Tonight the remaining teams race to Namibia on back-to-back episodes of The Amazing Race.
On the last episode of The Amazing Race the teams went to Monaco where they got fitted for some fancy formal wear. The next morning, the teams got dressed up and boarded helicopters. At the Road Block they had to spoil their partners by picking up two romantic gifts (flowers and chocolates). The best part was seeing the girls that stepped up to the plate to run around Monaco in dresses.
Steve finished first and got the next clue for the Casino de Monte Carlo. At the casino the teams gambled to chose their Detour. If the roulette table landed red they had to go to “Don’t Slack Off” and if it landed on black they had to go to “Win By a Nose.”
At “Win By a Nose” the teams had to make a perfume using a list of ingredients and their sense of smell. At “Don’t Slack Off” the teams had to zipline across a ravine two thousand feet in the air.
Driving through Monaco seemed to be hardest challenge of all as several teams had a hard time finding the Pit Stop. For the first time Hayley and Blair won, while Jeff and Jackie were eliminated.
The synopsis for ‘The Amazing Race’ season 26, episodes 7 and 8 are:
