Amazing Race Can I Get a Hot Tub S26 E9

We are down to five teams and this week they are off to Amsterdam.

They arrive and head straight to their first clue. Since they will be in another costume, Tyler reminisces.

Tyler Amazing Race

RoadBlock

Amazing Race Amsterdam

They must go to a Klompen shop (you know those clogs!) and find a matching pair. Jenny finishes first.  Next they have to ride a bike to their next destination.  Mike and Rochelle finish next.

Blair makes a match now.  Matt and Ashley were first to arrive but now that Hailey and Blair are done, they are the last still there, so far.  He is getting frustrated and so is Ashley. There are hundreds of shoes, looks hard that’s for sure.

Next thing you know he is holding a MATCH but he doesn’t even realize because he is looking at factors OTHER than the design.  He needs to just look at the DESIGN!!! He puts it away!!  🙁   Oh man I feel bad for them, will he ever find it again and know that it is a match?

Matt Amazing Race

DETOUR Soak or Shuffle

Laura and Tyler make it to the clue box first, Phil is there.  Soak is where they would navigate the canals in a hot tub boat and look for clues to solve their next clue!  Shuffle, they must play the Dutch version of shuffleboard. I would totes go for the Soak!

Bike Ride

Well surprise, surprise Hailey is at it again.  She keeps yelling,  “Blair, Blair, wait, Blair, wait!” Over and over and over and over and over again!  The funny part – he is literally like 10 feet in front of her.  Damn this chick is so irritating.  LOOK:

Blair Hailey Bike Ride

He then slows way down and they ride next to each other, then she starts telling him to hurry up!!

Matt is still looking for the matching klompen.  He goes back to look at the original and he finally gets it!  He sees the lines, he goes back and BOOM he finds it!! Just like that!

All the sudden Blair and Hailey are lost on bikes, because Blair asked a guy and then thought he knew what was up.  Hailey is doin’ her thang and ripping on him non-stop. Fun times.  Can’t wait til she sees this on TV.  I would be the same way with my hubby but not a person I just met, lol.

Laura and Tyler are almost done with their hot tub ride.  Tyler says he wants to pee in it and Laura says she already did, but she is kidding!  It is a funny moment!

Pitstop

Teams must figure out that they need to go to the ice skating rink.  Laura and Tyler are the first to arrive!  Second first place in a row! I hear wedding bells!  Phil does too!

Laura Tyler take First

Back to Hot Tubbing

Jelani and Jenny are collecting clues, Hailey and Blair are just behind them.  Jenny and Jelani get to the end and don’t know what the clue means.  They must go back through.

Shuffleboard

Matt and Ashley show up at the shuffleboard game.  They are not far behind.  Mike and Rochelle are still playing.  Rochelle pretty much kicks ass on her part, then Mike who must score at least 16 points gets 15.  They must start over and get a combined score of 51.

Hot Tub

Hailey and Blair figure it out by the end of their ride down the canal. They are on their way, #TeamJJ are still on their second go around.

Mike and Rochelle finish and they are on their way to the Pitstop

Matt is now killing it at shuffleboard!  They will be outta here in no time.

Matt plays shuffleboard

He gets 42 points!  All Ashley needs to get is 9 points.

Meanwhile, Jenny and Jelani get through their second hot tub run and they still don’t know the entire clue.  They must go through again. NO WAIT …. They ask a guy on the street and HE figures it out!

Matt and Ashley finish after their second try and can I just say I LOVE this group of Dutch men that are cheering them on, I want to hang with them!
