The Amazing Race

Of all the reality shows, my favorite is The Amazing Race. :) The contestants get to travel all over the world looking for clues and solving the cryptic puzzles. Looks like Loads of Fun. :)
Was browsing the Channelnewsasia website... pleasant surprise to read that my Pilates Class Instructor and his fren won The Amazing Race Asia 2!!! : ) Well Done, dudes!! : )
Singapore team wins 'The Amazing Race Asia 2'

SINGAPORE : The team from Singapore has won 'The Amazing Race Asia 2'. Gym buddies Adrian Yap, 27, and Collin Low, 35, beat nine other teams in a race that started in Singapore and took them across four continents in 24 days. What is more amazing is Adrian is hearing-impaired, making it the first time in the Amazing Race history that a disabled person has emerged as a winner. Collin says his partner's disability actually proved to be an advantage. They communicated in sign language when they did not want others to know about their strategies. The Singapore pair edged out Malaysian sisters Vanessa and Pamela Chong, as well as hot favourites Marc and Rovilson from the Philippines, to win the US$100,000 prize. - CNA/de

Yay! They were great. What i liked best was the patience they showed to each other - none of that kiasu trait singaporeans are so famous for!
