The Bachelor, London Calling-Final Two

The last three dates takes place in Barbados. What dream dates. So gorgeous! Shayne is the first date with Matt, meeting him at the beach wearing a big floppy hat and big sunglasses. She's like a cross between Jayne Mansfield and Marilyn Monroe. Her and Matt spend the day in the water jet skiing and swimming. Looks like so much fun. There is even a water trampoline where Shayne shows off her gymnastic abilities. They look like they were having a great time. At dinner, Matt wants to see if there is a serious, intellectual side to Shayne. Careful Matt, you can't have it all in one package, sex kitten and rocket scientist. At dinner, Matt asks Shayne if she is knowledgeable of the world or is she just putting on a show, like when she asked "Are there palms trees in London?" After the dinner, Matt of course hands her the fantasy suite card which she reads and of course accepts. The suite looked awesome. If I were reading the fantasy card to Matt, just for kicks, I would have read, sorry guys the fantasy suite is under repair, you have to sleep on the beach! ha!
For his next date, Matt describes Amanda as a great prankster, having great parents and simply stunning. Did he call anyone else stunning? No! Amanda and Matt do a zip line activity, which looks really fun and is the perfect choice for athletic Amanda. Amanda says she's afraid of heights, so I thought she would start hiccuping like crazy, but she managed to control it, good girl! Amanda reminds me that she could be related to Maria Schriver, you know Mrs. Arnold Schwarzenegger?
She too accepts the fantasy suite without skipping a single beat, Amanda, not Maria.
The final date is with Chelsea. Matt was displeased that she came off in the beginning of the date, cold and distant. He said all that ground they covered from the last date was gone and that he would have to start all over. Chelsea was acting really stand offish and didn't look like she was having any fun swimming with the turtles and fishes. That turtle was really friendly, letting Matt touch it and swim really close to it. It reminded me of when we were in Hawaii and we swam with the turtles. They wouldn't have anything to do with us, but it was really amazing. Chelsea on the other hand was off swimming in the distance, leaving Matt to comment that he was getting more attention from the turtles than Chelsea. Ya think? Chelsea's definitely a cold fish! At dinner, Chelsea said that she was afraid to be close to him because she's afraid of getting hurt. Hello, you signed up for this gig! You knew what you were getting into. To prove that she really digs Matt at the fantasy suite, she slips into something black and lacy and throws her panties to the wayside. There's no guessing if they did the naughty there.
By the way, did you notice how many times they showed the Hilton sign? ABC must have gotten discounted rooms for the free advertisement.
In the end, I thought he would say goodbye to Chelsea, since she is not very giving of herself, but in the end he sends a tearful Maria Schriver, I mean Amanda away. Now I had a suspicion that Amanda would be the last woman standing, since people have been searching our blog to see if Amanda won the Bachelor. Well, now my suspicion is dispelled. It's not Amanda. It's between Chelsea and Shayne who in two weeks go to London to meet his parents. Looks like a very stuffy encounter and I can't wait to see who he chooses. My guess, just simple observation- WARNING SPOILER HERE! The ring looks like it is placed on Shayne's hand, she always wears her nails short with clear nail polish, where Chelsea always wears black or dark nail polish. I could be wrong here, but that was just an observation. My thoughts in reality, Shayne is too young at 22 and an aspiring actress. Can Matt deal with that and her immaturity, not to mention her love of purses, sunglasses, and hats? Chelsea on the other hand is a better match, but can he put up with someone whose not very affectionate and doesn't even like to hold hands? I like Shayne better, but I think I'm the one better suited for Matt than anyone there, so Matt...Call me!
Next week's episode is the reunion bitterfest, with the returning bachelorettes, sure to be full of spiteful attacks. Two weeks till the finale. Can't wait!-Single D
To be in Barbados walking on the beach swimming in the surf, oh sorry, I'm supposed to be blogging on the Bachelor! OK, so Matt is there, and I'm here :( First up is Shayne on the beach, not me, don't worry about me, I'll get over it. Where else would you go for a date in Barbados? The beach! Shayne shows up and they do the jetski, water trampoline thing. Matt says he wants to see the intelligent Shayne. She may be smart about some things but an intellectual she ain't. Matt also keeps calling her his "little monkey". That to me is a pet name for a little kid not a potential mate. Shayne does act like a little kid sometimes. She tells Matt she is falling in love with him and, not to miss the moment, gives her the fantasy suite card which she happily accepts. The camera fades out showing the two of them in the suites swimming pool in a lip lock. Aren't those two water logged by now?
Matt takes Amanda zip lining. Hey, I just did that in Mexico (see Gone Cruisin' below)! They are both afraid of heights and Matt thinks it's sexy to face their fears together. I could think of a lot more sexy things to do than being afraid! At dinner Amanda stammers over her words with every other word being "like". Amanda practically dives for Matt when he gives her the fantasy suite card. At least it's a different room than the one he had with Shayne.
Chelsea goes out on a catamaran with Matt. Matt was looking for romance and Chelsea wasn't biting. Chelsea better warm up or no fantasy suite for her! After a day swimming with the turtles and sailing on the boat they go to dinner where Matt just comes out with it and asks her what's up? She finally lays her emotions on the table and a happy Matt gives her the fantasy suite card. In the suite, Chelsea, her walls down, gushes her feelings and, so there was no doubt, surprises Matt by changing into a lacy black nightie sans panties.
The bootie call complete, it's time for the roses. Matt keeps Shayne and Chelsea leaving Amanda to mend her broken heart. As Matt says goodbye to Amanda, I got the feeling like she wanted to like hit him like. She can like go back to like Florida and like squeeze some like oranges. Matt is SO picking Shayne! Double D
