I will be live blogging the major events as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news. As always, the real party is in the comments area -- I hope to see you there!
We're into the final four this week. Although the TV listing isn't saying it as such, I think tonight's episode is the penultimate one for the season. Tonight, the four should be knocked down to three and we know it's three teams going to the finale. The episode for December 7 is entitled 'The Only Leg That Matters.' I say finale even though it's just an hour and isn't labeled as such!
The Wonderful Lifeguard SueGee has updated the blog pool listing. Here's where we stand:
Race fans ready? Let's GO!
Recap City, here we are. Luis and Michelle win first place, Marcus and Michael get Philiminated. Teams are flying to the Republic of Iceland. We get Expedia exposure as teams get helicopter rides to their clue. It does look stunning!
Ten percent of Iceland is covered in glaciers. Teams must climb a glacier ice wall, one at a time, to retrieve a flag. Aubrey and Luis go first for their teams. Luis is down, so Michelle is going up. Now David is heading up.
Luis/Michelle off to the next clue first but just about even. Now Derek and Molly are climbing. Molly is better at it than Derek. Emily and Claire climbing. Claire down first. Emily and Molly in last place but so close. T
The teams have to drive stick shift vehicles to the next clue. Emily and Molly are still last but not all that far behind. Derek, like Luis before him, is having trouble driving the car. David/Aubrey are just ahead of Luis/Michelle with Derek/Claire in third.
The first two teams turned around and pass Derek/Claire going the other way. The first two thought they drove by the turn off. Molly/Emily in a car and having manual transmission problems. Of course.
Derek/Claire to Roadblock first. Who's feeling Misty-Eyed ... Derek does it. It has diving, rappelling down falls into a cave to get a clue and more involved. David does not swim, and Luis passes by him. Will Molly catch up? Hmm.
Derek and Claire headed to the next clue. Then Luis/Michelle. David makes it through, so the twins are still in last place.
Expedia Experience, they have to memorize volcano names and eruption years while snorkeling a fissure. The order remains but all four teams are quite close. Teams do go with a dive instructor.
It's ice-cold water in Iceland. All four teams are there at the same time although Luis/Michelle and Derek/Claire have a head start. Luis/Michelle have to go back and try again. Derek/Claire are good and move on into first place! They are on the way to the Pit Stop.
Luis/Michelle pass. Aubrey/David do not pass, neither do the twins. David is having extreme problems. The twins pass while he's still struggling. Now Aubrey/David are wrong again. They give up and take the two-hour penalty.

No one commenting. Sigh. There are lurker hits on the blog.

I'm here, I just forgot to push enter. LOL
Ah, Glenn and Penny are here.
Not sure who I want to be Philiminated this week - so close to the end!
Oh no. They've come this far. Wow.
Any of the teams would have been good. I'm happy with the final 3. I feel sorry for the last team though.
See everyone next week for the finale!!!
