He did say the last team to arrive "may" be eliminated which suggests that there are legs where the last team isn't eliminated.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I really thought this one would be non-elim! Ah well.

Looks like a ~25 minute delay on TAR...
Cries a lot. Stupid dvr not understanding about football delays and not getting home in time to catch it. Freakin' thing cut off as Ron & Christina were headed to the pitstop in a cab while the babyihateyoubaby couple weren't able to get a cab due to wet.
So, what happened?? The siblings were eliminated?

Are we just not going to have any non-elim legs?
Phil said how many in the first episode when he sent them off. I think it was at least two. I was sure that today was the day, with it being such a short leg.

Once again, Eastern European cabbies come through with a bolt of justice for the undeserving team. It could have only been sweeter if it got them eliminated, but since they're doing a fine job of self-destructing by themselves.
I mean, losing a rowing contest with an old herniated guy? It's true that Ron has more willpower than the Energizer Bunny, and as long as Christina can keep him pointed in the right direction, he's going to get through any task, but there are limits to how much strength and speed he's got.
Felt bad for Hendekea and Azaria, but sometimes a bad break is a bad break -- it would have been a good leg for a non-elim, alas.
Dubrovnik is beautiful, isn't it? I take it that it's once again safe for tourism, if TAR is going there. ::makes mental note::

It is one of the new hip and happening places to vacation (i.e., the NYT has featured it a couple of times this past year and it's even popped up in my BudgetTravel mag).
Also, once again people make the mistake of thinking rowing a boat is somehow a no-brainer. I swear someone should develop a crash course for these reality contestants on the basics of canoeing and rowing.

I agree - bootcamp all around. I mean, who goes on Survivor without learning how to start a fire. Geeeesh.

I wonder if instead of Non-elim legs we're going to get episodes where they've done most of a "leg" and they see Phil but instead of getting a prize - they discover that the 'leg' continues - and we see the rest next episode.
