*Genius and xxsolitudexx compete with each other to reach the peak first*

Genius: *tries to see if anyone's watching*
Genius: *humming a tune as if nothing's going to happen*
Genius: *pushes xxsolitudexx and she rolls down the path a few hundred metres*
wgal: FOUL! THAT WAS CHEATING!
Amarillo: Good job Genius!

Popo: Genius and Amarillo, you're the first team to arrive at 2.35pm.

Amarillo: That was a whacky nice push!
Genius: *winks*

*xxsolitudexx arrives 5 minutes later with some bruises*

Popo: wgal and xxsolitudexx, you're team number two.
wgal: I can't believe they didn't get a penalty for OBVIOUS CHEATING!
xxsolitudexx: It's okay, we'll take second!

*JP, i can't believe i'm the first here and i still have not check-in yet*

Popit: I don't know! It's bizzare!
Popo: Heather and Popit.. you are the fourth team to -
Heather: That's weird! o_O
Popo: WILL YOU LET ME FINISH OR NOT?
Popo: *thanks*
Popo: Heather and Popit, you are the fourth team to arrive at 3.10pm.
*Heather and Popit still vivid from shock*

*Third tram arrives few minutes later carrying MK, Tyler and Odvesims*

*Xochitl finally appeared after what seemed like an eternity, with Redwings and Jonty not far behind*

Popo: MK and Xochitl, you are the fifth team to arrive at 4.40pm.
MK: We did it! We did it!
Xochitl: *breathless after climb*
MK: *pats Xochitl hard on the back for several times to encourage her*
Xochitl: *chokes*
Xochitl: *can't breath*
Xochitl: *collapse*
MK: Eh oh, do you think the ambulance can reach this height?

*Redwings and Jonty fight it out*

Redwings: *trips Jonty*
Tyler: Go Redwings!
Odvesims: Hey! How can you do that to a girl!
Jonty: *pulls Redwings hair* You're not going to reach first!
Odvesims: You go girl! Kick him in the...
Redwings: OUCH! *kicks Jonty*

At this moment...

JP: Oh no, we checked in and we haven't use our "Slow" on someone! How can we forget!
username: We know who to use it on!
Redwings: *almost reaching Pitstop*
JP and username: *nods* We're using it on Redwings and Mr Tyler.
Popo: Got it!

*Almost instantly, a banana skin appeared before Redwings and he slipped and roll down the trail, falling behind Jonty*

Jonty: HARHAR! TAKE THAT!
Jonty: *reaches Pitstop*

Popo: Jonty and Odvesims, you're the sixth team to arrive at 4.50pm.
Odvesims: Sorry i tried to quit.
Jonty: I don't blame you.
Popo: Whatever happens next, if you're below 18 years of age.. please close your eyes.

Tyler: I can't believe we are done in by a BANANA SKIN!
Redwings: *appeared 5mins later*
Popo: Redwings and Mr Tyler, you're the last team to arrive.
Mr Tyler: We figured.
Redwings: Give it to us, we can take it.
Popo: However, this is the first of three pre-determined non-elimination legs and you're still in the race!
Mr Tyler: WHAT!
Redwings: WHEEEEEEEE!
Popo: The bad news is, if you do not come in first place next leg.. you will receive a 30 minutes penalty which will probably destroy your chances of winning this game.
Redwings: We can do it!
Mr Tyler: You bet! Watch out other teams!

popo - before the roadblock, us and odvesims/jonty were both at 3:20 pm - our time card was 85 minutes and theirs was 90 minutes so shouldn't we be ahead of them by five minues - you added 95 minutes to our time (3:20 + 95 minutes = 4:55)

LEG 4 RECAP

Previously on Popos The Amazing Race Fantasy Challenge, 8 teams of 2 set out from Tokyo, Japan and flew all the way to Melbourne, Australia. Heather and Popit as well as Jonty and Odvesims took an early lead in Melbourne when they decided to take a VIP Cab to the Melbourne Cricket Ground, where they found a Roadblock.

At the Roadblock, one team member has to score in as many goals as they can within 2 minutes against a professional goalkeeper before they can receive their next clue. While Jonty excelled at the Roadblock, it was Popit who had difficulties scoring against the professional goalkeeper, causing their team to fall from first to last. Completing the Roadblock in first place, Jonty and Odvesims received their next clue where they found out they must proceed to Rialto Towers and have to take a lift to the highest floor of one of the two buildings to find the next clue. However, going up the wrong tower will cost valuable time lost, where this mistake allowed wgal and xxsolitudexx and Genius and Amarillo to catch-up as they got it on their first try.

However, it was still Jonty and Odvesims who arrived at the top of Tower #1 first where they found the first of three yields placed in this race. While el_sheik_doufa and sun7kid ponder whether they wanted to yield Redwings and Mr Tyler, Amarillo made the decision for their team that he wanted to use the yield on Redwings and Mr Tyler. This decision enraged Mr Tyler when they reached the yield mat, half-expecting their worst fears to come true, which is being yielded. While Genius still did not approve of his decision, what done has been done and Redwings and Mr Tyler stood on the yield mat, waiting for the sand in their hourglass to run out.

Still in first place, Jonty and Odvesims received their next clue, which they have to choose between Art or Music. While most teams chose to complete Music, several teams decided that theyre more Artistic than they seemed. At the Detour, wgal and xxsolitudexx overtook Jonty and Odvesims and received their next clue, which instructed them to WALK to the Pitstop at the Shrine of Remembrance, Melbourne's largest war memorial built from money raised by public contributions. Confident that they will come in first place, the only all-female team left on this race overlooked their clue and went on to take a taxi to the pitstop.

However, Popos stupid trick not only managed to get them but several other teams such as Redwings and Mr Tyler and Genius and Amarillo who also decided to take a taxi too. MK and Xochitl decided to take a bus, which wasnt allowed and all these teams have no idea what awaited them at the pitstop.

Arriving at the pitstop in first and second place respectively, Genius and Amarillo as well as wgal and xxsolitudexx received a shock when they found out that they were given a 37minutes time penalty for breaching the rules of this race. This allowed third place JP and username to move to the top of the pack where they won a Slow which they can use to stop a team on the next leg of the race for 10minutes long. While el_sheik_doufa and sun7kid arrived fourth, their time penalty for not completing the Detour started ticking away. Xochitl and MK arrived at the pitstop only to find out they have received a 35minutes penalty. This mistake allowed sixth place Jonty and Odvesims to move up all the way to second place.

While wgal and xxsolitudexx claimed third after their time penalty, Heather and Popit arrived to claim fourth place. Even though arriving second, Genius and Amarillo still managed to check-in fifth after their 37minutes time penalty. Xochitl and MK finally check-in sixth, leaving the risk of elimination down to 2 teams Redwings and Mr Tyler as well as el_sheik_doufa and sun7kid, who were still serving their 4 hours time penalty for not completing the Detour. However, it was no use as Redwings and Mr Tyler checked in after a series of unfortunate events, therefore sealing el_sheik_doufa and sun7kids fate causing them to be the fourth team eliminated from Popos The Amazing Race Fantasy Challenge.

7 teams remain, who will be eliminated next?

LEG 5 RECAP

Previously on Popos The Amazing Race Fantasy Challenge, 7 teams of 2 flew from Melbourne, Australia to Vancouver, Canada. JP and username as well as Heather and Popit caught an early break when they were the only 2 teams to reach Vancouver at 5.50am, but soon arrived at the Vancouver Aquarium after they picked up their clue from Pan Pacific Vancouver Hotel and found out that it does not open until 9.30am in the morning. This enabled 3 more teams, wgal and xxsolitudexx, Genius and Amarillo as well as Jonty and Odvesims who arrived on another 2 separate flights to catch up with them. However, Redwings and Mr Tyler as well as Xochitl and MK only arrived at 12.02pm and 1.10pm respectively.

At 9.30am, 5 teams rushed in to the Vancouver Aquarium where they found a Detour, where they have to choose between Dry or Wet. While JP and username did well in Wet and received their next clue first, wgal and xxsolitudexx also completed their Dry detour seconds later. With both teams receiving their next clue and advancing to the H.R. MacMillan Space Centre for their next clue, Jonty and Odvesims soon fell behind when Jonty couldnt complete the Detour and decided to take a 4 hours time penalty. Arriving at H.R. MacMillan Space Centre in first place, JP and username soon found out that the 2 show times for the show entitled Our Vanishing Sky doesnt show until 12pm and 2pm.

4 teams (Amarillo and Genius, Heather and Popit, wgal and xxsolitudexx and JP and username) watched the show at 12pm, while the remaining 3 teams have to settle for the show time at 2pm, with all 3 teams tied squarely in last place when they reached the Roadblock at Grouse Mountain after the show. In the Roadblock, one team member will have to hike to the peak of Vancouver on The Grouse Grind, an extremely steep and mountainous trail that climbs 853 meters over a distance of 2.9 kilometers. The other team member will instead take a Skyride tram to the top where they will find Popo and the fifth pitstop in the race around the world. They will then have to wait for their teammate to complete the Roadblock before both of them can check-in to the Pitstop.

A battle to complete the Roadblock first soon existed between the teams. While Genius and Amarillo did a foul and came in first, wgal and xxsolitudexx happily settled for second place. JP and username took third while Heather and Popit claimed fourth. The battle to avoid elimination soon came down to Redwings and Mr Tyler as well as Jonty and Odvesims when Xochitl and MK checked in fifth. However at the last moment, JP and username decided to use their Slow on Redwings and Mr Tyler, causing them to become the last team to arrive.

However, this is a pre-determined NEL and they are still in the race with a hunger to do even better on the next leg. Will they be able to come in first and avoid the 30 minutes penalty? We will find out next on Popos The Amazing Race Fantasy Challenge, where the remaining 7 teams continue on their race around the world. Stay tune!

Departing the pitstop in first place at 2.35am, Genius and Amarillo ripped open their first clue.

Route Info:
You must now make your way to Vancouver International Airport, where you'll sign up on one of the three chartered flights into New York, USA.

Once there, you will need to find and drive one of the marked cars parked outside New York J F Kennedy International Airport to the place in the photo shown below where you'll find your next clue.

You have US $30 for this leg of the race. Genius and Amarillo will receive US $36.

Chartered Plane #1

After you have chosen your flight, one team member will need to PM to me the name of the statue shown in the picture above.
Yes i know... it's easy.
