Amazing Race-In Lijiang China

I have to make this quick, the bachelor finale is in 10 minutes. Teams leave for China, except for some reason the Goths can't seem to find their way to the airport and miss the required flight to China.
Lijiang China looks so awesome, put on bucket list. The plane lands in Kumming, (which I heard means the city of eternal spring), ah that's why it looks so clean and beautiful.
The challenge has the teams riding yaks across the waterfalls, how fun, after which they race to the old city and make candy, Chinese style, with a wooden mallet. The candy looked like toffee with nuts, yum! Asian dad can't seem to stop eating this on this leg much to Christina's frustration, to which she says you can eat when we reach the rest stop. The roadblock has the teams collecting zodiac charms, reminiscent of the locks at the Great Wall challenge. Zev and Justin have a hard time doing this and get so far behind that the Goths catch up with them. Once the Goths catch up, it looked like they finally got out of their funk, but instead Vxysin completely loses her cool and they fall behind again. Christina and dad get on the wrong bus and when Christina tells the bus driver to stop in English, why isn't she speaking Chinese to the Chinese bus driver? So instead she jumps out. Luckily it wasn't going that fast.
First on the mat, Luke and Margie, but all teams find out they are still racing. I'm sure team Goth are spared elimination, even though they are now way behind because they leave their fanny pack on the gondola ride and have to go back.
