I say it's in the morning because she's wearing some gloves. She's sensitive to morning cold.

Can you guys access the Pullman Bus schedule? I seem to need a password to get in. They've missed the morning Turbus if it's 7.20am.

I presume it's the morning of the 30th, which gives them a full day of travelling and maybe an overnight bunch, for Leg Two to end on the afternoon of the 1st? Fits the timing for a 12h Pit Stop in Valparaiso, considering all teams came in before Dana/Adrian were eliminated at 7.30pm the previous day.

looks like Joe and Hedi make enemies 

On the contrary, it's really ALL the teams versus Louie & Mike. I'd say Louie & Mike are the ones making enemies.

Huh, how do you work that out! When Louie and Mike say 'you can't get away with this' Steve is also there and he doesn't look happy at Joe either. All the teams are angry at Joe and Heidi for allowing Brandy and Carol to skip ahead in the line!

If you look closely they let Monique and Shawne also skip ahead.

Maybe Joe & Heidi just wanted to let all-female teams go first.

 The sign makes sense, graytex    I fully expect the racers to travel from Valporaiso to  Santiago via Terminal Alameda.  Kinda looks like the interior of Terminal Alameda (similar phones outside, similar glass doors, signs, even a Pullman Bus sign inside in the same location)..  hmmmmm....

    CHILE GETS CHILLY AS RACERS SLING INSULTS, FORM ALLIANCES AND FACE FICKLE LIVESTOCK ON "THE AMAZING RACE," SUNDAY, FEB. 21 ON THE CBS TELEVISION NETWORK

"When the Cow Kicked Me in the Head" (Chile) - A Roadblock turns into a recipe for pain when one Racer encounters a moody cow, and things turn sour when a newly formed alliance rubs teams the wrong way on THE AMAZING RACE, Sunday, Feb. 21 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.  Phil Keoghan is host.

Two animal tasks in one episode? Nice

[AmazingDT]

Wow i  bet with the first quarter, there will be a lot of drama from buying bus tickets

[apskip]

Pure logic suggests that with a circa 3pm pit stop the most logical departure time for teams to get to Santiago is around 3am. The time to reach the Santiago southward bus terminal should not be more than 1 to 2 hours, much of that waiting for a cab or bus. That indicates to me that a 7am departure time from Santiago south is absolutely feasible.

[chill_sd]

I think the Pit Stop times are closer to 6pm.  But that still makes the 7:20 on the bus terminal clock logically AM rather than PM.

Looks like Monique takes quite a kick from that cow.

[AmazingDT]

it looks like Caite and Brent chose the swimming detour

[Slowhatch]

I've found a similar floor pattern here and this Chilean bus blog (near the bottom of the page). It's the bus station in Temuco, although I wouldn't call the evidence conclusive.

[georgiapeach]

I thought the swimming was the tail end of the condor paraglide into the lake?? Or is that supposed to be the next week?

It is. In fact, that looks like the water taxi parked next to the platform (in the condor cap, I mean). Detour: Condor or Llama. Roadblock: Who wants to kicked in the head by a cow?

[JGR]

Looks like Monique takes quite a kick from that cow.

Ow!

Jordan looks sad.  I hope they don't come in last this leg!!
