I know! I know! I have missed a few episodes. Life has been crazy! But, without furthur ado, here's my recap of this week's episode!
Norway was the scene. It was filled with snow, gondolas, boats, bikes and rapelling. I must say that watching them do that rapelling on the bridge really made my arms hurt! I mean, the whole coordination between your legs and arms is HARD work. And they had a long way to climb back up!
In the end, Nat and Kat (Drs.) finished first...again. I am noticing a trend. They took the fast forward and had to eat a sheep's head. (Eyes included!) Since one of them hadn't eaten meat in years, it was an interesting challenge to watch, but not as gross as some other eating challenges. My father said, "Why are their eating challenges always like Fear Factor?" This challenge, though, didn't seem that bad. No one puked. That's something!
At the detour, they had the choice of biking or boating. Biking was quicker, but the boating didn't seem to take too much extra time, which worked out well for Kevin and his Dad. (My favorite team right at the moment!) They are so funny! I was glad that they came in 4th place.
And then there was the comedic team of the evening: Tattoo couple, who continually astound and dumbfound us with their 'blondness'. Last night was no exception. They arrive at the Road Block and decide to try for the Fast Forward, even though they were second last. As stated above, Nat and Kat had already gorged themselves on sheep's head and were safely across the finish line by the time the tattooers arrived there. There was a sign that read "Fast Forward Taken". If you have ever watched The Amazing Race, you would know that that means the Fast Forward has been taken by another team. Not our tattoers. No. They stood there looking at the sign, wondering aloud, "What does that mean?" ......Huh? Wow! You don't know what that means?
Anyway, they looked around. The stayed for a few minutes. Then they decided to move on, but not without giving us more to look back on and laugh at!
In the end, the Volleyball girls were constantly trying to play catch-up on this leg of the race. Unfortunately, they never could quite make up the difference and were eliminated in this round!
Next week it looks like they are headed to Russia. Should be an interesting episode, perhaps with some language barriers! Should be good.

Here we do have the Amazing Race as well, a China edition with mostly expats I think. I suddenly bumped into it a few weeks ago and actually found it quite interesting how they managed it.
