Survivor UpdateRandom notes:
Yaxha continues their losing streak; they are now 1-5 in challenges, with only the first week's immunity challenge to their credit.
I'd like to believe that I'd have an advantage in 114 degree heat, being used to it, but we don't get the humidity.
Danni kicked major league butt in Mayan basketball, scoring three of Nakum's five goals. Not surprising given
her Survivor bio:
Having grown up with seven brothers, she developed a keen competitive edge. Boatwright was a high school athlete who competed in basketball, volleyball, cross country and track where, as a freshman, she help set a record in the two mile relay that still stands today.This week the immunity challenge had some relationship to the Mayans, but the reward challenge was building a tent after first gathering the material blindfolded. Both Gary and the gal from the other team (as usual, the winning tribe doesn't get as much focus) did well guiding their teammates but Yaxha seemed to have a huge lead as they started construction of the tent. But Nakum caught up quickly and in the end they slipped on their final rope.
Probst made a clear warning that the next few challenges may not be physical, although it's hard to say whether that would have changed the vote. Brianna did perform poorly in the immunity challenge. The only drama was whether Amy's ankle sprain was bad enough to convince the others to vote her off, but it didn't happen. Still, you know the next day she definitely will not be moving around much.
Oh, yeah, here's a clue for next week, Nakum. If it's a puzzle, don't play Bobby Jon!
