Amazing Race-Goodbye Team Asia

Rule of the game:

READ THE CLUE CAREFULLY!

That is the cardinal rule to this game and to get eliminated because you didn't follow the clue is dumb, dumb, dumb! Take that walk of shame. Never mind you survived paddling in a dish on the water, never mind you built a Norwegian tent, never mind you mastered the game of Russian bowling, but to get eliminated because you didn't read the clue correctly, duh! Man that's gotta smart! How disappointing! Kevin was just too wet behind the ears and didn't have that smarts that come with age to READ the clue in its entirety. Well, it was a good effort, but we knew they weren't going to win, it's amazing enough that dad managed as long as he did. So gung hay fat choy to you.

This episode, the challenges looked simple enough, playing the accordion, how hard could that be, certainly if you managed to listen to a hall of pianos in the last challenge, mastering playing a single accordion can't be that hard, right? Well, finally, Kat and Nat showed some intelligence (aren't their teeth white?) by using the numbering system to play the accordion. Nice squeezing! I had to laugh when Mallory said she couldn't see the key over her big red nose. I probably would have done the spinning, isn't it every child's fantasy to spin plates in a circus. I remember as a child watching the Ed Sullivan Show (am I dating myself?) and he would have plate spinners, I think the guy was a comic cause he would let the plates almost fall off. The spinning plates looked hard and frustrating. Never mind that the clowns were so annoying! Didn't Russia look amazing? Put on bucket list!

The two strongest teams are Nat and Kat and the TV hostess, looks like there might be a good chance of an all girl team winning this season. Oh why didn't Donna and I try out, we mighta had a chance!!-Single D
