Q & A :)

I got these questions and thought I might try to answer them here...

1. How long does it take to get back into "the routine" after the Race?
Back into a routine? I'm not a big fan of "routine" anyway, so for me, life was still pretty crazy and hectic straight after the Race. I guess when I finally returned to my home in Australia for short while was when things started to feel a bit more normal.

2. What were your reactions watching TARA2 on TV for the
1st time was it like? I've always wondered if there were incidents or
comments that you hadn't been privy to that made some light bulb go off
in your head, like "Oh, *that's* why they fell behind/got ahead/hated
that other team/loved that other team."
It's very surreal to see myself on TV - especially without the long hair and makeup sessions that people normally get when they go on international TV Razz

I had a lot of moments where I cringe and think, "oh wow, did I really say/do that?", but I can always laugh at myself, which is very important!
One particular moment that stands out which we never knew on the Race, was what Terri and Henry said behind our backs during the intersection. "Scatterbrain"..hmm. I'll let the the show speak for itself Razz

3. If you ever do an All-Star Amazing Race (since you mentioned it on
your last post) Would you do anything differently in your preparations?
(Well I guess more practice on counting skills & driving a manual
car...lol).
Yes, more practise on the counting and driving - definitely. ha ha. Also I think it's very important to stop and really read and understand the clue properly :)

4. If you and your entire season's cast were transplanted wholly onto
Survivor, who would be the first voted off and who would win the
million?
I can't answer this one.... Razz

There ya go guys!! :)

Wow, Thank you Natasha for this.

I have a very simple question. I observed that you were limping during the last legs of TARA 2. What really happened? (,)

Thanks for sharing... Razz

Natasha, first of all thank you for a stellar performance in the race I'm sure the folks are very proud.

Got a few questions to ask:

Did you guys have any additional scenes in the race that didn’t make it to the final cut, like a few comic scenes?

What is one thing that surprised you the most about the race?

What was your favorite regret during the race?

Sir Raggededge??? When
this thing happened? The Queen did not advise me at all....heh!

Thanks for the answer Natasha, I can sleep soundly
tonight. And for whatever it's worth, if you are running for a
mayor, you'll get my vote (shudder)

natasha, when are you coming to Australia next? it'll be so nice seeing you [and maybe others] in person!!

which was your favourite country to be at?
was it the ones which you did great in the leg, or was it just the country, people, culture, etc?

do you need a lot of stamina in the race? because it seemed it you guys were always running around
