I can't wait to watch! To go with the theme of Poland tonight, I will be pouring myself a shot of vodka every time Phil reveals a placement to a team at the Pit Stop. (Also, I'm having kielbasa with brown rice for dinner. :tup:)

Present! :yess:

I'm hoping for good Internet throughout my time on watching the episode, and I hope this will be a great leg! :hearts:

Meanwhile, what if this is another keep-on-racing leg? :stare Because Legs 4 and 6 were, but 8? ??? Probably unlikely. :lol:

A lot of talk of being prepared -
Did Justin and Diana just get another hour lead?

At least this app is giving us a chance to see all the teams at the starting location.

Cool detour choices. Looks like the Green Team is getting salty.

Is anyone else updating?

DETOUR: (Mine or Music)
In Mine, teams have to travel to Kiecswiza Salt Mine and deliver a timber log to a miner. After that, teams must load a cart with salt an roll the vehicle across the tracks to receive their next clue.
In Music, teams have to first accompany a violinist by playing a piano. After understanding the knack, teams must roll the piano to an intersection and play to collect 100 Polish klotys to receive their next clue.

The second rush of teams on flight 2 arrive in Krakow and pick up their clue on the bottom of their pool. Some teams find their taxis, others are stranded.

Kelsey & Joey, James Earl & Denise, Tiffany & Krista are doing Music.

Justin & Diana, Tanner & Josh, Logan & Chris are doing Mine.

Kelsey & Joey, Logan & Chris, and Tanner & Josh are looking for taxi. Logan & Chris crosses the street and gets a taxi. Kelsey & Joey also gets a taxi. Tanner & Josh are last. "What is this?"

Looks like we need to update...

So far:
Teams used a travelocity app to book flights from Amsterdam to Krakow, Poland.
In Krakow's boat/pool teams needed to dive in to the pool to obtain the next clue.
Detour is Mine or Music...

Justin&Diana are ahead doing Mine.
While everyone is just getting their clue to the detour after arriving on the same flight to Krakow.
All the teams seem unable to get a taxi.
Logan&Chris got a taxi to the Mine detour.
Kelsey&Joey got a taxi to the Music detour.
Tanner&Josh still looking for a taxi.
I missed where Krista&Tiffany and Denise&James Earl went. Sorry...

Commercial Break.

Can anyone explain the detour choices or where did Krista&Tiffany and Denise&James Earl go?

I like how teams are almost all bunched up by the 2nd flight, but I don't like the fact that 1 team is far ahead. It makes the leg winner too predictable.

Meanwhile, we seem to have interesting detour choices this leg. I think I'll like (or love) the detour. :yess:
