Souvlaki - Teams travel to Halkidiki, Greece, where they are tested on their spelling and memory skills.
Enjoy the show!

Kim and Penn along with Former flight attendants are fist to leave. I'm not a fan of the flight attendants, but they are doing well. They even got the stick shift hang of it and off they go.

Greece is beautiful. They have to grab the clues in the olive trees and basically provided ladders for everyone. Most jumped to get the clue, but Penn basically reached up.
Nat and her dad start off 1/2 hour after the 4th team, but pass them during the leaf rolling. Now I hope they don't screw up with the navigation.

That place is SO pretty.
And this food looks good, unlike that maggoty cheese from last week...

Yay, Kim finished first! Smart of her to double check and make sure she was rolling them correctly.

I love Souvlaki! We had the best Greek restaurant near our military base in Germany.

Kim pays attention and notices the veins have to be on the inside. She gets a check, then notices they are not arranged as perfectly as they should be three rows of 20. She rearranges and gets her pass. Boys are close behind them. Arun and Natalia are next. Arun Perfectly rolls the leaves.
Flight attendants are struggling, because Raquel is not aware of why hers are not rolled correctly.

Kim and Penn correctly spelled, but they don’t get a clue because they through out the important part. 😂

Nat can't spell souvlaki!
I am impressed by Penn. He did that challenge on the first try.
The twins are totally lost and can't find the souvlaki stand, but they did find the pit stop!

Damn, Penn is good! That task is going to be painful for a few of these people.

So Ryan is the smart one? Geeze. He couldn't be paying less attention and then takes off after only hearing about 5 saints and tries to BS his way out of it.

This girl is gagging on the souvlaki more than she did on the maggot cheese last week!
Twins missed the clue in their wrapper and eating it twice...and gagging even more. OMG.

Flight attendants are 2nd, Ryan and Dusty are 3rd and Nat and her dad are lost once again, but manage to scrape into 4th.
Twins are last and jump in the water to celebrate! They were much better after the break.

Everyone makes the same mistake, the clue is on the bottom. Please pay attention to instructions!
Fleight attendants come in second. Ryan and Dusty are third. Natalia gets the saints all right and they are off to find the pit stop. But have trouble finding it. They make it as team 4. Twins are now listening to the priest talk about the saints. Twins are last and eliminated.

Twins have me crying! They are so grateful, thankful to have been on Amazing Race…… and jump in the water.

Greece looked so lovely. Spell Souvlaki! The clue in the wrapper was sneaky. The saints roadblock was hard . Penn crushed it though. He's really good, they deserved first place. Flight attendants second Dusty and Ryan third. Arun and Natalia barely made 4th. Had the twins found the clue sooner, they would have been 4th. I bet that water felt beautiful...

Greece was beautiful. Did I miss something in the wording of the clue about the souvlaki challenge that was a hint for them to find their clue in the wrapper?
I haven't minded the varied start times until I noticed today that generally by now they've had some equalizers of flights/trains/etc. I think when they switched countries they should have let them off the plane like normal and see how they went.

Another great episode. The twins had a great exit - but I am not sad to see them gone as that puts my top 4 teams into the top 4! Not sure that has ever happened for me before. I would be happy with any of these teams winning! Go all of them! I never put Nat and Arun into my top 3 but only bc I didn't think they would make it this far! I am happy I was wrong!

I can't believe how many of them have never heard of Souvlaki. That episode made me want to go get some. Penn with the saints challenge was impressive. I never liked the twins, so glad they're out. Now if we can get rid of the flight attendants, there won't be anyone left that annoys me. Can't believe Arun and Natalia are still in this...they are so bad at this game.

Brandon’s Greek so I had better know what souvlaki is. I’m loving this season so much. And I’ll be sad when it’s all over. There aren’t any teams I really disliked (minus the dude who kept criticizing his wife). It wouldn’t disappoint me if any one of these teams were to win.

I wonder what it said that "clued" her in!

It felt like part of the road block requirements were to stand there and listen to the entire lecture. Obviously it wasn’t required, but it seemed a bit different than watching a demonstration as long or short as you want until you’re ready to perform the task. And actually I think it probably helped Ryan to cut it short the first time because he got to hear all five questions sooner, and then knew what to pay attention to when he listened to the lecture the second time. Happy for Penn and Kim. They’re fun to watch and seem to be having a great time together.

Why is she gagging eating that good food?  Yay Kim and Penn! She says she doesn't like onions and has never eaten them before but they are in the sandwich/souvlaki.
