The Amazing Race 27×07, “Full Speed Ahead, Captain!” just finished airing! Read our recap to find out which team got eliminated.
After 18 attempts, Denise and James Earl finally complete their Detour from the previous leg. Lucky for them, it was a non-elimination leg. Josh and Tanner decided to go site seeing in Paris before leaving, which means that they have to take the last train of the day, putting them behind some of the others.
Cindy and Rick also make an error when they miss their stop and have to switch trains, but since the first challenge doesn’t start until the next morning, everyone has time to catch up.
In the morning the teams must take a water taxi to Kinderdijk Windmill Village to search for the next clue. The green team leaves first and starts arguing almost immediately.
Road Block
At the Road Block the teams must search different windmills for a matching copy of Van Gogh’s “Sunflowers,” and then bring it to a painter for approval. The challenge ends up being a lot more physically difficult than the teams expected because of the amount of running they have to do back and forth from the windmills.
Kelsey and Joey are the first to complete the Road Block, followed by Cindy and Rick, and Tiffany and Krista.
Fit Bit
The teams must calculate their highest heart rate recorded by their FitBit and deliver that number of tulips in order to receive the next clue. Kelsey and Joey continue their lead and are very excited about being ahead of Justin and Diana, finally. Cindy and Rick, and Tiffany and Krista, also continue to stay right behind them.
Detour
At the Detour the teams have to choose between learning to jump Double Dutch or using a V-Step simulator to navigate Rotterdam’s busy shipping channel. Kelsey and Joey are the first to arrive at Ship and are amazed at how lifelike it is. They fail their first try, and as they go in for their second try, Justin and Diana arrive.
Tiffany and Krista decide to try their hand at Double Dutch and it only takes them two attempts to finish, putting them in first place. Justin and Diana finish the Ship challenge, which puts them in second place, followed by Joey and Kelsey.
The rest of the teams get stuck doing multiple attempts with the ship simulator.
Pit Stop
The teams must make their way to the Peace Palace by train to check in at the Pit Stop. Justin and Diana come in first place and find out that Fit Bit is going to turn their steps into $31,873.
2nd place: Kelsey and Joey
3rd place: Tiffany and Krista
4th place: Tanner and Josh
5th place: Logan and Chris
6th place: Denise and James Earl
Cindy and Rick are the last team to arrive and are eliminated from the race.
