At each Detour only 3 work stations are available, first come, first served.
Only Tyler & James originally choose Throw it, until they read the addition info that tells them that throwing pottery is actually making pottery. They make this change before leaving the Cafe Pirgola.

3. Rob & Kimberly 5:47 pm
4. Dustin & Kandice - 6:16 pm - Who are marked for elimination. If they don’t arrive at the Pit Stop first, they will be penalized 30 minutes before being able to check in.
This will be updated next Sunday with Check in Times. But I would be very surprised if its much more then 20-30 minutes.
Team Reports and Score Card will be up for this leg maybe by tonight, but most likely tomorrow. I will not start working on those sections for legs 9 & 10.
I will also be updating the Navigation for legs 1-11.
And due to the unheard of use of Ferns and cabs in Navigating (which frankly boggles my mind), I will also be breaking down these teams on when they use ferns in their car to navigate, when they use Fern’s who drive in cars to lead them instead of navigating, when they pay cabs to lead them instead of navigating and when they follow teams instead of navigating (and indicating if they have permission or don’t have permission to follow).
That should be done no later then tomorrow.
The sad thing is this season (like season 5) has had less driving then many other seasons especially seasons 1, 4, and 9.
