Thank you to everyone who replied!Everyone is so respectful of others here and that's lovely to see!Ooh Coutzy do you have some inside knowledge?lol perhaps following them around
Sydney gave you a different outlook?;)

Indeed it did. They spent some time bickering while the cameras weren't rolling. Vyxsin was asking Kynt not to yell at her so much, while Kynt was sure he'd only yelled once, in encouragement.

Yay! :jumpy: Love those guys!


So do I!!!They're my absolute favourites!On
a side note, I really hope Kesha and Jen learned
how
to swim o.O

Given the fact that they are still in the race after a task at the Aquarium in Manly (which probably had something to do with water..), I would say they might have.

I thought it was just Jen which didn't know how to or was afraid of water - mind you I hope so to after we saw them in lone of the pictures in wetsuits
So if you care to find me, Look to the western sky!

I think they were both afraid of water; the younger 1 just showed it more.

I think the younger one was more afraid of water but neither could swim very well.It's sad I know
but I played on repeat the part where one dives into the water and the other says "Mama still ain't name
her Grace." It was one of my favourite moments from that season.

It seems we lost contact with Japanese?!
 
I am a TAR fan in Guangzhou, China. 
And there are numbers of fans in Mainland China.
If they come to China, maybe we can do all this things as many as possible.

Kent and Vyxsin scored points with a lot of the fan base for their treatment of the fans after their season was filmed and their elimination that season was broadcast.  (Not the first team to do that either -- the Guidos are the best example.) And I think several of these teams are showing signs of having benefited from their prior Racing experience.

As to Jaime, I'm going to guess that her decision to appear in a certain magazine wasn't very popular. Otherwise, I'm not really sure. I thought they were capable of winning the Race the first time around, and I would view them as a definite contender this time out.

I believe it was her treatment of the cab drivers and her decision in the final leg to call 911 dispatch because the driver didn't know where the place was they were going.

I agree and just generally she seemed quite rude.

Could you imagine being that close to winning the race and getting in a cab on the LAST leg and getting a cab driver that didnt know where he was GOING??? Oh my Gosh, THEN for him to stop to get GAS!  :meow: :meow:
Oh what would you have done? I would have had to have my partner in the race PULL ME OFF OF HIM! LOL....
I would have called Any one at that close to the end! 911, 411, 1-800- wheretheheck are we? I would have gone nuts! LOL :knuckles:

So....with a lack of sightings in Japan, is it possible they are NOT in Tokyo afterall but in a different country??

EDIT: I realize that a flight from Sydney to Tokyo is rather long, especially if there is a connection in Hong Kong and if the flight was delayed. which could have explained the lack of sightings since they must have been in the air the whole time! just now read the sightings at a Japanese shrine, so I guess Tokyo is indeed confirmed which is kinda disappointing since we just saw Japan recently. so that means Globetrotters (back in Tokyo) and Asian team back in Japan

I'm wondering if they're getting their first real pit stop, that's more than the usual 12-hours, and getting a chance for a Thanksgiving meal. Didn't this come up with TAR 11? Does anyone remember anything one way or the other?
