Here's a couple of tweets in Portuguese from a brand new first time twitter user. Amazing how much that's happening lately. Homework must have taken longer tonight.

Amazing Race,tão gravando a temporada 20 aqui na minha cidade...Pelotas!!
3 minutes ago

Twitter has these as:

I saw an American reality show, I think it's The Amazing Race here in my city, 20 are in season!

Amazing Race, as the season shooting 20 here in my city ... pellets!

Naturally, there's no clue as to the city she's in. Do these tweets look like proper Portuguese?

By the way, you've done a fantastic job, docol! No need to apologize. I can't imagine anyone doing much better.

I agree DecliveBL. We already know they caught a flight to Germany earlier today.

If it's not far and you're not busy, it might be worth taking a look, but I'd be VERY surprised if you saw anything. I suppose a team could have gotten very lost.

Google translations are usually wrong. I'm not surprised that it didn't get the local usage of rodoviária.

Ok....first of all, i wanna apologize for no bringing more to the table...i wish i could've done more for you guys, but i wanted you to know that i really tried my best.!

So, airport security didn't allow me to take any photos or get close to the area where the racers were....i saw at least 8 teams it was like 5:23 pm when i saw them at the check in area, specifically at the TAM Ticket Counter...this time i couldn't find out where they were heading or where was their final destination.

There was a lot of ppl surrendering them so i could barely catch them.!!

That's pretty much what happened cuz after that, i went towards them and quickly kicked off....
Thank you so much! :tup:
Can you describe teams?

I didn't know it was that late for you. Thanks for going. I'm not sure I would have. I'll be offline when you get back, but I'll check in tomorrow.

The translation is wrong...translated it actually says "But in the meantime they are at the city's bus station! If anyone wants to see them". The tweets are proper Portuguese.

Y obvio... Los equipos de The Amazing Race hacen fila atrás mio. Seré el extra 80.000 de algún capitulo X en donde apareceré TWITEANDO #BsAs

And of course the teams of The Amazing Race are making a queue behind me (lined up). I'll be the extra number 80.000 from the X episode where i'll be shown twitting.

https://twitter.com/#!/DanielGDelgado


It looks like the teams are leaving Argentina.

He said:

Hoy: Buenos Aires - Bogotá. Vuelo Avianca 088. 7:45am llegando 12:15pm (Hora COL)

4 hours ago.

Today: Buenos Aires to Bogotá. Avianca Flight 088 7.45am, getting there at 12.15pm (Colombia Time).

Bogotá?! That's cute, then?!



Maybe this is not great information, but I asked this guy once this was up, and he answered about 12 hours ago. He replied:

@DavidMagraner siii fue muy divertido! Estaban en Buenos Aires... Yo iba a Colombia y ellos creo que salian a Sao Paulo!

Trans: Yeeees it was really funny! They were in Buenos Aires... I was going to Colombia and I think they were leaving to Sao Paulo!

Does this change anything?

I believe that USJ9 is a neighborhood in Malaysia, probably local race only.

posting this for ovalorange who found this blog:

It's  Torino!

http://haleighgirladventures.blogspot.com/2011/12/adventures-in-city.html



Haleigh kindly agreed to share her story and pics!
 
She saw Phil in Piazza Castello (Torino, Turin) Sunday Dec 4, so we are thinking these were standups so the race itself may have come thru on Monday. She was not able to get back there then. This fits nicely with our Rome airport sighting also on Dec 4.

Quote
While I was soaking up the Italian chatter of my friends, one remarked that it looked like they were filming something. This is a very famous square and there seems to be something going on there all the time. I looked closer just to try and guess and saw this pretty picture…

Quote
Yep thatis right, The Amazing Race is coming to Torino!
I don’t know what season they are filming or anything. I don’t know what this means or what else they will have to do. All I know is that the Piazza is the “pit stop for this leg of the race.” Yes I heard the words come out of mouth of Phil Keoghran. And that guy is good, but he still did at least 2 takes while we were standing there. He was also helping the crew with lighting and such. Multi talented! I was surprised by how little equipment they had all together.

Thanks to haleigh for letting us use her pics!! :waves:

Here's a pano. From the direction of the mat, they probably expect teams to arrive from the south. It's a strange location for a pitstop; even in late fall, they were bound to be spotted.
