Hectic in Hong Kong








Thank God it's a non-elimination leg.

From Taiwan to Hong Kong. Yes, you read it right. The remaining teams went to Hong Kong for the 6th leg of the race. First, they headed to King's Park Sports ground to get their clue. But to get it they must get through a rugby field while a rugby team was playing there. Tricky!

Next, a Detour. This time they must choose between Get Fishy or Get Lucky. In Get Fishy, teams must clean, scale and gut 15 fishes before they can get their next clue. In Get Lucky, teams must bite open 300 fortune cookies and find the right fortune before they can get their next clue. All teams picked Get Lucky except for Henry & Bernie who chose Get Fishy. Get Fishy looks a little bit difficult than Get Lucky but since Henry is a chef, so I guess they didn't have any major problem with the task.

Then came a Roadblock. In this Roadblock, teams must pick one handbag from a selection of handbags hanging from the clue box and find a woman who is carrying a matching handbag in the Ladies Market. A little bit tricky since the place was crowded with people. Sam & Vince were lucky since they arrive a little bit early and there was still not so many people there. After they find the woman, they will get their next clue which told them that they must head for the pit stop at Blake Pier in Stanley Bay.

First to arrive at the pit stop were Sam & Vince, followed by Henry & Bernie, Geoff & Tisha and A.D. & Fuzzie. The last team to arrive was my favourite team, Ida & Tania. I was so sad! But like I said, thank God it's a non-elimination leg. Ida & Tania was still in the race but they were asked to give up all their money. I wonder how can they survive without money?

I still couldn't figure out who will win this race. It looks like all the teams have equal chance of winning this. Henry & Bernie, consistent. Sam & Vince, getting better and better. Geoff & Tisha, they have learned to work together (and of course there's the LOVE factor, lol). A.D. & Fuzzie, they proved they don't have to run to still be in the race. Last but not least, Ida & Tania, they are determined, strong-willed women and they showed us the true meaning of friendship.

I think the teams will fly farther in the next leg, Europe maybe?

Hi, been following TARA since season 1. bravo to our M'sia teams. envy to the rest of them heh!

Hate comment on Henry at AXN site posted by one fool saying H is a gay. is the fool a gay by the way?

it's very normal as a human to react the way Henry did after being "Yield"ed. it's human reaction. mayb the fool is not a human afterall.

Go Henry & Bernie. Love them.

We all here to support you!!!
