I wish that they could stop making the 2/3/4 legs cycles in South America at the beginning of the race. The race visited that continent 9 times (seasons 2, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 16, 18 & 20) and only once was it featured at the end (TAR18 - TAR19 could count since Panama is pretty near from SA), and it was for only one leg. Those are two (Rio & Panama that is) of my favourite legs in that continent because it actually felt different then the others: there were only 4 teams left.
Making those South American cycles always at the beginning of the race always feel repetitive (mainly in the last 2/3 cycles) because there's always a whole bunch of teams to follow. Never did we get six or five teams left racing in that continent, and those legs never got that intensity when teams are closer to the finish line. (Not saying that they are all boring, the Paraguay leg was probably the best one of TAR20)
Just my 2¢

Having been to Houston for a week to help my medically-needy uncle, there's nothing really to do there except visiting the museum district. The Hous. space control center is privately owned by the government. The nearest "interesting" location would be the Texas gulf which is about a 2 - 3 hour drive.

mali and mexico are dangrous and patskin

Both seem to be OK, ZBC, depending on where you would go.

Mexico seems to be quite safe around the Cancun and Teotihuacan areas, and Mali has calmed down ever since the government bet Azawad.

What could they call a third all-stars. We already have All Stars, Unfinished Business. How about 25th anniversary for season 25? (Pitiful) I am sure there are better ideas out there.
