I really liked the night restaurant.

Once again The Amazing Race has shown me a side of a country that I would never had known about.

The race is still educating me.

I liked all parts of this race except for the u-turns.

I HATE U-TURNS, and REALLY HATE DOUBLE U-TURNS.

I agree. This game should be about how well you can do, not how well you can sabotage other teams. And it's really sabotage, we've rarely seen someone come back from a U-turn.

Yeah..I know what you mean.

The U-turn needs to be seriously revamped.

What I'd love to see is something that I saw suggested a few years back.

Have the Double U-Turn board designed with a touch screen. When the team gets there, they touch their picture, and it shows them whether or not they were u-turned. Then, they are given the option of u-turning another team. They get no other indication.

If the team they choose to U-turn is in front of them, the U-turn doesn't count, but the team is unaware of that.

That removes the ability of teams to conspire like they did this episode. A team will not know if the team ahead of them actually did U-turn someone like they were supposed to do, and they wouldn't be able to U-turn that team ahead of them to burn the U-turn.

I have a trip planned to Milan in September, but it's only for a night and a day. Hmmm...that moving night restaurant sounds interesting. After that visit to Lake Como, I now want to extend my visit to Milan for an extra day.

Northern Italy is worth exploring for a month or two.

I agree. I have no plans to go to Italy, but if for some reason I do go that moving restaurant is on the top of my list.

What I really like is that you got to see the sights without the crowds.

Does not hurt to have great meals to boot.
