But we don't have an actual picture of the grandmother's face, right?

Wasn't that supposedly the last team to arrive at the counter according to someone (maybe Chateau?)

Nope, but also check the pink in the pit stop photo, you can make it out on the pack, the pink thingy and the pink thingy on the airport photo, on the backpack.

And to add, compare the little dinky thing on the top of the packs, they are in both pictures!  :yess:

Oh goodness, I am so slow these days! Always one post behind, my pic also backs up YY's statement!

Yes, I understand that the girl directly looking at the camera is the same as the one at the counter and at the check-in mat. The blue thing and her water bottle support that.

I just want to double check that we don't have any pictures of the grandmother.

Well should we check International Flights from Puerto Vartas, it's a shot in the dark! I suppose we just wait until we get information next!

Excellent work!  But what if the author of that article was deceived somehow & that was NOT the eliminated couple.  It could just be the typical interview at the mat. 

Maybe it's only wishful thinking on my part because I sorta wanted the granny & granddaughter to go a little further in the race.

Noone knows for sure I guess, we can only go off of what was written, no? And I understand what you mean in the last part, the wishful thinking, would happen with anyone that had a team that they wanted to go far.

Amazing picture!! But one quick question, how does production let someone get that close to actually take it?

Totally irrelevant, and I hope it's in the correct thread, but just something I thought you guys might be interested in:

I was just watching the show Lie To Me, where they use facial expressions to see what emotion you're feeling. Sometimes, they show pictures of celebrities to compare with their cases. They were investigating a girl with a scared look on her face, and guess which 'celebrity's' picture pops up: Miss Teen South Carolina! :funny:

Totally irrelevant, I know, but I found it kind of interesting... :colors

This looks as good a place as any to put something that is equally as irrelevant but amusing. I went to the website where the pictures from Puerto Varas came from and looked through the directory they came from, http://www.cronicalibre.cl/images/stories/thumbs/. It's basically a few thousand thumbnail news photos from all of 2009. I spent the time to look at each photo from December 2009 (the last 3 days) just in case they had any others involving TAR 16 hidden there. No such luck unfortunately.  :(  However, as I was wading through a hundred or so pictures of politicians, local sporting events and concerts, this popped up and I thought I'd share it. I don't think it's Flight Time (and definitely not Big Easy), but it made me laugh anyway to find this in a news site from Southern Chile.  :lol:

Phil looks like he's smiling more than frowning in the photo. Possibly just avoiding elimination? *wishful thinking...*

I've tried to keep up with all the posts...hope this hasn't been mentioned.  I found a news article with a picture of the grandmother and granddaughter at the mat.  Here is the translation:  

Moreover, and as yesterday showed the photograph to reveal the couple eliminated from competition, a lady of about 70 years with a young woman, after the tests were conducted in the lake district of Puerto Varas.

That would seem to confirm grandmother, not grandfather.

Okay, so THAT's where it says they are the eliminated couple. The first link was only a link to the picture, which wasn't enough evidence of an elimination.

But you guys could have answered my question sooner. :lol:

Maybe the TAR Production have found out that they would not pay for decoys anymore but instead, use decoy boots?, maybe the granny/granddaughter are just decoy boots? and they are not the actual boots.
