The Amazing Race 4

Just before lunch, I treated Jack to a car wash @ Brushbusters. I then had a beef gyro @ Shine's Mediterranean Market, and another Spite Tropical ReMix (yum).

After work, I watched The Amazing Race 4 during the leg that started in Mumbai and went to Ernakulam, in southern India (26 hour train ride).

Successful travel invariably comes down to the little stuff. I recall a previous Amazing Race coming down to the wire, won by the team that could flag a taxi the fastest (in a residential neighborhood). Wow.

In Amazing Race 4, the models (Tian and Jaree) were eliminated because one of them couldn't hold onto the harness during the "mud bull race"; it took 3 attempts before they completed the task, by which time Reichen & Chip had taken their chickens to market (even a few months from now, this will make no sense whatsoever but it was amusing tonight).

Next episode: 7pm next Thursday (five teams remain).
