Episode 4 - Those Who Wander Are Not Lost:
Teams paraglide their way to the start of this leg in Medellín, Colombia, where they must choose between detours getting in sync or decoding a rebus puzzle.
Enjoy the show!

I’m watching Yvonne and Melissa and I’m thinking, who are they? They sort of slip past me every episode as if invisible.  |

Ricky and Caesar spotted 4 of the 6 puzzle pieces just going up the escalator.

Military buddies are attempting break dancing. Wow! I’m yelling think to Caesar. The world is bigger than you think! or, maybe smaller than you think? |

Puzzle challenge is much faster than learning to break dance. (Maybe they will get to have dinner with Aunt tonight, if they are eliminated. )

I’m surprised by the number of teams that have chosen break dancing.

Caesar and Ricky have already caught up to the first team and Vinny is stressing her so much! Amber is loosing it! He should hug her, not tell her she needs to take some time!  |

Wow firewomen think E is an OM sign, but it fits with Th+ E to give “the”
somehow they come up with “those who wander are not lost”?

Oh my the firefighters are way off. Waaaaay off. All of the break dancers have passed and they are still on the rebus puzzle.

Firewomen are killing me, “the world is smaller than I think” was one of their answers but they just needed to switch I for you. They are so close.

Amber and Vinny while waiting for directions, help Danny and Angie out with the sculpture pieces……. So sweet.

Michelle (and Sean ) has the sculpture map upside down. Cousins are stressed, crying.
I have to admit, it’s hard to tell where they are…… in relation to museum at first look. It’s easy to position pieces upside down.

Omg, I thought the mural puzzle was far easier than the hip hop. That was until Sunny and Bizzy couldn't get it, they were so wrong..it's funny how some things just won't click. I loved Phil jumping rope with the last team.
Danny and his mum came in third, well done!

Sean and Michelle are last team and are eliminated. Sean: “ On the other side of fear, is life. “ Before they leave they jump rope with Phil. Phil was good! They were a good team and I’m sorry to see them go. |

The group paragliding was fun and something that TAR does not normally do, I wonder if this was an Expedia thing that you can do in Medellin? Vinny (traveling nurses), yeah, I do think you are being a prick.
Both Amber and Vinny are young and fit but Vinny is taller, has longer legs, and yes is stronger. Telling Amber to run faster is not helping she is going to hurt herself trying to keep up, she needs to be the one that sets the pace not you.
OK, at least they had a conversation in the taxi and got that all straightened out.

Seriously, the firefighters are so over thinking the picture word puzzle so much, 27 attempts. Really?
I did like how the other teams substituted words like world or globe for picture of the earth, and how they tried bigger or smaller for the magnifying glass, and you or I for the reflection in the mirror. That was smart and made sense.
Don't even on the folks who are directionally challenged, and can't see the map even when it is if front of them, and then can't orientate themselves or other objects on that map.

Very surprised that the firefighters made it and there were NOT last.
I have to give the last three teams kudos for persistence for completing the task and for not losing their tempers.
I have to give the last three teams a big fat zero for their map reading skills.
Very glad mom and son made third place.

I don't think the firefighters understood what a rebus puzzle is. But I did think it was interesting that at the roadblock, the one who did it oriented herself via the two circles as opposed to the buildings and had far less trouble as a result.
And Double Dutch Mom and Dad may not have won the race, but they win the award for best exit ever by teaching Phil to Double Dutch so quickly---and loved Phil saying to the camera, "That better make the final cut!" because he wanted to share his triumph with the AR audience.

Wow firewomen think E is an OM sign, but it fits with Th+ E to give “the” somehow they come up with “those who wander are not lost”? Oh my gosh, I was laughing when I watched them, it was so bad! They were overthinking that whole thing so much. Wow. I thought eventually it would click, but, nope!! I wonder what they think about it now. Sad to see the last team go. I wished it had been Vinny after his rudeness ("You're just so SLOW!"). At least she kind of stuck up for herself and spoke out, instead of taking it. His effort at working it out seemed to me to be just because he's on TV, and she told him he's looking like an a-hole. haha The cousins can go any time now, they annoy me. |

Vinny & Amber - glad to see that she stood up for herself and also said she lacked self confidence and was getting stressed becasue she could not keep up and didn't want to disappoint him.
Couples need very good communication because lets face it a fit women who is traditionally shorter than the man cannot not physically match the leg length and speed a man has that is simple biology. Amber could potentially hurt herself trying to match his pace. If she sprains an ankle or rips up her knee the race is OVER. I have seen this happen on The MTV Challenge and it is NOT a desired outcome. TAR is a marathon. The most important thing is to keep a good pace and don't stress, if you stress you don't read the clue right, you get lost, you spiral.
I did notice that the other M&F teams are actually communicating well and not blaming the partner which is a refreshing change.
I do wish the mother and son team would not make too many alliances becasue this race seems very neck and neck and don't help too much so it messes up your placement in the race.
