Don’t forget in TAR 6 in Hungary, teams used an Internet cafe for the first time to retrieve their next route marker. It was also the midpoint of the first ever uberleg/double length leg.

Ooh yes, how could I forget. There were so many times after that season when teams went to internet cafes around the world to search up flight options on their own discretion. It kind of died out altogether a few years later though.

My favourite team is Charla and Mirna,this is because I loved Mirna’s bossiness and how she snags great flights and tells the other teams off and telling the tickets agent not to sell them tickets. I also loved Charla for her competitive sprit

I have always cherished Mirna's skill of inveigling ticket agents. Her rigor, willingness to spend time with people from different countries (rather than just asking for directions), and knack for a laugh makes her my all-time favorite racer! Pair it with Charla's no-quit attitude toward any task and they are by far my most favorite team to grace television. No other team can meet their mark in this day and age. Closest it's gotten to surpassing them was Brook & Claire, and that was eight years ago.
It's sad how nowadays we barely see teams interact at or en route to the airport unless it's an important piece of CBS web "extra", because those were truthfully the host of intense make-or-break moments. Gone are the days air travel could still kick teams off a flight or refuse to sell tickets (Eric & Danielle and Colin & Christie hahaha), the heavenly standby list, alternative options, and being crafty to overdraft plane tickets.

Charla & Mirna are one of my all-time hated teams.
