In the Belly of the Earth - Teams continue racing in Slovenia, carefully travelling on foot carrying wooden pieces on their back, descending deep into a cave, assembling a giant dragon, and scraping off mussels and barnacles in the waters.
Enjoy the show!

Do they have to put the utensils on while wearing it?

They must dislike tourists…. Telling him it’s in Germany! He handled it very nicely though, saying I’ll think about that.

No. They need to attach everything and then put it on and carry it to that group.
The Postonja caves will be on my bucket list when I eventually make it to Slovania.

Anna Leigh decides to do this task…. This will be interesting. She is fast, but in her hurry, drops a top item.

Beards is still a happy guy. AL makes it next. Robbin still waiting for Chelsea, they are in last place right now.

Robbin is nice when Chelsea finally returns. Listening to her talking to the camera, I’m thinking this is a nice change!

Dragon puzzle. I love watching them decide how to start the puzzle. Brothers start from bottom.

There it is, couple is freaking out because of dad detour. She is gripping but just said in the beginning that they were getting along really well.

Stop and ask for directions, don’t keep driving in circles. This time it’s Chelsea being upset and Robbin is calm.
I know they have a ways to go yet, but it looks like Anna L and dad are going to make it another week at least. Since best friends Chelsea and Robbin are still searching for the caves.

Beards are doing well, constructing their dragon.
Greg and John pass! Yay!

AL and Dad are off and now beards give a great roar as they pass and run off to next task. I do enjoy the beards.

I also really like Rob and Corey, and hope they can hang in there. The brothers are also likable, so I have no problem with them getting 1st so many times, but I do hope Rob and Corey can get a 1st place soon too. Dang that Anna Leigh, bypassing Chelsea and then the married couple too. ugh. It seems like they all got a lot more sleep, or some counseling on being positive and nicer to each other (at least at first), but some of them are letting the stress get to them. If Anna Leigh can't get eliminated, then Robbin and Chelsea can go. That cave was super creepy! I wouldn't have felt very comfortable in there.

Rob and Corey may have to use that express pass.

The married couple are at it again. This time because they also didn't read the clue correctly.

Oh no, couple forgot their chains. They are making one mistake after the next. They may be the last team. If Robbin and Chelsea show up and choose scraping they could be neck and neck.

Aww, Phil standing in the sunset waiting for the last team. At least they went out with mostly good attitudes. I'm not sorry to see them go, however.
The married couple better get it together, though. Being in the back really shows how people handle stress (or don't handle it), and when they lash out at each other, I understand it but don't like watching that.
Sweden next! What fun places lately. I'm crossing my fingers for Rob and Corey to do some catching up, or that they use their Express Pass and take a 1st.

Racers read the clue! Damn, I was worried for Rob and Corey. Todd was funny with the chains though. Those caves we're magical, I'd of loved that challenge. AL was actually nice to her father, does she read posts? They did well.
Rob and Corey have the Express Pass, that puts them in the F3 I bet. Sweden next week, I imagine their scout has found some more amazing places. Robin and Chelsea knew they were last, so they went for a swim!

Another great episode. I'm sure my hopes top 3 is the same as everyone : Rob and Cory; the brothers; the mustache/beards. In that order for me...tho honestly I'd be ok with any of those 3 winning.

What's nice is if any of those three teams won, they'd be gracious about as would the teams that came in 2nd and 3rd. Gotta say, though, that my heart was won over in the first episode by Rob and Cory, and they've not yet disappointed me. They're always so supportive of one another and never get upset, even when things go wrong. Also, I tend to route for underdogs, and against the brothers, who keep winning everything in sight, both Rob and Cory and the Mustache/Beard are distinct underdogs.
I'd also like to see Rob and Cory win something---they've been second so many times and have never gotten frustrated by that.

This was a good episode for everyone, I liked them all. Well maybe rooting for Anna Leigh to lose but at this point I am happy with any of the teams winning. Even Chelsea and Robbin calmed down. I really was rooting for them to make it but doing the first task twice and then getting lost searching for the caves really hurt them. They also started last but there was only about 7 minutes separating Anna Leigh and Chelsea & Robbin. Chelsea got to the first task faster than AL but had to do it twice. You just can't be making that many mistakes when there are only 6 teams left and they all finished within an hour of each other the previous leg.
Navigation is key in NOT loosing time as is READING THE CLUE. I really do believe that communication is also key to winning and the teams that were the best doing that were the top three finishers. Notice no one had a tantrum or panic attack, they don't blame each other and can quickly pivot.
Only two teams didn't make any mistakes this episode and that would be Yellow Shirt Brothers and Beards.
This is the first time in years I don't have a favorite or a villain to root against. Maybe Anna Leigh's ugly side will rear it's head next episode and I will have someone to root against.
Really liked the way Chelsea and Robbin acted this episode and they had a great exit edit.
