Is that a clock on the olympic wall?



Yes! But this would normally be a clock used to time routines, not a time clock...

but 2:408 could be?? :duno:
Thats what i couldn't remember. We went through this clock thing in TAR9 in Russia. Thanks peach.
Of course there's the Japanese drum that you're still looking for ..... :lol:

The Sound of Music Pavillon: can be found at Hellbrunn Palace today, in the movie it was still located at Leopoldskron Palace. One of the most famous and romantic scenes was filmed here:  'I am 16 going on 17'
This scene? :lol:

I see 21:08:12 (11:08 pm).

Which is consistent with the darkness outside.

You are so right.  I shouldn't even bother doing clock arithmetic.  I'm just base 10.

is it possible to get a time off the watches or computer?

The flight attendants computer or Brad's watch?

What about Mike's watch at the olympic staduim, that coudl tell us the exact time and if the clock on the wall is an actual clock?

I agree.  If it's a real clock, 9:08pm seems way too early.  Considering Romaniafan's witness, the 2nd flight comes in around 12:45am and I doubt the first flight got in that much earlier (which we believe Margie/Luke Mel/Mike are on).   Must just be a timer clock.

Not a big follower of gymnastics, but which gymnastic events are timed?  Floor exercise, maybe?  And would any of them need hours:minutes:seconds? :duno:

I was thinking 24:08/2:12

Wouldn't that be the way you do for the hour after midnight before is becomes 01 or is that 00:08/2:12 for 8 (or is it 2) minutes after midnight?

My first thought was 2 and then thought maybe 8 after looking again.

Floor event timing is crucial. But RB time isn't really crucial because we know they all bunch at the railway station around 430AM.

I got this off of Kris' wonderfully BIG watch, it is at the Mat w/ Phil at Hellbrun, might help with release times.  I'm guessing 4:10 ish?

I can't make out that picture peach but thats a good guess because we know 4:45/5:15 pm for Brad and Victoria Cara & Jamie I think.

I don't think Amanda & Kris will totally lose their passports and money -- they'll find it eventually.  But I think it will cost them enough time that they wind up getting eliminated for it, leaving Jodi & Christie safe yet again.  After all, we don't see them after Salzburg either, although since Linda & Steve were eliminated last leg, they obviously made it to Romania.

Oh, and I'd love to see Nadia Comaneci as the Pit Stop greeter!  But most likely, it'll be someone dressed as a gymnast or a gypsy.

I think it'll just be a close call for Amanda & Kris.  Christie & Jodi are the team who'll reach their end next week, I think.

Like mswood said and I agree, this could explain how a strong team like Kris and Amanda get eliminated early on per no future sightings.

Humour me for a second. Is the sign behind in English?



German airports... have German signs, don't they?



Also, would teams on the later flight(s) miss the first train? We know Tammy is standing in darkness, but sunrise is at 6.57am, and the first train leaves at 5.50am. Anything?

I can't tell, but does he have the watch on upside down or backwards? It looks to me the winder stem is in the right So that we are looking at the watch the correct way. That would be 3:40 then?

Re the watch:

I don't think so. I thinkit is just high tech. If it were on backwards, it would be 10:40 I think, and in any case 4ish should be right.
