Amazing Race Here We Come!!!

Well, not really.

Anyone that knows me knows that I LOVE the Amazing Race.  It is absolutely my favorite show.  I've seen almost every episode.  I put everything on hold so I can watch it.  I even told my Home Teacher once that he had to leave because the race was starting.  A couple of years back my sister and I applied for the race but alas we didn't get picked.  I was naturally disappointed.  However, we've found the next best thing.

My brother introduced us to City Race.  It is a three-hour long scavenger hunt in LA.  We had to answer 26 questions within that time frame and we spent a very hot Saturday afternoon running around downtown LA.  It was a really fun experience because not only was it a race but we got to spend some time down town which is an area we do not visit too often. 

We ended up placing 2nd which was pretty impressive.  We answered all but one question and we even got some bonus questions.  We finished in 2 1/2 hours.  Next time we will play 1st!

Go Team Blue!  (I like how Sean is throwing signs)

One of our clues led us to this spot near the Staples Center

I dont know how anyone did it without phones

Hotel Figueroa--This was actually a really cool place

We had to look at the mural above this metro stop.

One of our competitors--they didn't stand a chance!

This answer was inside a Historic Building (Forgive the blurriness)

Since there was a team nearby we were trying to be sly and looked for the clue across the street.

Example of one of our clues.

Our Team, the Four Seasons!

Top Ten-the family in front was the winners
