And we are on the air!
Previously on TAR, 7 teams traveled to the Norwegian town of Alesund! In the Riadblock, Matt climbed while at the FF, Becca & Floyd went down. At the DT, Vance & Ashton annoyed teams while Liz & Mike annoyed each other. Tara & Joey won the leg while Liz & Mike's Day got worse -  before it got better. 7 teams remain, who will be eliminated next?

Times available for departure are at the seventh hour (three times I believe: 7;05, 7:15, 7:25). Tara & Joey celebrate with a wine clink on the boat.

Back from the commercial break, Tara & Joey decide to not U-Turn!

DETOUR: Make A Mold or Grab A Hold
In MAM, teams must construct a ghost out of plaster wrapping a teammate to receive their next clue.
In GAH, teams must climb the face of a 90-ft rock to receive their next clue.

Liz & Mike U-Turn Vanck & Ashton!

Butcher and auctioneer want to pull a Twinnies U-Turn move and Becva & floydd follow through.

The plaster wrapping requires a teammate put on a plastic protective hoodie and place a mesh on the teammate for the plaster to successfully cover the body of the teammate.

Vanck & Ashton found the W-turn in last, so the 2nd U-turn wouldn't have matter whether it was used or not. It was just used for safety measures.

This cast is BRINGING IT which is great because the leg design is kinda awful?

RB - overnight bunch - pre-Detour U-Turn - wildly imbalanced Detour - Pit Stop and the boats are a better form of transportation than taxis so the main factor was how quickly you realized you wanted to rock climb :(

Not a fan of it, but the Twinnies U-Turn move is still one of the best strategies created until now on the race.
