I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts...!
On this episode, teams flew from Champagne, France to Mahe, Seychelles. They were all bunched up on the same plane because the island was fairly remote and very few flights even go there.
Once on the island, they had to take a number for a helicopter ride to a smaller island where they were faced with a detour: turtle toddle - get an old, huge turtle to run a race course while guiding them with a banana, then each grab a bunch of bananas and deliver them to the fruit guy - or - ox trot - load a lovely bunch of coconuts into a cart, then deliver it to the fruit guy by guided ox to get the next clue. Steve and Allie were the only ones to successfully complete the turtle task, while Carol and Brandy tried it but later switched. Three teams were not careful with their coconuts and were sent back by the fruit guy to retrieve the lost ones.
Next, the teams had to swim out to a boat which would take them to St. Pierre. While on the boat, they stopped in the middle of the Indian Ocean for the roadblock: dive down into the water, loosen a rope on a bottle, then bring the bottle on to the boat and finally swim to shore to assemble the map inside, which pointed the way to the pit stop.
Don't forget to check out last week's rankings by the fabulous kidflash to see how your favorite team is doing.
On to the list!!!
Rank. Names (last week's rank) -
1. Steve and Allie (2) - A near perfect leg, except for leaving their bags behind. We are finally getting to see more of them and I like them! They are a great parent/child team. Very encouraging and helpful to each other.
2. Dan and Jordan (4) - They had an near perfect leg as well, so I will give them props and move them up. They did well for the last two legs. I just wish the one's voice was not like nails on a chalkboard.
3. Jet and Cord (3) - Well, good gravy, they continue to lose points in Jims Casino! They are slipping... at both doing race tasks and on my lvoe list. I like them well enough, I'm just angry at them for making lots of dumb mistakes the last two legs, so they will stay down here.
4. Louie and Michael (1) - I told you last week was a one time shot at being in first place on my list. Now they go back down where they belong.
5. Carol and Brandy (5) - Hate them.
6. Caite and Brent (6) - Hate them more.
OK, now it's your turn.
I've been 2 Patched!
