Just when you thought it might never happen, Terri and Henry (T*H) were eliminated from the race. I was relieved for our tired crew because we had been waiting a lot of extra hours for this team to arrive in several legs now. I don't have a problem with a team taking a long time to reach pit stop, but when they decide to stop being competitive and treat the race like a casual city tour, then I must say I do get a little "irked." On the other hand, maybe some teams just "race" really slow. And for that, I apologize to Terri and Henry if it is the latter. What do you think?
This leg of the race through Prague was a lot of fun because we had the opporutunity to spend even more time inside this beautiful city.
I sure was craving an "ice, cold frosty one" after seeing this huge beer bottle advertisement floating down the river.
Working with the local production team was a blast too. We had a lot of fun seeing the teams race their way through the town. Our pit stop for this leg was perched on top of a serene garden offering a scenic view of the city skyline.
The leg was particularly interesting because we introduced the "Intersection" for the first time. If you didn't see the show, this is basically where one team has to wait for another team to arrive before completing a task. Poor Paula and Natasha had the unenviable position of having to wait for Terri and Henry to arrive, which wouldn't happen for quite a few hours later. However, Paula and Natasha handled the situation perfectly from waiting for the other team to arrive to finishing ahead of them to the pit stop. After the Intersection, it should have been a neck-to-neck race to the pit stop. Of course, Henry and Terri seem to get lost at every opportunity and ended up last once again.
"Third Time's a Charm"...for most people. But for Terri and Henry, it was the end of the road (and race) for them. I wonder if Paula and Natasha would've still been so happy and cheerful if they ended up coming in last and getting eliminated in this leg after waiting so long for Terri and Henry? Probably
There's always a lot of happy faces after the leg of the race is completed, and we even finished this time to catch the sunset! Thank you, Terri and Henry for that!
Now, a "little bird" told me that the third season of The Amazing Race Asia is almost officially On! So if you think you got what it takes to join the race of a lifetime, then make sure you continue to tune into AXN for more information on the "Call to Entry" to apply. Also, stay glued to to this current second season to not only find out who ultimately wins but also to pick up on valuable strategies on what to do (and not to do) if your team is selected!
Good Luck and Have a Great Weekend!
