Here is a zoom in on the Lou Lim Ieoc Garden intro cap. Maybe someone can read it.
As what I have said I find some additional information...If what I find is true, there should have been an art exhibition held there. The chinese wording is the theme of that exhibition. It started from 18/11/2006 to 17/12/2006. According to what I find, it is closed on Monday. Based on the information, I think the teams arrived on 12/12
I read the "lesiure" word only...I don't know if it is related to the exhibition. I found some information about the exhibition http://www.macautourism.gov.mo/en/ezone/whatson.php?lan=en&year=2006&month=11Here's my first post. You are right. The Chinese word is the theme of the exhibition.花草閒拾 Your information is right. I found it here. http://www.iacm.gov.mo/scrweb/showdetail.asp?id=1485The exhibition was about the flower and bird paintings. Here is the map inside the Lou Lim Ieoc Garden.(盧廉若公園) [attachment deleted by admin]

I have a few of the same ones as BANZAI. I want to ask for some groupthink on these:
Boy with Water Buffalo - this looks like southeast Asia, such as Vietnam, or Philippines to me; what do you think?
Fish - the sign is either the name of the fish in local language or the unit of currency for the price; anyone recognize either one or the type of fish?
Waterfalls - this is most probably a national park near PUNTA ARENAS or near USHUAIA; my guess is Tierra del Fuego National Park; any other thoughts or agreement?
Rafting - this could be in Hawaii or Guam or other places; any ideas?

There is some White Water rafing in Argentina.

PUDDIN, you are right but they are known to be doing the Zodiac boats in Ushuaia already. Would they logically do both in the same episode?

There is some White Water rafing in Argentina. Argentina/Chile border maybe Not happy with this, but the rapids/falls on the Rio Petrohué in Chile looks similar to vidcap (particularly the mountain, which could be Volcano Osorno). :-\ Or maybe not  Bash away  [attachment deleted by admin]

That would be something.  It sort of match's Boingo.. how long would it take them to drive a 4x4 to Rio Petrohué from San Pedro? :

:-\ Not sure, but Atacama Desert is over a thousand miles from Osorno Volcano. Quite a drive.  Chateau: Intersting...look what pops up when you google "sotar raft chile" Sotar is one of the of the best rafts company on the market, to make sure we give the best service to our customers we renewed our rafts fleet with some 14 feet Elite models. ... Want to test Sotar rafts? Just book a trip with us on the Petrohue or the San Pedro.  Looks like Ko'Kayak uses Sotar rafts on Rio Petrohue.  But then again, what rafting company doesn't.

After getting new paddling apparel (Kokatat) and new Sea Kayak (Necky) last year it was time to refresh a bit our rubbers... Want to test Sotar rafts? Just book a trip with us on the Petrohue or the San Pedro.  Looks like they do use Sotar rafts on Rio Petrohue.  But then again, what rafting company doesn't.  **Racing to avoid elimination, four teams conduct a mad dash in 4x4's across the desert. Who will make it?

GEORGIAPEACH, your Dar-es-Salaam Fish Market photo #1 is interesting not because of the woman but becacuse of the fish. From a distance, they appear to match up pretty well with the type of fish from my screencap.
