It is sad for me to do this posting as the Cho Brothers have been eliminated. I like them. But due to bad navigation and decision, which they frequently stops (I lost count how many) asking for directions, paid the prize. It was as simple as hiring a taxi to lead their way could save them :( Just like Ziah put her comments on my previous posting, 'no wonder the Cho brothers always lost their way, it was because they were wearing the 'Lost' shirt' hehehe Good one Ziah! The Cho brothers could also immediately leave after completing the Roadblock but yet, they waited for the single moms to finish. If they were leading, then maybe they can wait but they know the other 3 teams are in front so they should know what position they are in. But past is past. Other teams move on.
After completing the 'spiderman' task all teams were instructed to fly to Kiev, the capital city of the former Soviet republic of Ukraine.
Upon arriving in Kiev, teams had to drive to the Oster Tank School, a Ukrainian military training facility. It was their Roadblock of the leg. A member of each team would get to drive a Soviet-era tank through an obstacle course.
Their next clue was directing them to drive back to Kiev and locate the building's no. 33 apartment. After finding the apartment, they received their Detour clue, either Make the Music or Find the Music. In Make the Music, teams must locate a hip-hop club, write and perform a rap song. In Find the Music, teams required to drive to the National Music Academy of Ukraine. They had to search a music sheet entitle 'Concert Fantasy' and handed to a pianist who will perform the piece before giving out the next clue.
After completing the Detour tasks, teams then proceeded to the Great Patriotic War Museum, the ninth Pistop of the Race. The models, Tyler & James reached first the Pitstop and won a trip for two to Puerto Vallarta. Followed by the Beauty Queens. Rob & Kim came in third. The single moms made a wise decision by hiring a taxi to lead them to the Pitstop. The Cho brothers who tried to navigate the streets on their own were detained by local police (why? I'm not sure. Maybe they drove into a closed-off street or something).
The Cho brothers had to hear to what Phil had to say "Erwin & Godwin, you are the last team to arrive. I'm sorry to tell you that you have been eliminated from the Race" arghh!!
Single moms & Beauty Queens are the first ever all-females team made it to the final 4. Whoever might be eliminated next, one of them definitely will be in the final 3. Beauty Queens who have been so far made minimal mistakes could be in the final 3. I remembered what happened to Derek & Drew in TAR 3. I thought the twin brothers could make it to the final 3 but they made a mistake in Leg 11 where they forgot to pick up the clue-cointaining Roadblock. We don't want that happens in TAR 10, would we?
In the meantime, CBS has confirmed that the Amazing RAce's 11th edition will be an all-stars featuring teams who competed on earlier seasons. It would be very interesting to watch, as all teams would be familiar faces. I'll write more on this in my next posting.
For the time being, I just want to enjoy The Amazing Race 10 and also The Amazing Race Asia!

saya x mrh...geram saja..hehe..biasalah..citarasa org berbeza2..sbb sayapun act x suka dgn cho brothers..hehe..awal2 saya suka..tapi bila dia tggu d other 2 team masa diorg berenang amik clue 2 saya dah x berkenan..alih2 team model blh potong plak...sdgkan saya mengharapkan diorg mng n be competetive...
BQ plak..awal2 mmg x suka sgt..x heranpun dgn diorg..tapi diorg sdh buktikan yg diorg competetive....so saya respect for that..bkn senang team pompuan mau lead the leg..dan diorng x gunakan org lain utk menang...mcm yg bama buat..masa diorg belikan tkt utk model 2 sbb diorg nak bls dendam dgn bama..ingt kah masa lps diorg buat puzzle di kuwait 2 bama halang org2 arab 2 tlg bq..padanlah dgn muka bama 2..hehe jahat sayakan?yg lain2 2..diorg cuma being competitive..hehe..
tapi apa2 halpun dua2 team ni x dpat msk final...sbb saya rasa hrpn BQ utk lead d leg kali ni tipis..team model mesti berusaha keras n berhati2..
