Before I start, I want to apologize for the blurry pictures. I can't find nicer pics from the official site. I don't know what happen to the photographer. Thankfully we still got pics (although they are video cap) so we have to be grateful. ;-)
Okay, move on with the race. First thing teams gotta do in this leg was delivering 2 bags of fishes (ornamental fish, not dead fish for eating) to a designated pet shop. After that, they must make their way to Macau by ferry and then travel by pedicab to the fountain in Senado Square for their next clue.
The next clue stated that they need to go to Macau Tower and there was also a Yield ahead. Sam & Vince who were 1st arrived at the Yield chose not to use the Yield but Geoff & Tisha who arrived there 2nd yielded Henry and Bernie. Henry seemed really pissed off while Bernie seemed calm. Good girl Bernie!
At the Macau Tower, teams must perform a Roadblock, which was (one of the team member) to climb the tower to retrieve the next clue. After that, they must make their way to the Dragon Boat Pier at Sai Van Lake. At the lake, teams must paddle a dragon boat around the buoy in the lake and return to the pier.
Next, a Detour. Teams must choose between Dance or Chance. In Dance, teams must learn and complete a lion dance routine while in Chance, teams have to dress in formal attire and play a blackjack game in which they must win it 9 times and spell the word COMPLETED in order to get their next clue (they will be given one letter each time they win). All teams chose Chance while only Geoff & Tisha chose Dance, which in my opinion was a wise decision.
After that, they must make their way to A-Ma Culture Village which was the pit stop of this leg of the race. But before that, they must complete a task which was to arrange 12 lanterns, which were painted with animals from the 12 Chinese Zodiac, in a correct order. Geoff & Tisha were 1st to arrive at the pit stop followed by Sam & Vince, A.D. & Fuzzie, Henry & Bernie and lastly, Ida & Tania, making this their 2nd time to arive last at the pit stop. However, this leg was a predetermined non-elimination leg and therefore they were not eliminated. Thank God again! I would be so devastated if they were eliminated. However, Ida & Tania must arrive first in the next leg or they will have to take a 30-minute penalty.
Geoff & Tisha won themselves a Sony Bravia TV and a Sony Playstation 3 each for winning this leg. OMG, I want them too!!! In this episode, we can also see the tension that building up between Geoff & Tisha and Henry & Bernie. There were also some funny moments, one of them was when A.D & Fuzzie wore the formal attire to play the blackjack. Bernie kept teasing them and it was so funny. They look hot though. ;-D
One of the anonymous visitor to this blog also alerted me on the nasty comments that have been popping up on the official TARA site. C'mon guys, it was just a race. I know everyone being patriotic and all that stuff but please try to avoid hate comments. It's not healthy....
I wonder if Ida & Tania will survive the next leg? I hope they did. Can't wait for Thursday.
