The notes app is either on the home screen or boxed in the utilities square. Open it, press "+" and type away. :nut: The iPhone 3G still works like a charm for me; no upgrades until otherwise.

So I thought to myself 'Self? Why is it the winners of legs in Miami are generally great and the best teams out of their respective F3 but the legs themselves are awful?' And then I tried to fix it yay!

...then I realized that Miami is kind of an amalgam of cultures but not *known* for it like, say, New York or even LA (which was my first attempt lol). Still:


* Buenos Aires (Ministro Pastirini International Airport) to Miami, Florida, USA
* Miami (Virginia Key Beach)
* Miami (Miami Seaquarium) ROADBLOCK (Who wants to take an unforgettable date?)
* Miami (Versailles Restaurant)
* Miami (University of Miami - Phillip and Patricia School of Music)
* Miami Beach (Miami Beach Convention Center) ROADBLOCK (Who hasn't been worn out by the race?)
* Miami (The Barnacle Historic State Park) FINISH LINE
In the first Roadblock of the leg, one team member would 'date' one of the dolphins of the Seaquarium. First, they had to prepare 20 lbs of fish and feed their chosen dolphin. Once fed, the racer would interact with the dolphin, including basic training cues, being dragged by the dolphin and ending in a kiss. Once finished, the team received their next clue however the person performing the task was instructed to leave the wetsuit on for the rest of the leg. The second Roadblock required the team that sat out of the dolphin task to search through a room of hundreds of models for the 12 wearing outfits they encountered along the 12 legs of the race, including their partner wearing the wetsuit of the Seaquarium. Once assembled in chronological order, they would receive their next clue.

Additional tasks

* At Virginia Key, teams were simply told to 'Find Lolita'. They had to figure out that Lolita was the name of a killer whale at the nearby Seaquarium.
* At Versailles, teams were required to eat a sampling of Cuban cuisine, including Cuban sandwiches, croquetas, and cortaditos, in order to receive their next clue.
* At the University of Miami, teams were directed to one of three practice rooms which had a CD playing seven instruments - a bass guitar, a snare drum, a trombone, maracas, a steel pan, a flute, and a conga drum. When teams feel they've listened enough, they had to go to a performance room and match the instruments playing on the CD to the instruments being played by one of the musicians of the band. If correct, teams would receive their next clue but if not, they would have to listen again to the CD before guessing again.
* After completing the second Roadblock, teams were instructed to find the Finish Line at a barnacle growing for 124 years. They had to figure out that this referred to The Barnacle Historic State Park, built in 1891.
It's not like OMG AMAZING and I'm fairly certain the distances are ridiculously far apart unless they're driving themselves but it's better than transliteration or wading through water *shrugs*

Zach what did you use to create your route because notes is just  (:;)

I just did everything in my browser; I bookmarked the places in Miami I wanted to visit and just wrote the post in-thread when I was ready. For DC I would use Word to make it look beautiful but I'm (hopefully) not being judged here  :funny:
