In this Roadblock, one team member had to climb to the top of the highest
ski jump in Scandinavia and then ride a zipline 1,000 feet to the bottom to
receive their next clue. Electing to take the plunge for their Teams, Jon
and Kristy jogged up the steps of the imposing ski jump. At the top, a
worried Kristy exclaimed, "I'm deathly afraid of heights. I don't do things
like this." While Kristy fretted, Jon soared through the air on the zipline
to the ground below, where Kris cheered. Opening their clue, the
long-distance dating couple learned they must drive over 50 miles to the
village of Brandbu and find a traditional Viking village for their next
Route Marker. With sister Lena screaming support, a petrified Kristy
overcame her fear and completed the task soon after Jon. |

In the grassy field, Teams didn't fare much
better at the Viking games. The Kubb caused problems for Jonathan & Victoria
and Meredith & Maria as both Teams knocked over the king in the center
before knocking down the surrounding logs, forcing them to start over. Adam
& Rebecca became frustrated enough to change course yet again, returning to
the roller skis. Gus & Hera finished the Kubb and wisely chose for Hera to
throw the axe, letting Gus, with better aim, to shoot the arrow into the
target. Freddy & Kendra, Don & Mary Jean and Jonathan & Victoria did not
consider this, forcing Kendra, Mary Jean and Victoria to struggle with the
bow and arrow. After Gus shot a bull's eye, he and Hera opened their next
clue instructing them to drive 15 miles to Nesheimstunet Village, a
1,000-year old traditional Norwegian farm and Pit Stop for this leg of the
race. |
