The Amazing Race left us in Austria where Linda and Steve, covered in pie, were eliminated. Tammy/Victor were first out where they were told to head to Bucharest, Romania. As they drove the siblings began their episode long argument. Tammy felt that Victor was pushing her around and being too powerful, she’ll eventually crack just you wait. While the first few teams left, Tammy/Victor arrived at the airport where they got the first flight. Back on the train Amanda/Kris played it smart by befriending a local. Others seemed to use the same strategy as they had help booking flights. Too bad nobody else could get on the flight with Tammy/Victor though as they flew to Romania before anyone even arrived at the airport. Ok maybe not as the flight had issues, forcing them to return to Romania. Guess their lead wasn’t that big a deal after all. Everyone ended up leaving BEFORE their failed airplane, putting the siblings behind. Ok anyone else’s head spinning from the sudden turn of events?

It ended up that Tammy/Victor  landed on the same flight as the last few teams, could they suffer the Romber curse? Guess the airport drama is back as the first quarter is all about the planes. Victoria and Brad’s flight was canceled, thanks to fog, putting them a full day behind. Finally in Romania the other teams raced on and were off to the gymnastic Road Block. One team member would have to learn four gymnastics moves in order to move on and it was bound to be hilarious. Amanda was up first and did rather well. Margie had some issues though, since Luke wouldn’t wear a leotard but Mike would. Amanda/Kris were the first off to their next location but the other somehow caught up. They found that their train wouldn’t leave until the morning, allowing the others a chance to catch up and forcing them to sleep on the streets.

Last weeks Amazing Race 13 ended in India and this week did as well. Following the non-elimination leg all teams knew that someone was going home and the pressure was on for Ken and Tina especially. Leaving the pit stop the next morning the teams had to find an apartment building in New Deli that would give them their first task for the day. Nick and Starr landed at the Road Block first and read us the challenge. What one teammate had to do was run through an Indian festival, climb a latter, find a clue and return to their teammate. It sounds simple but oh was it crazy. The festival involved hurling colored powder and water at others, especially the racers. Each racer got pelted as they ran throughout the crowd and even some who weren’t doing the Road Block got painted as well!

Starr decided to do the Road Block for the siblings and she completed it rather quickly got surely got painted! As they read their clue one of the festival goers ran up to Nick and painted him with pink powder. They quickily left the area and were off to their next task. Toni/Dallas arrived next, beating out Kelly/Christy, and Dallas was able to quickily find the clue. He and Toni were then off to their next task at the Bird Hospital as well. Kelly and Christy arrived at the festival next and didn’t read their clue….. again. Kelly decided to do take the task, assuming that she had to run through the crowd and pull the clues one at a time and return to Christy. The task was actually to stay at the clues, find the right one and then return but by assuming she had to pull them one by one Kelly lost valuable time.
