passport lost

It’s off to Cambodia on The Amazing Race!


Once the teams make it to Cambodia, they needed to make their way to the Foreign Correspondents Club to meet an Editor and whisper to them for their next clue. All of the teams left around 6:00pm Vietnam time and found out that there were no more flights that night to Cambodia. So, they had to spend all night in the airport until their flight left the next day at 12:25pm!

However, the last two teams had to wait until 2:15pm for their flight. And those last two teams were Lance & Keri and Justin & Zev. Now, I really like Justin & Zev but not so much for the other team. After waiting on standby for the early flight, both of the other teams made it on the same flight, pitting everyone against each other once again. But of course, Lance decided to be a jerk about it! Ugh, I hate him.

Wow! And Justin & Zev were the first team to arrive to at the FCC. But Sam & Dan were the first to get the clue from the assignment editors. Their clue had a photo of Jackie-O and they needed to use that photo to figure out their next destination, which was the Royal Hotel. Oh my goodness! So many of the people didn’t know that it was Jackie-O in the picture! They all thought it was some Queen! Haha.

Once the teams got to the Royal Hotel and found Jackie-O’s suite, they got their next assignment – a Detour. Their two options were Cover, where they had to sell 4 helmets to a family of four on a motorcycle, or Wrap, were they needed to find a shopkeeper at the Russian Market who would give them an intricate scarf and they would need to find a woman wearing an identical scarf somewhere in the market.

Justin & Zev were the first to make it to Royal Hotel and I’m so glad for them! I thought most people would choose the Cover choice but almost everyone chose Wrap! And Justin & Zev made friends with their cab driver so he was helping them the entire time. They found their scarf lady and then made their way to Wat Toul Tom Pong, a beautiful looking palace, for their next clue.

At the palace, the team had to complete a Road Block, where one team member had to dress like a monkey and act like one!! Zev was a pro at this! I love that he is not letting his disability get in his way. He’s so cute. But he seemed to have some trouble with the last task and kept falling off the log. Dan & Sam ended up completing the task a little fast and were the first to leave for the pit stop at Wat Phnom, a Buddha shrine.

Oh yay! Justin & Zev are Team #1!! But oh no, they lost Zev’s passport! And after overcoming last place and making it to first place, it’s just such a bummer! Luckily they made such a good connection with their driver because he met them to find Zev’s passport. The only way they could stay in the game was for them to find the passport and make it back before the last team arrived. Unfortunately, that did not happen and they were eliminated. I really wanted this team to win the whole thing!
