Eight teams traveled around Phuket,
Thailand, riding elephants, diving for ceramic koi fish,
disassembling and reassemling small shrines and then taking a LONG
bus trip to Bangkok just to feed REAL koi fish. In the end, Amani &
Marcus (Team Hut-Hut!) won their first Leg and a trip to Bali. Liz &
Marie (Team Twin Grads) had to deal with a SPEED BUMP, giving ALL
their money to a cabbie, nearly missing their bus and having to BEG
to be driven around Bangkok before learning that it was all for
naught and they were eliminated. Seven teams continue their trek for
the million...who will be Philiminated NEXT?!!
