Amazing Race thoughts

I'm not a fan of Amazing Race but I caught part of amazing race 5 on tv this afternoon and i saw the couple colin and christie taking a cab to the kilimanjaro airport. On the way the taxi they were on got a flat tire and colin was furious. To make matters worst there was no spare tire. Luckily they got one from another team passing by. At the airport, colin didn't want to pay the 100 bucks and ended up in the police station explaining himself while christie was prompting him to not waste time. The situation was really tense. So much drama. But i had to go study and didn't catch what happened later. Also, i saw chip and kim who turned out to be such an amazing couple. One of their stops was in tanzania and chip was greeting people with a big smile. He was so happy to see them and to be in such a beautiful place. On the taxi to the airport, he also had this casual attitude and this philosophy that you can only receive if you give. So i wanted to find out more about this married couple and checked out here They are strong christians, no wonder they acted this way. I also saw a video in the link about them saying that throughout the whole race, they couldn't think of any unchristian acts that they did. What an amazing statement to make especially in this competitive race. While the rest of the teams were having so much drama and i cringed just by looking at them, this couple was just smooth sailing all the way to the end. And God really blessed them as they became winners. Even in the video clips, you could see them boldly speaking about their philosophy and having such a positive attitude about the whole thing while videos of other teams were all focused on winning(boring). Yup, they deserved to win. And one more thing, they are such a model couple even after 2 decades of being married. I just long for such a model relationship if i have one. You gotta see what they say in those videos.
