Wanderlusting

The Amazing Race, which started in Miami and nearly circumnavigated the globe, ending in Seattle, is now over. What a finale. I already can’t wait for the next season. Good for CBS: along with Big Brother, this is the longest stretch I’ve watched CBS on a regular basis. For now, every bit of traveling I do—even if it’s just on the metro—is infused with the sense of dramatic urgency from the show. “When’s the next train?!” “Roadblock!” “Detour!”
