They were of two minds.
However, the negatives were heavier.
LuLu and LaLa lost their grandmother to COVID-19, which they decided to share on the show.

LuLu and LaLa ultimately let this loss fuel them.
Still, things were different the second time around (the world).
Here is everything the pandemic changed about “The Amazing Race.”

“When we came back, it was totally different,” LuLu told us.
You’re eliminated."
The stress of potentially getting eliminated was only the tip of the iceberg.
“We were also flown private.
There was no more taking public transportation no buses, no cabs…” LuLu added.
“You’re looking out the window trying to guess, like, what ocean is this?
What are we flying over?”
This and no physical contact made the mental aspect of the race even more challenging.
“It’s those little things that people take for granted, but that was the major changes.”
Still, LuLu assured us that everyone was safe.
you could catch Season 33 of “The Amazing Race” every Wednesday at 9 p.m. EST on CBS.
