What Blondie said. They got Dallas's passport back, but clearly not in time for them to get to Portland for the finish.

Actually, that's probably not the most efficient way to deal with it, except for something like Spanish, which would help anywhere in the Western Hemisphere except Brazil or a few other places. I think what a lot of teams have done is get to the airport and buy a phrase book for the language of whatever country they are heading to next. It gives them something to study on the flight.
By the way, NA, what languages do you speak (or, if you are like me, used to speak and with a little refresher could still muddle through)? I wonder what we've got covered so far -- French and German for me.
And I was so glad to see Nick and Starr win. But I'm already missing the race.
