:05a and arriving at 9:50p
Charla and Mirna called on the phone and made reservations and picked up the tickets at the airport.
So I think Danny and Oswald should get this same flight.
All the three other teams so far are on the same flight
They showed a CX Boeing 747-400 at the gate while showing Oswald and Danny running through the airport.
They did show the interior of the CX plane with Eric and Danielle seated.
Oswald and Danny were late, so they missed the 9:05a.
They then showed a flight attendant closing the door to an airplane followed by a Cathay Pacific Airbus A330 taking off.
The next flight for Oswald and Danny at 10:15a which makes the same connection in Tokyo-Narita, Japan (NRT). They will have 45 minutes to make the connection.
They then showed a CX Boeing 747-400 at the gate followed by a CX Boeing 747-400 taking off. It was great that they showed a map of the racers going from Hong Kong to Tokyo and then to Guam.
They then showed a United Airlines (UA) Boeing 747-400 landing in what I assume to be Tokyo-Narita.
Three teams were aboard. They were all connecting to Continental Airlines (CO) 7 to GUM at 17:05. They showed them checking in and getting their boarding passes.
They then showed a Cathay Pacific Boeing 747-400 landing with Oswald and Danny aboard. They showed them heading to the Continental Airlines check-in counter.
The flight was boarding so they had to really hurry.
They then cut away to a Continental Airlines Boeing 767-400ER sitting at the gate and then cut away to the interior of a Continental Airlines Boeing 737-800.
The flight looked pretty empty as they waited for the others to arrive. They showed Oswald and Danny running to the lane and cut away to an engine of a plane running.
They showed a Continental Boeing 767-400 at the gate a few times, but the interior shot was that of a Continental Boeing 737-800.
All four teams made the connecting flight to Guam.
They then showed a Boeing 777 taking off; I was unable to discern the carrier.
They showed an airplane landing as well, but I was unable to tell which airline it was.
They had to wait until the next morning at 7:00a to meet their military escort as they were going onto a military base. So they could have caught the last flight in and still would have had enough time to get there at 7:00a. The last connection choice would have arrived at 4:30a the next day.
Once in Guam, they had a detour, they had to clean the plane or drop a care package
Charla and Mirna did the care package while all the others did the other task the blonds were first to finish cleaning the plane drive to the US naval base in Guam where they will be driven to the next clue
Then Eric and Daniele were next. Charla and Mirna were trying to rush the landing of the flight
Oswald and Danny were now done; then the plane land and the girls ran off the plane
All four of them are on their way to the naval base now Charla and Mirna was lost
Next clue Road Block
Do a naval search and rescue mission
Kandace and Dustiin were first; Dustin did the task
Then Eric and Danielle; Danielle did it
Oswald and Danny lost asked a taxi to lead them
Mirna and Charla were next to arrive; the Charla did it
Dustin was first to get to the landing zone
Now drive to the next pit stop at Fort Soledad, the last team to check in will be eliminated
Dustin and Kandace were the first to arrive and they are in the final for $1M
They also each won an all terrain vehicle
Danielle was the next to get picked up
Then Charla gets picked up by the helicopter
The Oswald gets picked up by the helicopter
so they are close now Charla landed first
then Oswald
Eric and Danielle were team #2 to arrive and are in the final
Charla and Mirna were team #3
So Oswald and Danny get to go home...
Karma is a bitch!

Amazing Race All Stars - Episode 10
Aired on April 22, 2007
The show started in Hong Kong at the Hong Kong Jockey Club (#10 pit stop)
Oswald and Danny left at 3:41a
The clue was to travel by Turbo ferry to Macau in China; they each have $73 they have for this leg of the race.
Dustin and Kandace left at 5:23a
Go to the Macau Tower is the next clue; there is a Yield ahead
When Oswald and Danny got there, they realized that the Tower opened at 10:00a, I hate that; this means that most of the others will catch up.
At 7:06a Charla and Myrna left
Danny and Oswald told Dustin and Kandace that if they don't pay them they will Yield them
The girls conferred for a bit and decided to pay then $45 if they used the Yield on Eric and Danielle instead of them. The boys accepted the deal as they were running low on money.
At 9:31a Eric and Danielle
By now, Myrna and Charla had joined the other two teams.
The ride they had to do for the clue did not open until 11a.
Charla offered Oswald and Danny money, but since they had bribed the others they declined it
The top of the Tower is on the 61st floor; so they had to take the elevator up there.
A Road Block is the next clue - Walk around the outer rim of the Observation Deck and jump off the building; Kandace, Danny and Charla did it.
The next clue is to take a taxi to Lou Lim Yoc Garden to find the next clue
Eric and Danielle was just arriving when the blonds were leaving
Oswald told Myra that they yielded Eric and Danielle, and Myrna said that they would have given them money if they had asked.
Eric and Danielle were not too happy about being yielded
Eric gave Danny the finger as they passed him waiting in the distance.
Danny jumped off the tower next
Then Charla jumped off
Oswald and Danny got to the next clue first
It was a Detour
Noodle or Dragon
Make noodles in a restaurant or Find a dragon head and drum and take to the boat
- Myrna and Charla had trouble driving the mini moke as neither knew how to drive a stick shift
- Dustin and Kandace were the first team to arrive at the Pit Stop; they won a wave runner each
- Eric and Danielle were the second to arrive, so now they have to wait a half an hour before being checked in.
- Charla and Myrna were the third to arrive, but were team number 2 since Eric and Danielle had a penalty
- Oswald and Danny were lost a bit and now there was ten minutes to go with Eric and Danielle
- As time ticked Eric and Danielle were quite nervous, but it was time to check-in so they were team #3 to arrive
- Oswald and Danny were the last team to arrive and since this was the last non-elimination leg they are still in the race, but with the 30 minute penalty for the race. Karma will get you every time...

Amazing Race Allstar - Episode 9
Aired on April 15, 2007
Dustin and Kandace left at 12:28a
The new clue is to fly to Hong Kong; here are the choices that I got:
Some Thai airways flights over Bangkok, Singapore Airlines over Singapore and Malaysia Airlines.
They show a Singapore Airlines (SQ) Boeing 747 landing as well as an ANA Boeing 747-400 landing; both the wrong airplane for this segment of the race.
At 1:29a Charla and Myrna left followed by Danny and Oswald at 2:19a.
All the teams had trouble getting out of Malaysia
Oswald and Danny got out first.
A vocal fight ensued between Dustin and Charla about their position on the standby list
Oswald and Danny gave Charla and Myrna their position on the list, but Dustin and Kandace thought that was unfair, so they were debating with the ticket agent about it.
Dustin and Kandace got on the flight next and then Myrna and Charla got on that same flight
9:05a was the next flight via Ho Chi Minh City arriving at 3:20a
A Malaysia Airlines (MH) Airbus A330 was shown taking off, then they showed a MH B737 taking off with whom I thought were the four girls.
Then they showed a Cathay Pacific (CX) A330 landing with Oswald and Danny
The next clue was a Fast Forward - the second one of two
It was to participate in an action packed stunt sequence
At 12:55p they showed Charla arriving in Kuala Lumpur International (KUL) with Dustin and Kandace
Oswald and Danny completed the Fast Forward, then had to drive to the Hong Kong Jockey Club as the next clue.
They have to bring the gnome they encountered with the next clue with them
Eric and Danielle finally arrived after the others have already started the tasks
Myrna went on the wrong Ferry sadly
Oswald said they only had $20 left and they had to spend it to pay the toll.
Candace did the road block; kicking down doors
Oswald and Danny were first to arrive at the pit stop and won a travel package to Hong Kong to celebrate the Chinese News Year
Candace found the clue in the house where she was kicking down the doors and must now drive to Victoria Park for the next clue.
They did that and then got the clue to drive to the next pits spot at the Hong Kong Jockey Club
Charla did the door kick in one
By now, Eric and Daniele completed the karate kick clue and headed for the kick down the doors exercise
Dustin and Kandace were the second team to arrive at the pit stop with the gnome
Then Charla found the next clue
Eric did the kick down the doors deal
Then Charla and Myrna got the gnome in the boat and headed for the Jockey Club for the pit stop
Eric and Danielle were just getting to the park after Charla left
then Eric and Danielle had to go to the Jockey Club
Myrna and Charla were trying to find the club
Eric asked for directions
Charla and Myrna were #3
So Eric and Danielle were the last team to arrive but it was not an elimination round, so they were saved; however, for the next round they stood the chance to be eliminated as they have a 30 minute penalty.

Amazing Race All Stars - Episode 5
Aired - Sunday, March 18, 2007
I missed the original air time as I was delayed in returning home so a friend of mine taped it for me.
The show started at
The others were shocked that Rob and Amber were no longer in the race, but were also glad they were gone.
Oswald and Danny were the first to depart at 12:02a
They had to use a device to find an avalanche beacon which is buried with their next clue at Marshall Glacier.
At 12:06a Eric and Danielle departed, followed by Terri and Ian at 1:04a, Joe & Bill at 1:55a, 1:58a Dustin and Kandace at 1:58a, Uchena and Joyce at 2:38a and finally at 2:41a, Myrna and Charla. It is so much easier now to keep track of everyone.
The ski lift to the glacier opened at 8a so everyone caught up; it is kind of pointless when they do this; I think they should let them enter the Glacier based on the same time intervals that they had departed the pit stop.
Joe and Bill were first to find the beacon with the next clue which was to fly to
Teams had to use a travel agency to buy tickets as they could not buy the international tickets at the Ushuaia airport (USH). They then showed an airport with a Qantas A330 at the gate...I am pretty sure that was not Ushuaia. In case the contestants could not find an earlier flight, they were all given tickets for the last flight to
Uchena and Joyce were the next to find the clue.
Terri and Ian were #4
Charla and Myrna were #5
Dustin and Kandace #6
Oswald and Danny were last to find the clue
There was a flight departing at 9:40a which Oswald, Danny, Terri and Ian were able to get.
At one point you could see the reservations as the camera panned across the printer, but it was fuzzed out.
I must congratulate them though on showing the full routing of the trip:
After landing, they all got a car with a driver provided; the next clue was a road block:
Who smells a rat
Then they had a detour
Pamper: go to the market and convince people to paint their nails
Porter: fill 10 large 45lb bags with coal
Myrna and Charla in first place as they finished the task first - nail painting, they won a trip for two from Travelocity to
Dustin and Kandice were #2
Terri and Ian were #3
Oswald & Danny #4
Phil said he was surprised they went for the coal
Joe and Bill #5
Eric and Danielle #6; Eric said they got beat by a bunch of queens (referring to Joe and Bill)
Uchena and Joyce were the last to arrive; this not an elimination round though, but the bad news is that they must arrive 1st at the next pit stop or they have a 30-minute penalty.

Amazing Race All Stars - Episode 3
Aired - Sunday, March 4, 2007
There are now nine teams remaining
They were in the Valley of the Dead at the second Pit Stop
Rob and Amber departed at 11:39p
The next clue was to drive to San Pedro de Atacama for the next clue.
At 12:18a Oswald and Danny left.
When Rob and Amber got to San Pedro de Atacama, the clue is to fly to Puerto Montt. As they explained that a LAN Chile Airbus A320 in the new LAN Chile livery was shown taking off. Then a LAN Boeing 737-200 was shown landing. It was also in new colors
Joe and Bill next to depart, followed at 12:33a by Eric and Danielle, then at
12:34a Uchena and Joyce,
12:48a Dustin and Kandice,
12:50a Teri and Ian,
Charla and Mirna were next
12:55a David and Mary
Calama, Chile (CJC) is the nearest airport to Puerto Montt, Chile (PMC), however there are no nonstops flights, so they had to connect via Santiago, Chile (SCL). There is also another flight that connected via Antofagasta (ANF), Chile.
Rob and Amber found a travel agency and bought tickets to Puerto Montt arriving at 12:55p. All the others camped out at the LAN ticket counter at the Calama airport.
Uchena and Joyce thought about booking the tickets online, for the first four teams that had first arrived at the airport. They left to find an Internet kiosk which they did. However, they did not get the security codes for the cards of two of them.
By the time the counter opened, only the flight arriving at 1:55p was available for all the others.
Eric and Danielle were able to get on that 12:55p flight as well.
They then cut away to a LAN Boeing 767-300 taking off to show they were leaving from from Calama which should have been an Airbus A319 and then they showed another Boeing 767-300 landing at Santiago, Chile (SCL); of course should have been another Airbus A319.
At the airport they got on the standby list for the earlier flight; they quickly showed a Boeing 767-300 taxing at SCL.
Unfortunately, the flight was checked in full, so none of them could stand by for it.
They then showed a LAN Boeing 767-300 taking off at 11:15a, then an A320 taking off and landing as the first flight; aargh.
1st. flight
Rob and Amber
Uchena and Joyce
Joe and Bill
Eric and Danielle
2nd flight
All the others
Next clue
Road Block
Fish Farming - catch 80 fish and find clue at the bottom of the tank
Amber
Danielle - freaking out as Eric yelled at her
Joe did it
Uchena did it
Danny did it
Kandice did it
David did it, although Mary says he is afraid of fish
Uchena is first to finish
Clue - drive 50 miles to Petra La Maquina for the next clue
Joe was next to finish
Then Mirna arrived and did her clue
Then Amber and Rob was done
Then Eric and Danielle was done
Dustin and Kandice was done next
Then David and Mary were done next considering he was afraid of the fish
Oswald and Danny were done next
Then Teri and Ian
Charla and Mirna left last
Rob and Amber arrived first at the location for the next clue
Then Eric and Danielle arrived.
The next Clue is a Detour:
River wild - 2.5 mile white water rafting and get the full clue
Vertical Limit - 40' rock climb and get 1/2 clue at the top; they never explained how they would get the other half, but I guess the ½ clue would tell you how to do that.
Dustin and Kandice are doing the wrong thing it seems as they did not pick up the clue, they just went down the river, then picked up the clue at the end…I am sure they will get into trouble for that later.
Rob and Amber got the clue first as they finished the white water rafting.
It read: Drive 3.5 miles to Playa Petrohue which is the next pit stop.
Again Rob and Amber were the first to arrive and each won a full home gym; this is getting tiresome with them winning all the legs; Rob did comment that he was hope they won the 13th and final leg as that is the one that really counts.
Uchena and Joyce were #2
Eric and Danielle were #3
So Dustin and Kandice were the 4th team to arrive, but they did not pick up all their clues so they had to go back; they did not pick up the clue for the Road Block. They then went back and got it, and arrived as the official team #4 to arrive; no one came in during all that time – weird.
Oswald and Danny were #5
Teri and Ian were #6
Joe and Bill were #7
Charla and Mirna #8
So David and Mary are last, now what?
The music is somber as they arrive as team #9 and they were eliminated!
It is time they get out of Chile now...
There are now nine teams remaining
They were in the Valley of the Dead at the second Pit Stop
Rob and Amber departed at 11:39p

Amazing Race 10 - Episode 13 (The Finale)
I was actually home to watch this one and also taped it to ensure that I got all the cool stuff.
Aired December 10, 2006
The race started at: 25 after the hour due to the football game going over.
Phil recapped the episodes and prepared us for the final two hours where one team will win $1M and the race
From the 11th pit stop in Barcelona, Spain, Rob and Kim left at 11:09p
The clue is to go to the Sagrada Familla to find their next clue
It’s been under construction for the last 124 years; they do not know that this is the building they want. They asked the locals, found out the name and then took a cab there.
Having arrived second, Lyn and Karlyn left at 11:24p. They asked two boys for directions to the church. Funny how people were still up and about at that time of the night.
Rob and Kim could not find the clue as usual.
At 11:53p James and Tyler left and saw three girls and asked for directions.
Then Rob and Kim found the clue finally.
As Phil explained the next leg of the trip, they showed a Boeing 777 from behind flying; nice shot! It could have been an Air France aircraft or a Continental aircraft. The clue is to fly to Paris, France to the Eiffel Tower for their next clue.
They then got a cab and went to the airport. I’m sure they have to wait until the net morning to get a flight, since it was so late.
Then James and Tyler got to the airport. They got to the airport at 1a and the desk opened at 4a. So they all had to wait
James and Tyler argued about checking for an Internet café and one said why bother, then settled down on the floor to sleep with the others.
Now Bama finally found the clue box and hailed a cab for the airport.
They looked at the boards and saw a few flight choices.
Vueling.com at 6a to Paris
Iberia at 7:25a to Paris
As the windows opened they all tried to buy tickets, but there were only three seats left on that first flight and Rob and Kim got the first two.
One seat left for the 6a and Tyler and James were next, but they needed two seats of course, so they have to get a different flight. The lady told them to go to Air France in Terminal A. Odd as I thought that would be where they would have gone first; geez…
So Bama started to walk over to Iberia, while Rob and Kim got on the first flight with 1:05 minutes lead.
Bama got the 7:25a flight to Paris’ arriving at their second airport, Orly at 9:05a using Iberia; can’t find that flight in my schedules… The girls did ask which one is closer to the Eiffel Tower and the agent said Orly, which is true.
James and Tyler argued about the fact that they could have done something last night as opposed to just sleep and wait for the ticket office to open; oh well, hindsight is 20/20.
Then they got on the 7:05a arriving at 9:00a into Charles De Gaulle on Air France.
Rob and Kim were shown boarding a Vueling.com’s Airbus A320, they then showed them settling in inside the interior of the plane.
As they showed Flight 1 at 6:00 a.m., an American Airlines Boeing 757-200 was shown taking off! Holy cow, what happened to the Vueling.com Airbus A320 they just boarded?
Next they showed the two boys getting on an Air France Airbus aircraft as Flight 2 at 7:05a and showed an A318 taking off, but the scheduled flight is actually an A321. There was also a British Airways Airbus A319 landing as well.
They then showed Bama heading out to a parked Iberia Airbus A319 on a bus on their way to Orly. Then showed them settling in onboard as then as Flight 3 at 7:25a.
So Phil says all three teams are now on their way to Paris, France and once they land, they have to make their way to the third floor of the Eiffel Tower where they will find their next clue, and they showed an Air France Boeing 747-400 landing; nice, but could they at least show one of the types they took off with?
When he mentioned Flight 1 arriving at Paris Charles de Gaulle, they showed an MD-80 landing. Then showed Rob and Kim taking the RER B into the city as it was faster than taking a cab and less costly as well.
For Flight 2, they showed an Air France Boeing 777 taxiing at Charles de Gaulle airport; then they showed Tyler and James asking airport employees for the faster way to the city. They agree that the train is the way to go, but there was a long line to get tickets, which is usually the case at De Gaulle depending on when you arrive; especially early morning.
Next they showed what I think is an Iberia Airbus A320 landing at Orly, then showed the two girls walking down the jet way and getting a cab into the city.
Lyn and Karlyn arrived first
Followed by Ron and Kim
The new clue is to take the train from the St. Lazare station to Caen airport for the next clue.
Finally Tyler and James arrived and got the last clue and headed for St. Lazare
Ron and Kim took the Metro after asking directions while Lyn Karlyn took a taxi.
So did James and Tyler as they were really running behind now.
The train to Caen was at12:25p.
Ron caught up with Bama and now they are all on the same train to Caen
In Caen they all took a cab to the airport for the next clue.
Road block: fly to 13,000’ and one team member do a tandem skydive and then a surprise aerial nose dive to Omaha beach. Then be taken by jeep to meet their partner
James and Tyler were first; Tyler will jump.
Then Bama
Then Rob and Kim arrived crashing into the clue box
So Rob is bummed as he wanted to do the skydive, but it is Kim’s turn
So is Kim as she wanted him to get that opportunity.
All teams suited up and headed aloft for the task.
James and Tyler’s team were first
Then Bama (Karlyn jumping)
Then Rob and Kim (Kim jumped)
Once on the ground, they went to the train station to meet their partner
Jams and Tyler were first to reach the ground; the new clue is to head by train back to Paris for 163 miles, to Place de la Concorde for the next clue
James and Tyler at 5:33p arriving at 7:37p
Then Bama
Then Rob and Kim
Now they are all on the same train
Rob and Kim had to change money at the post office into Euro so they went to the post office 10 minutes away as they had time; will they miss the train?
A train showed up and they (Bama and the boys) took a train at 5:10p
When Rob and Kim showed up they wondered where they all went
So then the 5:23p train showed up. Did the others take the wrong train?
So there were two trains and now they are caught up at the connecting station arriving in Paris at the same time
In Paris, finding a taxi was a chore as usual
Bama first
Rob and Kim second
As Tyler and James waited
Finally they got one
Bama arrived first
But Rob and Kim found the clue first.
Art – pickup a painting and take it to an artist
Fashion – create a jacket at a fashion school
Rob and Kim asked for direction to the fashion place
Bama showed the fashion as well
Then James and Tyler arrived.
Now all three are doing the fashion assignment
Bama was the last to arrive.
Finally James and Tyler finished and got the clue.
The clue is to fly to New York, NY and go to find the giant globe in a building for their next clue. New York would be the last stop.
They showed from underneath, a Boeing 747 taking off when they talked about NY,
I think it belonged to Air France.
Then Bama got it completed
Rob and Kim were last.
So Bama went to Orly in error; NO!!! I shouted. They thought that the other teams have no idea about Orly, so they may have an advantage; WRONG!
Then Ron and Kim are on the way to Charles de Gaulle and are arguing as usual
They, the boys arrived at Terminal 2C
The first flight is at 8:25a no seats in Economy though; they went on the waiting list, but did buy a ticket on Continental at 9:55a arriving into Newark at 11:55a.
So now Bama is at Orly and find out they have to go to CDG
I wonder what time they arrived as there are pm flights.
Finally Rob and Kim arrived late as it was dark. Rob and Kim asked and they got seats on that 8:25a Air France; I wonder how that happened?
But they could have flown to a connecting city; London and taken a British Airways or Virgin Atlantic late flight into New York. I guess they were not thinking. It is hard as I am not sure what time they arrived at the airport. Even then they could have gone to London and took an early flight the next morning from London to New York and still arrived at the same time as the Air France flight.
The next day, we saw Bama and the boys are waiting to get on the 8:25a flight
Footage showed a Continental 777 taxing a well as an Air France flight.
James and Tyler were called to the desk and got two boarding passes
Bama did not get on and had to take the Continental flight that arrived later, thus sealing their fate.
Rob and Kim had the look of death on their face when they saw the boys boarding…
They then showed a Continental Boeing 777 taking off though although they were on board an Air France aircraft; an Airbus A340 I think.
Then they showed Lyn and Karlyn at the Continental Airlines ticket counter getting their tickets.
Then they showed an Air France Boeing 777 landing, but it was actually landing in Paris Charles de Gaulle, although they were supposed to be in NY.
Then they showed an American Airlines agent opening the door to an American Airlines plane, then showed Rob and Kim running in an airport.
Now Rob and Kim are following James and Tyler to the News Building.
James & Tyler’s cab tried to lose them, but that did not work. At the toll bridge, Rob and Kim’s taxi did not have an easy pass, so they lost them. However, the cabbie did know where the globe was.
James and Tyler arrived their first. The new clue is to go to east village and fine the Alamo sculpture shown in the picture and find a woman in a yellow cap who will give them their next clue. They were at 42nd street and have to go to 8th on foot!
Then Rob and Kim arrived.
They both stopped and asked for directions.
A guy told them that it was at 3rd avenue and 8th street
James and Tyler arrived there first.
Next clue take a cab 56 miles to Garrison in Putnam county to St. Basil Academy where the first to arrive will win 1M dollars.
The first cabbie did not know where the place was.
No sign of Bama at this time.
Then Rob and Kim arrived and found a cabbie that knows where is the address.
The driver got directions as he drove to figure out where to go.
So the cabs arrive and we don’t know who the winners are but I think it is James and Tyler ahead of Rob and Kim.
And so it is they run in and all the other contestants are waiting and cheering them on.
Phil says:
4 continents
13 countries
40,000 miles
James and Tyler you are the official winners of the Amazing race
It is not a two-hour finale at all…
Now Rob and Kim came running in
Saying “Damn the boys won!”
The other racers cheered as they ran in.
Then Bama arrived, not sure how long after in tears.
Next Amazing Race All stars coming in February 2007.
Aired December 10, 2006
The race started at: 25 after the hour due to the football game going over.
Phil recapped the episodes and prepared us for the final two hours where one team will win $1M and the race
From the 11th pit stop in Barcelona, Spain, Rob and Kim left at 11:09p
The clue is to go to the Sagrada Familla to find their next clue
It’s been under construction for the last 124 years; they do not know that this is the building they want. They asked the locals, found out the name and then took a cab there.
Having arrived second, Lyn and Karlyn left at 11:24p. They asked two boys for directions to the church. Funny how people were still up and about at that time of the night.
Rob and Kim could not find the clue as usual.
At 11:53p James and Tyler left and saw three girls and asked for directions.
Then Rob and Kim found the clue finally.
As Phil explained the next leg of the trip, they showed a Boeing 777 from behind flying; nice shot! It could have been an Air France aircraft or a Continental aircraft. The clue is to fly to Paris, France to the Eiffel Tower for their next clue.
They then got a cab and went to the airport. I’m sure they have to wait until the net morning to get a flight, since it was so late.
Then James and Tyler got to the airport. They got to the airport at 1a and the desk opened at 4a. So they all had to wait
James and Tyler argued about checking for an Internet café and one said why bother, then settled down on the floor to sleep with the others.
Now Bama finally found the clue box and hailed a cab for the airport.
They looked at the boards and saw a few flight choices.
Vueling.com at 6a to Paris
Iberia at 7:25a to Paris
As the windows opened they all tried to buy tickets, but there were only three seats left on that first flight and Rob and Kim got the first two.
One seat left for the 6a and Tyler and James were next, but they needed two seats of course, so they have to get a different flight. The lady told them to go to Air France in Terminal A. Odd as I thought that would be where they would have gone first; geez…
So Bama started to walk over to Iberia, while Rob and Kim got on the first flight with 1:05 minutes lead.
Bama got the 7:25a flight to Paris’ arriving at their second airport, Orly at 9:05a using Iberia; can’t find that flight in my schedules… The girls did ask which one is closer to the Eiffel Tower and the agent said Orly, which is true.
James and Tyler argued about the fact that they could have done something last night as opposed to just sleep and wait for the ticket office to open; oh well, hindsight is 20/20.
Then they got on the 7:05a arriving at 9:00a into Charles De Gaulle on Air France.
Rob and Kim were shown boarding a Vueling.com’s Airbus A320, they then showed them settling in inside the interior of the plane.
As they showed Flight 1 at 6:00 a.m., an American Airlines Boeing 757-200 was shown taking off! Holy cow, what happened to the Vueling.com Airbus A320 they just boarded?
Next they showed the two boys getting on an Air France Airbus aircraft as Flight 2 at 7:05a and showed an A318 taking off, but the scheduled flight is actually an A321. There was also a British Airways Airbus A319 landing as well.
They then showed Bama heading out to a parked Iberia Airbus A319 on a bus on their way to Orly. Then showed them settling in onboard as then as Flight 3 at 7:25a.
So Phil says all three teams are now on their way to Paris, France and once they land, they have to make their way to the third floor of the Eiffel Tower where they will find their next clue, and they showed an Air France Boeing 747-400 landing; nice, but could they at least show one of the types they took off with?
When he mentioned Flight 1 arriving at Paris Charles de Gaulle, they showed an MD-80 landing. Then showed Rob and Kim taking the RER B into the city as it was faster than taking a cab and less costly as well.
For Flight 2, they showed an Air France Boeing 777 taxiing at Charles de Gaulle airport; then they showed Tyler and James asking airport employees for the faster way to the city. They agree that the train is the way to go, but there was a long line to get tickets, which is usually the case at De Gaulle depending on when you arrive; especially early morning.
Next they showed what I think is an Iberia Airbus A320 landing at Orly, then showed the two girls walking down the jet way and getting a cab into the city.
Lyn and Karlyn arrived first
Followed by Ron and Kim
The new clue is to take the train from the St. Lazare station to Caen airport for the next clue.
Finally Tyler and James arrived and got the last clue and headed for St. Lazare
Ron and Kim took the Metro after asking directions while Lyn Karlyn took a taxi.
So did James and Tyler as they were really running behind now.
The train to Caen was at12:25p.
Ron caught up with Bama and now they are all on the same train to Caen
In Caen they all took a cab to the airport for the next clue.
Road block: fly to 13,000’ and one team member do a tandem skydive and then a surprise aerial nose dive to Omaha beach. Then be taken by jeep to meet their partner
James and Tyler were first; Tyler will jump.
Then Bama
Then Rob and Kim arrived crashing into the clue box
So Rob is bummed as he wanted to do the skydive, but it is Kim’s turn
So is Kim as she wanted him to get that opportunity.
All teams suited up and headed aloft for the task.
James and Tyler’s team were first
Then Bama (Karlyn jumping)
Then Rob and Kim (Kim jumped)
Once on the ground, they went to the train station to meet their partner
Jams and Tyler were first to reach the ground; the new clue is to head by train back to Paris for 163 miles, to Place de la Concorde for the next clue
James and Tyler at 5:33p arriving at 7:37p
Then Bama
Then Rob and Kim
Now they are all on the same train
Rob and Kim had to change money at the post office into Euro so they went to the post office 10 minutes away as they had time; will they miss the train?
A train showed up and they (Bama and the boys) took a train at 5:10p
When Rob and Kim showed up they wondered where they all went
So then the 5:23p train showed up. Did the others take the wrong train?
So there were two trains and now they are caught up at the connecting station arriving in Paris at the same time
In Paris, finding a taxi was a chore as usual
Bama first
Rob and Kim second
As Tyler and James waited
Finally they got one
Bama arrived first
But Rob and Kim found the clue first.
Art – pickup a painting and take it to an artist
Fashion – create a jacket at a fashion school
Rob and Kim asked for direction to the fashion place
Bama showed the fashion as well
Then James and Tyler arrived.
Now all three are doing the fashion assignment
Bama was the last to arrive.
Finally James and Tyler finished and got the clue.
The clue is to fly to New York, NY and go to find the giant globe in a building for their next clue. New York would be the last stop.
They showed from underneath, a Boeing 747 taking off when they talked about NY,
I think it belonged to Air France.
Then Bama got it completed
Rob and Kim were last.
So Bama went to Orly in error; NO!!! I shouted. They thought that the other teams have no idea about Orly, so they may have an advantage; WRONG!
Then Ron and Kim are on the way to Charles de Gaulle and are arguing as usual
They, the boys arrived at Terminal 2C
The first flight is at 8:25a no seats in Economy though; they went on the waiting list, but did buy a ticket on Continental at 9:55a arriving into Newark at 11:55a.

Amaxing Race 10 - Episode 12
Aired Sunday, December 3, 2006
I was out of town, so I missed the episode on Sunday; I tell you Sunday is a really bad day for this show…Luckily two of my friends religiously tape it, so I asked one of them to send it my way. Unfortunately, I missed one of them on his way out of the airport on Monday when I returned. They both uploaded it to my web site so I could watch it. Here goes…
In the review for the show, an Air France A318 was shown taking off from an airport when Phil mentioned the previous week’s Ukraine to Morocco trip. This was the same footage from last week’s show.
They started by showing a quick recap of last week’s show; at that point they had an icon on the screen promoting the finale on Dec. 10. go to http://www.aol.com/amazingrace, it said. I checked it stupidly, so now I know who got eliminated, but you won’t know until I am done…
First to depart were Tyler and James at 5:30a; the sun was already up so it must have been during the Summertime.
The new task is to drive 275 miles through the Atlas Mountains to Casablanca, Morocco where they have to go to a market to find the next clue.
The plan they echoed was: knock the Blonds out
Next it was Lyn and Karlyn (Bama) who left at 5:31a who also have a plan to get rid of the Blonds.
Next with $295 for this leg (just like the others), Rob and Kim departed at 5:47a. Surprisingly they were not arguing, but it is early yet.
Dustin and Kandice (the Blonds) left last at 6:16a. worrying about the 30 minute penalty that may meet them.
Tyler and James stopped and asked for directions, so did Lyn and Karlyn and Rob jumped out at the light to ask for directions.
The Blonds stopped and picked up a guy who took them there.
James and Tyler arrived first and got their clue.
It is a Road Block: Get in touch with their inner chef; good Lord they have to eat something again?
Get a pound of camel meat, cook it and then eat it. At least it is cooked this time.
James did the eating.
Then the Blonds arrived while Lyn and Karlyn stopped and asked a cab driver whom they then followed. The Blonds were next to find the clue and they found a kid to show them the way. Meanwhile Rob was still asking for directions. The Blonds then showed up and started cooking.
A few minutes after, James finished eating and got the next clue, which was to fly to Barcelona, Spain (BCN). They then showed what looked like an A321 from Air France taking off and then another Airbus aircraft flying; the scene was of the left engine seen outside of an aircraft window.
Iberia, Royal Air Maroc have nonstop service, while Air France has service over Lyon and Paris, France. Alitalia also has service over Milan and Rome, Italy.
The girls continued to cook.
Rob and Kim were still looking for the parking place.
As James and Tyler left, they ran over the parking cones. Rob and Kim were of course lost once more. If they win this race, it will be a miracle and the other teams in the race must have gotten lost as well.
Lyn and Karlyn just arrived and started looking for the place.
Rob and Kim argued while trying to find the place.
Next Dustin and Kandice were done and left. Stupidly Rob and Kim followed the Blonds thinking they had just arrived.
Lyn and Karlyn had no luck either.
Finally Rob sees the clue box and dashes over followed by Lyn and Karlyn.
Kim decided to do the Road Block
James and Tyler were the first to get to the airport and were told to make their way to the Royal Air Maroc ticket counter
Lyn and Karlyn (arguing) finished eating before Rob and Kim, so they headed for the airport.
Then the Blonds arrived at the airport and asked Tyler and James if they would let them arrive at the mat first; of course they said no and rightly so, the audacity.
The boys got their tickets first, followed by the Blonds, then Lyn and Karlyn showed up followed by Rob and Kim. All on AT962 codesharing with Iberia as IB7962 departing at 16:30 (4:30p).
They then showed passengers boarding (by stairs) a Royal Air Maroc (AT) Boeing 737-400 and then showed an Air France (AF) Boeing 777 taking off as Phil narrated the next leg of the journey. Good grief; this was the same aircraft they had shown before and I though it was an Airbus aircraft; but I saw the three truck wheels on the landing gear and recognized it as a Boeing 777.
In Barcelona, they showed an Iberia Airbus A319 landing. As they got out of the terminal, everyone bolted for the taxi stand.
So despite all the rush, they arrived after the closing time of 7:30p, so they had to wait until the opening time at 10:00a the next morning; I swear the producers plan this perfectly…
In the morning just before opening, the Blonds asked two construction workers who were just outside of the maze, to order a cab for them for 10:05a.
Bama were still arguing from the night before and mentioned that maybe they should get a cab as well, but did nothing about it, while Kim ordered two cabs for themselves plus Rob and Tyler.
Rob and Tyler found the clue first after they all pretty much collided while trying to find the clue, then Rob and Kim found the clue.
The next task is a Detour: Lug it – travel by taxi to Los Ramblos then put on a giant costume then walk back to a square and find a giant lady.
Or Lob it - Take a taxi to partake in the tomato fight, where they will find a clue.
Lyn and Karlyn were last to find the clue, but first to get out of the park as they walked another way to get out; smart.
There was a little taxi confusion as there were only enough cabs for the Blonds and Ron and Kim.
Lyn and Karlyn and James and Tyler had a hard time getting a cab; not sure why they did not just ask the guys who were standing around to call one for them?
Soon Lyn and Karlyn hailed a cab successfully.
Rob and Kim arrived at the tomatoes and while they started to look for the clue, the locals threw tomatoes at them, which is the objective of the task. Kim wanted to leave, but Rob wanted to stay, as he pummeled the people throwing the tomatoes. So Kim stormed off and started shouting at Rob, but continued searching reluctantly.
Meanwhile the Blonds found the giant statues and donned them.
Kim continued to cry and quit once more and stormed off; so Rob, annoyed left with her.
So they argued and then returned to the tomatoes as the alternate task was 20 km away and they would waste too much time trying to get there. In what seemed like a few minutes they found the clue after being pelted some more with tomatoes by the locals.
Rob did try to keep her calm as he dug.
The clue read that they had to travel across town to the Palau Nacional of Mont Juic for the next pit stop; the last team may be eliminated. Now they are on their way to the pit stop
Next Lyn and Karlyn arrived and got immediately pelted
Tyler and James arrived at giants and donned their costumes.
They met up with the Blonds and got directions.
Lyn and Karlyn argued about whether to go to the alternate task or not.
The Blonds and the guys kept asking directions as they go.
Now Lyn and Karlyn found the clue and bolted.
Meanwhile Rob and Kim arrived at the pit stop first and won a place into the final three and for the leg won a trip for two to Barbados.
Rob broke down on the mat and says he wants to marry Kim
The Blonds found the tall girl first followed by the boys. Now the race is on to see who gets on the mat first as three teams are in taxis and on their way to the pit stop.
It looked like Rob and Tyler arrived first at the park and then the Blonds, then they looked around to find the mat where Phil is located.
Then Lyn and Karlyn arrived and were the second team to arrive on the mat being the first all female team to make it to the final.
Now the race is on to see if the Blonds are last.
But Tyler and James beat them to it, so the Blonds are out! Mission accomplished for all three teams as they all wanted to beat Dustin and Kandice.
So let’s see how next week goes with these three teams; they are all confident that they will each win, as they should be, but we know that only one team will win.
I am seeing NY taxis in the preview of next week’s show, so it looks like they will be in NY next week. Also, I saw the emblem of the Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport in one of the scenes, so I can assume they go from Barcelona to Paris to New York, but can’t figure out where they end up as it is in an outdoor park somewhere.
I was out of town, so I missed the episode on Sunday; I tell you Sunday is a really bad day for this show…Luckily two of my friends religiously tape it, so I asked one of them to send it my way.
