LIVE BLOG!
To make up for not posting anything for Episode 3 I've decided to live-blog the West coast feed of tonight's episode. Teams will take off from Playa Petrohue, Chile.
Everyone will need to get to the airport and fly to another part of Chile, once on the ground they will have to drive to their destination: Lord Lonsdale's Shipwreck.
After checking in at the airport Rob & Amber hop on the internet and investigate their clue, searching around and finding out that they will probably be looking for a painting when they land, and not an actual shipwreck.
Other teams begin to arrive at the airport and book similar flights out at 9:40am. Terri and Ian are too late and do not get this flight, which means Joe & Bill and Charla & Mirna who are just on their way from the pit stop, won't be able to make it either.
Terri and Ian luck out as the airline finds them two seats. Joe & Bill are SOL and as Charla & Mirna arrive they all get on the same flight at 11:15am.

As teams land they ride to get their clue, it is at the sight of a shipwreck.
DETOUR - based on Magellan's voyages.
1) Navigate it
Use a map to get to the plaza where they get a compass, heading straight South to find the nautilus building where they will get their next clue.
2) Sign it
Choose a pole and building supplies, use a map as reference to figure out where Magellan's voyage began, building a sign post with all visited cities' names nailed to it - spelled correctly.
Eric & Dani and Oswald & Danny finish Navigate it first, meanwhile Rob & Amber struggle with Sign it as their city names are spelled wrong. Terri & Ian also finish Navigate it with ease and advance to the airport.
Teams must then travel 165 miles by charter plain to get to Argentina.
Joe & Bill and Mirna & Charla JUST arrive at the FIRST airport location and head toward the shipwreck where they will get their DETOUR clue.
Uchenna & Joyce are the first to finish Sign it and head to the airport where they are on the second flight out. Amber urges Rob to quit and head to Navigate it but he won't give up. FYI Rob, it's not spelled "Philipeans". The Beauty Queens convince Rob & Amber to quit and head to Navigate, they team up and head to the OTHER detour. Charla & Mirna head to Sign it, foolishly. Joe & Bill head to Navigate it around the same time at Rob & Amber and the BQs.
I seriously think the BQs have a very sensible and straightforward approach to their game this season. Working reasonably with other teams and leaving the drama for Charla & Mirna.

Charla & Mirna give up on Sign it, meanwhile Joe & Bill complete Navigate it - Rob & Amber and the BQs finish their detour while Joe & Bill are arriving at the airport, they all get signed up on charter #2.
Charter #1 lands and teams race to the next clue. Terri & Ian and Os & Danny search for the clue box. Teams must tarvel by taxi to a bay where they will take a boat which will only take 2 teams at a time. It will bring them to an island where they will need to get their next clue from the post office. The name of the island means "end of the world" as it's the southern-most tip of South America.
The boat leaves every 20 minutes - Eric & Dani and Os & Danny get on the first boat and get to their clue - a ROAD BLOCK
Choose a full mail bag, search through 1600 letters to find a letter addressed to their team. What they don't know is that the letters are written by some of their competitors from the first season. Once they find their letter they will have to read it out loud and get their next clue.
Once their Road Block is complete teams must follow a path from the post office to Mastil de Belgrano to find the pit stop.
Terri & Ian make it on boat #3, Uchenna & Joyce, Joe & Bill and the BQs are all behind, lining up for a boat.
Oswald & Danny hit the mat first, followed by Eric & Danielle.
While looking for the clue Rob & Amber pretend to find it and tell Charla & Mirna in passing, that they found the clue way off track. This leaves them to search in a false location. It was actually pretty funny but C & M are right pissed.
Terri & Ian find their letter at the post office and head on foot to the path toward the pit stop.
Joe & Bill and the BQs get on boat 6, Uchenna & Joyce and Rob & Amber are on boat 7 with Charla & Mirna on boat 8.
Rob & Amber are confronted by C & M who say they lied to them about getting the clue. Well of COURSE they lied, they're playing the game. But Amber perpetuated it and when confronted said, she wasn't telling THEM she found the clue already, she was just talking to Rob about something. Rob IS rubbing off on her.

BQ and Joe & Bill arrive at the post office to sort their mail. Rob & Amber and Uchenna & Joyce are on the boat. Joe & Bill find their letter first and take off. The BQs find their letter, which is actually from Bama! But only one of the ladies signed it - BQ makes their way to the path up to the pit stop and comes in 5th.
Rob & Amber, Uchenna & Joyce are still sorting mail as Charla and Mirna arrive. Uchenna & Joyce find their letter first and take off finishing 6th. Rob & Amber take off in a foot race vs Rob & Amber with Charla yelling "LEVEL 5 on the treadmill!" They make it to the mat first, in 7th place. Rob and Amber arrive LAST at the mat and are ELIMINATED! They're in really great spirits but it was interesting that they went from 1st to last - all because of the Sign it detour.

Don't give up! You can make it until the end!
Or maybe you got wind of what was coming and couldn't take seeing it. I'd understand!
Enjoyable up until the cut-off, in any case!
Spoiler ....
chral and minar ar out
i hate to say but it sure looks that way
Wow well at the end of this show I have to admit that I was a little tossed up in my feelings. While I am no big fan of Rob and Amber, I am considerable less of a fan of the Charla and Mirna.
Honestly so far this season I havent found myself hating Rob like I have in previous seasons. Granted he is cocky and has something of an attitude, but he is also confident and really understands that its a game probably more than anyone else. With them gone this early it really is anyone's game at this point.
At this point I think the strongest teams are Uchenya and Joyce, and the BQ's. When the BQ's are not rushing they are usually on the ball and not making mistakes.
Can only hope that Charla and Mirna are out soon. Tired of them complaining about other teams treatment of them, when they are just as underhanded as the rest.

I'm not sad to see Bob and Amber go! Granted they were fun to watch at times, I'm just tired of their Reality TV showings.
I'm just glad we won't have to see them until the finish line now.
WOOHOO!!!
My DVR got screwed and didn't record this episode. I'm, like, seriously upset. Rob & Amber gone! Does anyone know where to find this online?
Rob and Amber gone?? They created rivalry. I won't watch the rest of Amazing Race 11.
I am glad that Rob and Amber are gone. As soon as Charla and Mirna are gone, things are going to get good. There is just way too much drama with these 4.
I love the amazing race but I really loved watching rob and amber. I am devastasted that they got eliminated. It isn't as exciting anymore, but I will continue to watch it.
I think the race is stupid. What happen to the challenges? Bungie Jumps, etc. The people involved are not "all stars." You could have picked a random number of people and had better competition.
Uchenna said something on last night's episode (3/18) that I loved. it went something like this: By not trusting your instinct/gut/intuition, you are basically telling God or the Universe that He (God) is wrong. Does anyone know Uchenna's exact words? I didn't TIVO it- many thanks!!
