When we left the race last week we got the surprise of a non-elimination

So now in Mexico we still have all the teams racing

I hope I do a better job of reporting the race this time.

And the girl member of the last team to arrive last week is carrying a hair dryer and curling iron with her!

Yes, I know use exclamations, but really they are in a race!

Fly to Columbia, Cartagena.

This is the first time the RACE has been there.

Note, these are *ALL* media people in all the teams. They are very use to being connected, and now they don't even have phones with them.

Enter a mud volcano and search for an emerald.


Then swim out in a lagoon to get the next clue box, also washes the mud off at the same time.

Meanwhile, the team with the self-professed smart guys arrive last at the airport.

I think it was worse than that. It wasn't that they were last at the airport, it's that once they got there they didn't go buy tickets right away, unlike the other teams. They blamed this on their lack of competitiveness (or something along those lines) but I don't know what else they would do at the airport. Getting tickets seems like a basic first step.

Did you know "race" is said "el raceo" in Spanish - Americans!

And another race member does not want to wear a throng swim suit in front of her father! So why did she pack a throng?

I agree. This is the same woman who packed the hair dryer, but then didn't pack a bathing suit. She seems fairly unprepared for the race.

Set up a tent on the beach, avoid the crabs if you see any.

You have to match the example tent so it looks easy but you have to note the details. Like how deep you plant the sticks into the sand.

The cooking challenge instead of the tent requires you to de-scale, gut and fry a fish, and prepare the extras to make up a dinner.

The speed-bump require the team to help some fishermen to pull in to shore a net full of fish and collect the fish.

One girl had a problem cleaning the fish because she had problem as a little girl with a fish in her swimsuit so she never liked fish since.

One team built their tent in the wrong area and have to take it down and move it.

First team to pit-stop win a trip to St. Thomas.

The smart guy team got to second to last place only to drive pass the clue, and go to the beach with clue envelope.

PS. Don't drop the fish you are cooking.

PSS. Watch out for pigeons while running to the pit-stop.

OMG!!!!!

I can't believe the last two teams!

One team took it's taxi to the beach, the other team left their taxi in town and ran to the beach.

Also one team are the worse cooks I have ever seen doing fish!

So while one team gets into it's taxi and races to the pit-stop, the other teams in running on foot to the town to get their taxi to then race to the pit-stop!
