As we wait for the last few competitors to trickle in before starting Leg 2, I want to know: How did everyone like Leg 1? I know that the leg was short, but that was by design, because it was the first leg. Also, if you are worried about the clues being too easy, have no fear- they get exponentially harder with each leg.

So, how is everyone liking this so far?

I liked it until I learned that the clues would get harder. ;)

Well, not every one has made it to the pit stop yet, but a majority of you have. Since it's not really fair to everyone else, I'm going to send out the first clue to the next leg, and the two people that have not yet checked in will continue when they get there.
So, let the second leg of the Amazing Race begin!
I will start handing out clues now. Remember that the clues are handed out in the same order that they were received- so the person who came in first will get the clue first, a few minutes later the second place person, etc.

Sure! However, I should warn you that you will be at a very high disadvantage, so you might want to work hard today to get caught up!

Look back at page 2 to find the first clue. Hurry!
