What were they thinking?!

Why on earth did these goofs choose move it over shake it. Shake it was by far the better choice. That bad call almost got them eliminated! For a couple minutes I seriously thought they were going to come in last even though the Flight Attendants had a speed bump. By the way that looked like a fun speed bump....painting an elephant, how cool!

The other What Were They Thinking part was when several teams misunderstood the directions for transporting the camel feed.

I couldn't find a picture of the girl (from the sister team) who carried the feed in her shirt but that was hilarious!

"Blind" U-Turn

I can't believe how everyone flip-flopped in position this episode! Those who came in last came in first, those who came in first came in last and all the way down the line. It was amazing. I guess that's why they call it the "amazing race", eh? hahah

I was proud of my team for pulling thru to the end and getting a third place finish. It was a tear jerkin' moment. I was bummed about Mike/Mel going from very first place to 2nd to last. I was sad- they tried really hard. Who knew stacking wood could be so complicated?! The biggest surprise was to see the BLONDES come in for a first place finish! WHAT? And they won motorcycles! What's a surgerically put together blonde going to do with a motorcycle? You know she'd never risk messing up all her procedures. At least her partner looked excited about it.

So Holly, did you anticipate your team being so diabolical? They were the only ones to apply the U-turn. And for what purpose you ask? Oh, so Lukie-poo's favorite redheads could stay in the race. Bah. BOOO. I saw next weeks episode how they outted themselves. Hopefully the other teams make them pay for it. Sorry, but honestly, the redheads need to learn to fend for themselves. The team that got U-turned had a chance i thought. It could have been close. But you just can't come back from a U-turn like that. Especially when both challenges were so complicated in their own right. Very frustrating. They were a strong team, but i guess that's why Margie and Luke decided to do them in. Couldn't handle the competition.

My favorite part of the entire episode was when Victor was on "tattlecam" commenting about the bobsled challenge. The Russian word they had to unscramble. He says, "Oh i just looked at the letters and instantly thought Chochev, i mean, Who doesn't know Chochev?!" Apparently he was the only one he even had a clue. Awesome. Gotta love the Asian intellect. Good job team!

Eliminated- this is for Holly

Episode 3 losers:

Brad and Victoria.

Just my luck

So i didn't watch episode 3 until today. I was a little confused by the comment of me picking a domineering man belittling his partner. NOW i understand! Victor was awful to his sister!! He should just be grateful that Victoria's team had worse luck. I still can't believe how long they followed those red and white markers! Amazing race is always red and yellow! Tammy kept trying to tell him... i was a wreck (sp?) watching that. My poor kids kept asking me if everything was ok. Anyway, just glad it's over. I hope Tammy and Victor have a special "family council" tonight and work out their differences so that next week will be better viewing "for my poor nerves."
Can you believe the Gay guys came in FIRST?! The old man with his poor, weak, muscles and his super skrannie son?! Unbelievable!
Can't wait for Sunday!
