The Amazing Race 25: December 5 Blog Party


Wow, time is flying this season! We're down to the final four. As the show airs here, I'll do my best to update this entry with the major happenings. My mind is still on the fuzzy side, but I'll do my best. Refresh the page to get the latest. As always, the real party is in the comments area. Come join us there!

Here's the latest blog pool standings from the Magnificent Margo:

Adam & Bethany - chrob61, Kathy in Brooklyn, Kelsey NY, Zoetawny
Brooke & Robbie - Caela, Sharon, Sharon N, Willie J
Maya & Amy - Ed in OH, Karen in CA, Lynn1, Margo
Misti & Jim - Cheryl in NC, Laurie, ML, OrkMommy

Sorry you have been PHILIMINATED
Lisa & Michelle - Becky, Delee, dla, Donna in AL
Dennis & Isabelle - Auntie Leigh, Brian, David, Donna NY, sanra
Michael & Scott - Donna in FL, Glenn, Jackie, Marlo
Keith & Whitney - Jean, Jennasmom, Nana in NW, PDXGranny
Shelly & Nici - Buzzmaam, Merrilee, Rbennie, SueGee
Tim & Te Jay - Babs, Brent McKee, Dusty, Monty924
Kym & Alli - Brenda, meb, Nicklepeed, Rochelle, Terry in TX

Since there are two more episodes after tonight to air, I predict a non-Philimination leg. What do you think?

Are you ready? Let's GO!

Teams are flying from Singapore to Manilla, the Philippines.

Ah, good. The dentists are on a different flight, getting in a little later than the others. That might not mean much as they could catch up, but ...!

It won't mean much. They all have to wait for a flower vendor at 6:30am.

Detour - Catch or Coach. Filling three buckets of fish or mounting a sidecar to a bike. Maya and Amy are behind because they didn't follow a clue and lost time. Robbie is freaking out about handling fish.

Brooke and Robbie, the only ones doing the fish, finish first and head off for the next clue. Then Bethany and Adam finish the bike first.

Yay! It's the "I broke my ox" challenge. They have to use a water oxen to find a clue in a huge mud field.

Jim and Misti find the clue in the mud first, then the scientists. It's off to the Pit Stop on foot.

1. Jim and Misti - won a trip to Vietnam
2. Maya and Amy

The wrestlers and surfers were almost simultaneous in finding the clue.

3. Bethany and Adam
4. Brooke and Robbie.

I was right. It was a non-Philimination. All teams still in.

  6. Hey, Penny! I agree with you.

  7. Becky - The two hour Survivor the other night about killed me. But, other than that, eh. It dawned on me that I did have a concussion back when I was 9. Maybe that's why this one is messing me up so much.

    ReplyDelete
  8. I've softened to the Dentists, but the "husband" still irks me. I like her.

    ReplyDelete
  9. I happy that Bethany and Adam are thinking about this more on this leg.

  11. I love the #SweetScientists

  12. Hi everyone =)

    2 more shows after tonight? Your probably right Jackie, a non-Philimination leg. I seem to remember the finale show being 2 hours long when first started. I know it was only a hour show last year. If this is not a non-elimination leg then they will split the final leg into two parts.

  13. Hi Lynn and David. I've missed a bunch of blog parties for TAR myself.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I think that is so unfair sometimes. It puts every one on equal grounds again. Early bird gets the worm!!!

    I do not want the Wrestlers in first. Don't like them.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I like the excitement of the scientists. If Adam and Bethany don't win, I'd love them to win!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Jackie, I was knocked off Wed before I could tell you thank you for hosting. So I want to thank you now for hosting us then and tonight.

    I am not as much against the dentists as I did.

    ReplyDelete
  17. After how wicked that massage was last time, the Scientist need something better for them. That looked so excruciating. And, then the workers laughed. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  18. The poverty there is horrible. It makes you want to cry.

    Yeah, the dentists are softening.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Penny, sorry, but I would have laughed at them getting the "massage" myself if I was there. I did laugh at them from here. =)

    Hi Kathy =)

    ReplyDelete
  20. At least they caught on before they got an hour penalty.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Why would they do that challenge? The water looks filthy. Yuck.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Hi Kathy. That is a nasty challenge for someone who can't handle smells. I would have done the other one too.

    ReplyDelete
  23. What did he expect? They are FISH!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Yes, the water does look gross. Who knows what died in it. Yuck.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Yikes. That storm looks horrible.

    ReplyDelete
  26. The wrestlers are going to come out on top of this.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Shut, didn't want them first. Rats

    ReplyDelete
  28. Hi all. Just looking at that body of water would completely turn me off from that challenge.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I meant...Shoot, I do not want them first....wrestlers....NOOOO

    ReplyDelete
  30. The Dentists still have the save, don't they?

    ReplyDelete
  31. If the scientist bebat the dentists at this challenge he will have a fit

    ReplyDelete
  32. I think Phil said that they could not use the save anymore at the end of the last show. Something about he was going to take it home as a memento.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Mr. Dentist is such a know it all. Mrs. Dentist has seemed much more likeable lately.

    ReplyDelete
  34. OMGosh, this is filthy and hard. Yuck.

    ReplyDelete
  35. And they have to walk in that. How funny. I wonder what kind of parasits they all got.

    ReplyDelete
  36. They have such a good attitude. But, yuck again.

    ReplyDelete
  37. The movie about Betheny's experience was really good. She appeared at the end of it. Has anyone seen it?

    ReplyDelete
  38. Kathy, I have not seen it. PENNY, check your mail.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I haven't Kathy

    I want to see some of that ox mud on those dentists pearly whites. =)

    ReplyDelete
  40. I haven't seen the movie, Kathy. But I certainly remember when it happened to her!

    ReplyDelete
  41. I think I would rather eat bugs than work in all that mud and poop

    ReplyDelete
  42. Same here, Kathy. I'll have to look for it. I remember her story when that happened. I think she's amazing.

    ReplyDelete
  43. And the Dentists find it first, LOL. Go figure

    ReplyDelete
  44. Monty, I feel the same way about her. Ever since I watched that movie and learned about her determination to surf again she is awe inspiring.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I have seen the movie, Kathy. She was very lucky to be alive.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Got the mail Becky.

    OMGosh, don't let the Surfers be last. Please......
