There could be hundreds of these in Delhi.
As of 2005, there were 57 official ghats in Delhi (here, last story); production wouldn't go to an unlicensed place, but that still leaves us with dozens to choose from. There are pages at the MCD site (they have an interesting map here) that claim the govt. is going to map the ghats, but they either keep the map well hidden or they never got around to it. A couple of search terms from social-worker documents here and here:
  • A dhobi pays about a quarter of her daily income for charcoal to heat the "sad iron"
  • Ghat=office Adday=cubicle

I see at least one (possibly two) domes in this preview street scene.

  That looks like an iron in the foreground, so girls appear to have arrived at the laundry detour.

If a team's actually eliminated as the guide you found suggests, Puddin, then my guess is that Andrew & Dan are the unlucky victims.

good point on who's doing what

i just don't think go find a groom compared to wash a bunch of shirts by hand is that hard


That's until one or more teams say, "THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME!"

Yeah, that's kind of what I'm thinking -- nobody knows how a groom looks at an Indian wedding ceremony and as a result one or more teams think that all the guys look the same!

In the thread with the Poll re: Team Losing It Puddin states:

"I don't see any signs of a Fast Forward this leg, although we don't see Nick and Starr doing any tasks, yet."


I have been thinking a big maybe for a  FF for Nick and Starr since they are only shown in the cab in the previews.  If the peppers are very, very hot then maybe that's a FF.

               I do think the Boiled Sheep's Head looks like it could be FF in Kazakhstan.

The rickshaws are probably being painted at night during down time for the drivers.

Since they are basically going across town I'm thinking this is a TBC.  New Delhi and Old Delhi

Is it possible for a NEL to not have a pitstop?  IMO it seems ridiculous to have a pitstop then leave 12 hrs later to go across town.  Did I miss something to come up with this idea?  I have read the threads and watched the previews but I may be way off base on this thought.

These are things I have been thinking about.

If a team's actually eliminated as the guide you found suggests, Puddin, then my guess is that Andrew & Dan are the unlucky victims.

Belle Book


If this is true, than this means Kelly & Christy will be in the final 3. I remember reading that Phil said one of the teams in the final 3 won't finish the race because they are famous for making mistakes. We all know that was either Kelly & Christy and Andre & Dan. So if Dandrew get eliminated, it is likely Kelly & Christy will come in 3rd Place.

heres my current Dream List (w Spoilers)
1. Toni & Dallas
2. Nick & Starr
3. Kelly & Christy
4. Ken & Tina
5. Sarah & Terrence
6. Dan & Andrew
7. Aja & Ty
8. Marisa & Brooke
9. Mark & Bill
10. Anth & Steph
11. Anita & Arthur

Heres BVM's interview where he talks about Dandrew, I don't recall Phil talking about any team in particular being "famous for making mistakes".

makz3d, what you have described is equivalent to the definition of ToBeContinued (TBC).

That doesn't look like a 1st place team to me.

Oh and a quickie.  I love me a quickie.
