Teams from [The Amazing Race 18] have been spotted at Oceanworld in Sydney, Australia,[1] and at numerous other locations around the city of Sydney during Monday November 22, 2010. Teams at Sydney Town Hall were overheard speaking of allocated travel times to "the Outback" on Tuesday November 23.

Hi everyone!

So I managed to track down where the teams were today using updated posts from this topic and I would like to share some pictures of them (though the quality is abit dodge sorry) to say thank you! I tried to get a picture with Gary and Mallory (since they're my favourite team <3) but they said they couldn't so I only got ones that I took discreetly =( Also, I talked to Ron and Christina who were both extremely nice and they were asking for advice on how to get to the airport and what terminal the REX regional airline was at - I was only too glad to help =P

I happened to sneak a peak into one of those metal dishes. It appeared to be a compass rose, with at least 8 points. Not sure why they are still carrying them, I assumed it had something to do with the yachting task.

I'm guessing the $$ Coutzy spent traveling to Sydney was well worth it!  What an experience.  I'd love to hear Coutzy's thoughts on the day.  Being a pseudo racer for the benefit of mankind (okay, not mankind but it sounded good!)


****please move this to the correct thread.  couldn't find a "Coutzy is awesome" thread to post this in!*****

I wish I could have been there.   :jam:

I imagined being there all the way through your reports!  You made the right choice to go.

Is Phil really actually wearing a cowboy hat when they checked in?  :lol:

used Twitter Search and typed in "Amazing Race" and found this along the tweets.

3mins ago:  Amazing Race All Stars tgh shooting kat LAX ni. Tatau mana diorg nak pegi.

(translated) Amazing Race All Stars noon LAX shooting ni kat. Tatau where diorg want pegi.
the correct translation:Amazing Race All Stars are shooting at Lax(could be Luxembourg) now.No idea where there are going next.

someone get Joab or someone to translate this.

kiwi, send me that link quick!

This may be it guys, need locations asap!

It's malaysian according to Google Translator!
