This recap took a long time to write and is very long, i hope you like it and if you have any advice or comments just post! Grin

Thanks

Another episode of the race has gone by again, and another leg has been completed. Who was eliminated? and who made it to the top?

Teams arrived at Botswana at the end of the last leg for a mandatory rest period. Despite their first place finish, will Ron and Kelly's relationship be able to withstand the challenges ahead and will Brian and Greg remain in last place or will their determination bring them to the front of the pack?

Ron&Kelly-1st to depart and 5:29AM

"Teams are told to drive themselves 14 miles past the city of Muan and then drive 48 miles to Sankuyo Village. Them teams must find the water tower, to receive their next clue."

Ron&Kelly head out on the right track as they find their first route marker along the way.

Rob&Amber-2nd to depart-5:43AM

Rob and Amber feel that they have no friends left in the race and that its just the two of them here together. They also find their first route marker and head out on the right track.

Uchenna&Joyce-3rd to depart-5:51AM

Lynn&Alex-4th to depart-5:52AM

Lynn and Alex state that they are good honest players yet sneeky not like the other teams that biker and play the game more dirty.

Meredith&Gretchen-5th to depart-6:12AM

Brian&Greg-6th to depart-6:22AM

This brother brother team things everyone are strong competitors but would like to take out Meredith and Gretchen who are right ahead of them.

As they head to their first clue, Rob and Amber are fascinated by the ostriches crossing the road. Amber's dream before she died was to go on an African Safari.
Amber: We are the two luckiest people in the world.

Lynn and Alex decide that Uchenna and Joyce are driving too slow so they pass them. Lynn and Alex are also fascinated by the animals and thank the cows for letting them pass.

As Meredith and Gretchen head to the first clue, they take a wrong turn and end up in the wrong place unable to find the next clue. But they are finally able to head on the right track when they find the sign that says Maun.

Ron&Kelly-first to the detour.

"A detour is a choice between two tasks each with its own pros and cons. In this detour teams have to choose between two common village chores-carry it or milk it."
"In carry it, each team member has to balance these three items on their head and carry it to a cooking area approxinately 20 yards away. Teams may not use their hands to keep these items steady. Wehn all the items have been delivered they'll be handed their next clue. The balancing act can be tough, but teams that can master the technic could finish fast."

"In milk it, teams choose goats from this pen, tie them up, and then squeeze out enough milk to fill a ten ounce cup, to receive their next clue. The task appears simple but milking these goats is not as easy as it looks and could take teamws a long time to finish."

Ron&Kelly decide to milk the goats but as they pass the bucket task, Ron decides that this task is simpler. As soon as they start, it is obvious it will take to long so then Ron decides to switch back to milk it. Rob and Amber also choose to milk the goats.

Brian and Greg also get lost and find a water tower. Brian choses to climb it but when they read their clue one more time, they figure out they are in the wrong spot and quickly get back on track.

As soon as Rob&Amber get to the milk it task they decide it will take too long so they switch to carry it. Amber begins this task very well but Rob has a lot of problems balancing the items and walking, so they decide to switch again to milk it.

Lynn&Alex are next to arrive and choose to do milk it. Meredith and Gretchen also choose to milk it, while Uchenna and Joyce are the only ones who choose to carry it.

Ron&Kelly are first to leave the detour.

"Teams must now drive themselves 21 miles through the bush, to this point, on the kwai river, it is here that teams will find their next clue."

Rob&Amber are second to depart the detour.

Uchenna&Joyce are third to depart, after being the first team to successfully complete the carry it task.

Meredith&Gretchenwere next to depart-4th place.

Brian&Greg finally make it to the detour and choose to milk it.

On their way to the second clue Lynn&Alex have a breakdown as their car won't work properly and they need to get a replacement car. Fortunatly the replacement car comes quickly and they do not waste much time.

Ron & Kelly and Rob&Amber are a few feet apart as they drive for their next clue. Ron&Kelly are the first to reach the cluebox and find out that...

"A roadblock is a task that only one person may perform, and in this roadblock one team member has to navigate the teams vehicle through this crocidile infested river crossing after that they'll continue through the bush to this raea where the driver must choose a path by removing the marking post, the paths are blocked by trees and knocked over by elephants. Here the person must remove two lovgs from the road and then drive to their next clue."

Rob and Ron both decide to do the roadblock and compete for first place. Ron&Kelly both have a little bit of a lead over rob&Amber.

Uchenna&Joyce are next to find the roadblock and Uchenna decides to do it.

Meredith and Gretchen come next and Meredith does it.

Lynn&Alex-Alex decides to complete the roadblock.

As Lynn coaches Alex through all the driving, Ron and Rob battle it out for first place. Rob and Amber are able to get to the last clue, first.

"Teams must now drive themselves 9miles to the community of kwai, here teams must find kwai river lodge, this camp, Botswana's oldest safari lodge is the pit stop for this leg of the race, the last team to check in here, may be eliminated."

Funniest Part of Show: Rob thinks there is a monkey on the back of a giraffe but amber straightens him out by pointing out that it's the giraffe's tail.

There is a very close foot race in the end between Rob and Amber and Ron and Kelly and Rob and Amber rise to the top by becoming number 1 and winning a trip for two from travelocity including airfare and helicopter transfer. Ron and Kelly come in as team #2.

Uchenna and Joyce enter the pitstop as team #3 but find out that they did not complete the roadblock correctly because they forgot to take the post out but this doesn't hurt them and they end up in 3rd place after it all anyways.

Meredith and Gretchen also stumble upon a problem by missing their last clue and following the route markers to the next pit stop. Phil is in awe wondering how they got their and informs them that they must go back and get their clue before they are checked in.

As Alex and Lynn head to the pitstop, they think that they are last and it might be a non-elimination leg so Alex decides to put on any extra clothes that he can but they are shocked to find out that they are team #4!

It once again becomes a race to the finsih line between Meredith and Gretchen and last place Brian and Greg. Brian and Greg knew they were last so they decided to dress up in goofy clothes thinking that if Phil saw them, he couldn't eliminate them. Unfortunatly for the brothers, Meredith and Gretchen already knew where the pit stop was and beat them to it. The brothers became the 6th team to be eliminated from the race.
