What's the point of hiding photos now that we already have them?

Got the rickshaw from the signs in the various photos: Prahlad Cloth Store turns up an address in
"Nai Sarak, Delhi" on Google, and another sign in the next photo seems to confirm that. The red-haired man location came from a sign in the background as well (how helpful!).

ETA: Is this the cow?

Wow Boingo!

Stealing your map too please! ?

Now...What do we think? Did Matt go places there will be a task? Or was he aimlessly sightseeing?

Peach, the report from Portland on arrival of the Finale teams was that they had originated in Moscow. That makes it logical that Moscow is indeed a pitstop. It's the teams that matter.

Heee...I KNOW it was a pitstop!
http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15356.msg302202.html#msg302202


I'm just wondering if the places Matt visited in Delhi and Moscow will turn out to be challenge/task locations, or was he just sightseeing?

Maybe both?!

Puzzling over the redheaded man in India...I thought he was with the grains, but not so per Neobies Map...

Since the photos really focus in on the sledge, the HOOK, and the large grain sacks--I'll bet they are doing some hauling!
I believe red haired man is where you would purchase the nuts & grains? Is that right Neobie?

Could he be about something else entirely?

  Yippee!

I have news from La Paz!! 

Our blogger from La Paz has been in the field with no Internet...but here's what she has oh so kindly replied to my many questions! (Bolds are mine...)


Quote
Hi peach,

sorry I didn't reply earlier, we didn't have any internet access for the last 10 days.

As for your questions, it's a bit hard to remember (as I'm not as obsessed by details as you guys are!) but we are rather certain we saw the Amazing Race on May 28th in La Paz. They were in Plaza Abaroa (sometime called Plaza Avaroa), in the neighborhood of Sopocachi. From our apartment, we also noticed a lot of commotions and big tv lighting in the parc of the Monticulo, near Plaza Espana. I am like 80% sure the sign said U-Turn but as soon as I shouted "Oh my god it's the Amazing Race" some of the workers covered the sign. I know it wasn't one of those thing where you can put the picture of another team. So just a big yellow sign with the flag beneath it. What else... The bikes were similar to the ones on the picture you sent but less shabby looking. And they were next to wooden head gear with lots of feathers on it. I didn't see any teams. Oh, but also, there were lots of brass bands typical of Bolivia. I'm not sure why they were there. But there was more than one band, that's what caught our attention first because we thought there would be a parade.

I'm afraid that's it! Hope this helps your curiosity! Sorry there were no pictures taken.


This is puddin's wooden bike photo I sent...



And a HUGE thank you to C&W for the nice reply!!
