Sorry, didn't know Nigeria was a volatile place to be! But just out of curiosity, what's wrong with Saudi Arabia? One of my friend visited Jeddah a year back and she only talked about the places she visited and didn't mention about facing any problem.O ya she did say there were strict rules on clothing. But other than that, have things changed there recently?

Saudi Arabia is too restrictive on filming and if a f/f or homosexual team raced in that country, there would be problems.  Also Saudi Arabia is very Islamic and officials would be unhappy if many places like the airports, government buildings, and religious sites were filmed.  Also The US State Dept has Saudi Arabia on their travel warning list.  So my advice to anyone who is about to post their wishlists, do your research online to make sure that country you want is safe and stable.

No "Democratic Republic of the Congo", Please!  There is continued fighting in the country between the rebels and government especially in the Kinshasa area.  At this time the country is not considered a tourist-friendly destination.  So filming would be hard because of security concerns in the country.

wow, that's a nice one!  And I hope that I could go there and try it. :casey

btw, the world's fastest zip line is located in Sun City in Rustenburg, South Africa, just 2 hours away from Johannesburg and a possible venue for 2010 Fifa World Cup!  And here's the info from wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rustenburg
So, I would edit on my TAR 16 wishlist on the South African leg part:

Leg 3: Cape Town, South Africa and the pit stop will be in Cape Agulhas, the southernmost point in Africa
Leg 4: Johannesburg and Rustenburg, South Africa and the pit stop will be in Sun City

that will be nice! ;D

So, I decided to do a "CBS inspired" course. 11 legs + 1 TBC:

START: Atlanta, Georgia (large enough city to get into and out of, but with enough transportation options to make it a challenge to get to the airport. Plus, peach can spy on them)
Leg 1: Kauai, Hawaii (budget friendly, but with the potential to have amazing, non-derivative tasks)
Leg 2: Singapore (a non horrible leg, mayhaps?)
Leg 3: Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei (new SE Asian country that's still safe for travel)
Leg 4: Varanasi, India (yes, India again, but India has so much in its culture that it merits another visit. Ideally this leg wouuld start in Kolkata, and then have a train ride to Varanasi for the RB/Pit Stop)
Leg 4b: Kolkata, India (...only to be told to keep racing.)
Leg 5: Petra, Jordan (and heck, they could even have a leg in Amman)
Leg 6: Sevastopol, Ukraine (if they were going for a military-inspired leg in TAR10, Sevastopol would've been the best choice)
Leg 7: Nairobi, Kenya (15 seasons and no Pit Stop yet?)
Leg 8: Nairobi, Kenya (...and if they're avoiding Africa due to cost, then this would be probably the easiest way to do it; one leg focusing on the flora and fauna, one leg focusing on everyday life/industrial life)
Leg 9: Copenhagen, Denmark (the Shakespeare fan in me wants a Pit Stop at the Helsingor. Aside from that, Copenhagen is kind of an awesome city)
Leg 10: Gibraltar (mainly for the macaques)
Leg 11: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (large enough city to fly into, but with enough in the way of stuff to do that there could be an entertaining final leg here. Plus, pudding can spy on them.)
