They were very very nice and really excited to meet fans. They were extremely friendly and excited to talk about their experiences and answer all of our questions.

We chatted for almost half an hour about all sorts of things on the race and it was really fun to hear their take on a lot of elements of the race and hear about moments that didn't make it onto the show. Even cooler to learn that Eric's lived about 10 minutes from where I live for a bit in the past.

A fair bit of travel to get there and a lot of walking in the rain afterwards but it was all completely worth it! Definitely an amazing experience and I'm thrilled to have met one of my favourite teams of all time! :hearts:

Could you do a recap of some of the race conversations? We'd love to hear some tidbits!

Sure thing! :) I will have to do it later tonight though. :bunny

Glamazon Racer:
They spoke about a lot of great things - I'll try to remember as much as I can:


* Nice to know that all of the teams are friends and the cast gets along. That's great to hear! <3
* They spoke about spending time learning the basics in so many languages to be able to communicate. Vietnamese was hardest for them. :P
* They took about nine tries at that Starting Line Task until they found the right compass! :o
* Before they even got to the Starting Line Task, it was about a 2 kilometre run if I recall correctly, so Rona said she was exhausted and couldn't think by the time they got there.
* Treasuri & Louisa had a big fight that wasn't aired. :lol:
* They had a lot of production difficulties in Singapore, which is how they fell behind. :(
* They were a little disappointed that their season didn't take them to other parts of the world but still thought the experience was incredible and life-changing. <3
* Eric carried most of Rona's belongings. :lol: (Rona: You gotta use it or lose it! *points at muscles* :funny: )
There's probably a bit more - I'll list them when I think of them! :conf:
