They say it is life changing and best thing you can do for your relationship with someone. Ty says he feels like they are there because of the people who helped them around the world. Eric and Jeremy finally arriving now to cheers from the others. They are team #2. The others cheer but they don't look too happy as Eric waves. Phil says they are, without a doubt, one of the most competitive teams they've ever had. Phil wants to know where the frat boys nickname came from and they say they are NOT frat boys. They say they were hoping to win so they wouldn't have to work their crappy jobs anymore but looks like they'll be back to waiting tables. E/J appreciating their chance to travel the world. Ray and Yolanda arriving now to cheers from the others. They are team #3. Yolanda cheers. Phil says he's pleased to see them smiling. Phil says, "You're not moving out?" She says no and the hippies ask when they are getting married. Yo says, "Not today!" Phil notes that there is love there. Ray says she is the only person he would have done this race with and they hug and Yolanda is choked up. Phil congratulates them on being the final three teams and the others give them a big round of applause. BJ/Ty saying it's great to stay positive and enjoy each other's company and that's what got them through. Ty also adds something here but I missed it. [Sorry!] And we leave with all the teams cheering and clapping.

Oops, I got knocked offline for a bit. I'm also happy for BJ and Tyler. They were great racers. I do feel bad for Eric and Jeremy because they were right there all along. I wish they could have been better sports about coming in second but they definitely deserve praise for the race they ran. I'd have been happy if Ray and Yolanda had pulled out a win but I think these last two legs showed where they were weak. Still, it's great that they were such good sports about coming in third and I do hope this race helped their relationship.

I will see you at Big Brother Raen. This is the first race ending that I wasn't nervous about because I liked all 3 of the finalists. I am happy for the hippies.

This was a great TAR Season! I loved it that Hippies won. The Frat boys played a great game and pushed right to the end and made it exciting. And, Ray and Yolanda were a great team too.

I loved that the hippies acknowledged the importance of their connections with people. At the end of the day, that's all that really matters. HICKS AND HIPPIES ALL THE WAY!!!

i couldn't believe eric and jeremy when they had to carry the maiden 1/3 of a mile. one of them said it wasn't too bad and the other said, "wait til we've gone half a mile"...if they go half a mile, haven't they overshot their destination? LOL

Raen, I too noticed E/J's behavior. I don't think they acknowledged BJ and Tyler at all for several minutes. I'm so happy for the Hippies. They've been my favorites all along because they remind me so much of younger days in the 70s and they're just nice guys.

it was kind of funny that each team seemed to think the guy in the scarf WAS achiko. achiko is the famous akita who waited at the train station for his master every day til the akita's death. the master had died one day at work and never got off the train to come home. the dog waited for him every day for years...according to legend. we used to have an akita and he was very faithful and very good to our then 2-year-old son, but he was too aggressive with strangers. we gave him to an akita breeder in the auburn, california area.

I'm happy that the hippies won. That's the first time my favourites have won. I would have been happy if Ray and Yolanda won, too. I just didn't like the frat boys' attitude.
