Did i mention that i was in the AMAZING RACE?

Well,  not THAT Amazing Race.  This one is actually not televised.  And the most we could win was $300.  But you get 8 people in a limo, a 50 page “to do” list, puzzles, trivia, time limits and random stops to either take a picture with cooperative strangers or obtain a specific item (beer coasters, children’s dress up jewelry, you name it) and there you have it- the 2009 Amazingest Race of Corte Madera.

Ocean’s 8 (our team name)  in the limo, strategerying….

Doing the Cha Cha with 3 strangers we picked up at the Corte Madera Shopping Center…. and another stranger was coerced into taking our picture.

and another pic of our team in front of the Fairfax movie theater.

We were exhausted, hungry and didn’t get nearly enough beer… and we took 5th.  Bah.
