Okay, maybe I'm a little different, but I don't see anything unusual in Ronald (Dad) calling Nicolas (the Grandson) on his behavior. The Asian Culture is big on respect (which we could use a little more of in America), and he was simply not going to let the incident go unmentioned.
However, Ronald was very rude to Christina, and I hope they work things out together so they can be a part of the race a little longer. I wouldn't mind Nicolas and Donald hanging around for a while either.
I still don't have any particular favorites, though Kynt & Vixen (the goth couple) are growing on me. They work together really well. Rachel and TK may be an interesting couple to watch, too.

It just annoys me that Ron's upset about Nicolas being slightly rude to a stranger. And he himself is way more rude with his own daughter.

Yeah. But it was funny when he then fell over and said, "I shouldn't have said that." Like he got punished for saying it. LOL!!

Finally the 'married ministers' are out of the race and I'm sure quite a few crosswalkers are happy about that. (I find that everyone is a bit hard on them though, what about the gay 'male teams' in past races?)
Can't speak for everyone here, but my problem is only partly in the "gay" part and mostly in the "gay minister" part. The world sees "gay" as a lifestyle choice. God sees it as sin and for people to be openly living in sin and also claiming to be His servants is just disgraceful to me.

I was sorry the sisters were eliminated. They seemed to be plodding along steadily without any major mistakes or missteps that I can remember.
I'm glad the father saw that he was being overbearing with his daughter and is trying to take steps to come across better.
I had mixed emotions about the girl having a meltdown. On the one hand I kept thinking, "Just calm down and keep at it!" But on the other hand, when you're tired and stressed it's hard to do that.

I thought it was sad that the sisters probably lost b/c they helped the girl freaking out. If they wouldn't have told her to go to a camel with a baby and pointed to the one she was using that had a lot of milk, that girl would have been hysterical for a long time and the sisters could have made it. At least they lost for being nice, but I was sad to see them go b/c I liked them.

My thoughts exactly, they tried to help Ms. Hysterical, if they hadn't they would have made it. Now we get stuck with Ms. Hysterical for another episode. Is she the one who's donkey wouldn't budge in the first leg of the race?
On the other hand, I'm glad to see that the father (of the father/daughter team) acknowledged his criticalness and is making steps to be more bearable. The two of them seem to be getting along a lot better now.
I notice that Nicholas isn't doing any of the detours - he doesn't even look eager to do any, but is leaving them all up to his poor grandpa! What a shame!

I was surprised how well her boyfriend handles her freaking out like that. Most guys would be getting pretty mad at that point.
I thought she was just being ridiculous because the more you freak the more the camel is going to too!
I too thought it was too bad that the sisters lost basically because of helping that couple out. I guess it's an ethical way to go, but still too bad.

I felt bad for the girls when they broke down during the camel challenge. I think it would tough to get milk out of a camell.
I feel bad for the father daughter team cause of the dads hurnia. But am suprised on how well they did. Don't know much about hurnias but what I have heard it hurts.
Sad to see the sisters go but it was there time.

I think her emotions were more from frustrations. I found it really odd that it took them awhile to let the girls know that they can move from one camel to another. I would be frustrated myself also if I see the others having camels not having milk problem and I would have one who have no milk and then be told hours later like -- oh yeah, maybe your camel don't have anymore milk, you can move to the next camel.

No. One couple with the stubborn donkey was the blond girl and her boyfriend, the other was the team that got eliminated that night.

I would assume that their reasoning is that since the grandpa is not going to be able to do some of the more physically challenging detours, he's doing the ones he can now and Nicholas will take the harder ones. Or perhaps he is doing what challenges he can now when he isn't as tired as he will be later on. They have to divide up the detours anyway, so Nicholas I'm sure will get his share in.

Phil said when he was explaining the task that they could use other camels but had to wait until all the other teams were done first before changing camels. I don't know if that was in their written instructions or if the people overseeing the task just let them know when the others were done that they could try another one.

I told my mom that having the camel babies around the camels would stimulate the milk production - gosh, the things you learn from breasfeeding!
My husband would have gotten so frustrated with milking that he would have thrown all the milk down, I'm sure. But then again, a non-physical leg is one I would have ended up doing anyway. Bring on the milk!
I kinda thought the sisters would go early on, don't know why.

This episode was special for us because we sponsor a child from Burkino Faso through Compassion.

I was hoping this was a non-elimination round. I was sorry to see Jason and Lorena go. I don't agree with his philosophy of marriage, but he was a good competitor.
I'm really liking the Goth couple. I enjoyed watching the dances and seeing the Africans laugh at them.

I missed the first two episodes so I am a bit behind in knowing who is who still. But I can tell you this from watching epi #3 and last night. I DO NOT like the father/daughter(he just seems annoying) team and I also don't like the blondes( they are just rude). My favs so far are the brother/sister team(the African-American[not sure if there is another bro/sis team]) and the Goth team.
