The Amazing Race
I don’t know about you, but this is one of my favorite shows. I enjoy seeing all the places around the world and the game is just fun. I’d certainly consider playing.

My son lived in Egypt for a time [Cairo] while working on a project for one of his college courses. That whole show he was so thrilled to get to see some of the places he got to visit. They were there to study the effects of pollution on the monuments, so he got to go in some that most other people do not get to go into. He loved it there. He keeps encouraging his father and I to go…but not til this world settles down a bit, so perhaps – never. That’s just sad.
I was so hoping that the dwarf girl was going to fall in while trying to get that bag at the base of that pyramid. Doggone it, that would be entertaining television.
I am rooting for Chip and his wife. I also like the very pretty couple [can’t think of names tonight] the ones who look either very travel savvy, or very travel lucky!

The Hermitage does look pretty cool. Still like Chip and Kim. The brothers are are beginning to grow on me.

Not so keen on Egypt (can’t help it — I look at those pyramids and think of the Jewish slave labor that built them), but I would love to go to Russia. The Hermitage Museum was exquisite. Would have loved to have gotten lost inside of it for a few hours.
Funniest line last night was when Marshall yelled at Lance to quit looking at the camels.

The cousins drive me nuts. I have been to the border of Egypt and Israel several times, but never quite made it officially into Egypt. I plan on going one day.

I really like this show too. I watched tonights episode after missing the last two weeks. I like the little person but her cousin is very annoying. She never gives up and you have to admit things are harder for her. I liked tonights show, I have been to eygpt myself and it looks totally different in person. It was one of the most amazing places I’ve been though and I had always wanted to see the pyramids.

Oops, I meant Chip and Kim. (I grew up next door to brothers who were named Chip and Tim, so I have a total brain fart about it). 🙂

Kse, I agree with you. They are sooooo annoying. My favorites are Chip and Tim. So glad they pulled into #1 last week. Can’t wait for tonight.
Jack, I love the new look of the blog.

Jack,
I love this show too.
I can’t help it, but I can’t stand the dwarf girl…her cousin either. Good grief, she is showing that little people can do things anyone else can and keeps asking for help or using it as a ploy to get special priviledge. Hopefully tonight she’ll get stuck in one of the pyramids and her cry baby cousin [an attorney…oh paleez, maybe a nail tech from Jersey, but no attorney] will have to go in after her and get stuck too!!!
