TAR 28: Jessica Versteeg & Brittany Oldehoff – Instagram Models/Best Friends
Marionete:
The problem with the money was that they had run out of euros (local currency) and were left with only US dollars. They could've easily bought tickets using dollars at a counter, but that wasn't possible -- I suspect the train was about to leave and no more tickets were being sold. And buying tickets on the train was only possible with euros.

I think they should try to get in the train, ask any local there to exchange the money, even with not good exchange rate.
Marionete:
Yeah, I definitely think there were some more "extreme" solutions they could have tried, but then that's the main reason I didn't like this team - the seemingly lacking enthusiasm. :P
georgiapeach:
I think they were full of enthusiasm until that last leg when they were both running with the flu....

Brittany and Jessica were the third team eliminated on Season 28 of The Amazing Race.
After traveling the world together, friends Brittany and Jessica came up short during the latest episode of The Amazing Race, which meant host Phil Keoghan had to give them the disappointing news that their adventure was over.
While the Instagram models didn't proceed to the next leg of the journey, they each walked away from the mat a with a big grin and positive outlook on the whirlwind jaunt.
Read what Brittany had to say following her exciting experience on The Amazing Race.
1. Why didn't you run to the connecting train?
Brittany: "We didn't have tickets. We knew we weren't going to make the train whether we walked or sprinted."
2. If you could do the last leg over again, would you do anything differently?
Brittany: "It wasn't about this leg, in particular. If I could do the entire Race again, I wouldn't help anyone at all."
3. Do you think the other teams would've snubbed whichever pair was in last place?
Brittany: "I actually don't feel that way. Everyone knew we were really athletic and strong there. We definitely could sprint faster than almost every team there, but maybe one. I do, however, think that if Burnie and Ashley or Sheri and Cole were there when Jessica was [there], they would have helped her."
4. Do you still keep in touch with any of the teams?
Brittany: "I love all the teams [and] I understand it's a race. I spend a lot of time with the ones who live out here in L.A."
5. What was your favorite thing about being on The Amazing Race?
Brittany: "I got to travel the world with my best friend. We had an absolute blast!"
6. Which country was your favorite to visit this season?
Brittany: "Switzerland. I want to go back!"
7. Who are you rooting for to win?
Brittany: "I love Tyler and Korey and Burnie and Ashley!"
