Well, this was not really a great follow-up to our first Portugal week. Our Escape to Portugal players took home $238,486 in cash and prizes, this week, with some of this amount coming from the expensive Prize Puzzle trips, alone. Our only highlight from this week was Thursday's Bonus Round win. Not much to say about this week except that, but at least we didn't get skunked. Mr. Skunk hasn't sprayed us since California Coast week back in September, and we need to keep this up.
Are any of you hungry? Do any of you consider yourself a "foodie"? Well, you're in luck, because next week is Delicious Destinations. All next week, we'll learn about food from all around the world, and see some tasty concoctions. Will next week be as delicious as last season's version, or will we be running out of the kitchen from so much heat? We'll just have to find out and see.
Warning: You may be drooling all next week from seeing the delicious food, and may have an urge to eat your television screen.
