letsgoracin (http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=2666383&view=findpost&p=5527539) has more to say about Barcelona ~


The place they will be doing it at is here - http://www.coloniaguellbarcelona.com/
Look for flights arriving into Barcelona at 8:35PM on the 21 (yesterday).
As I said, the event involved something with an EXTREMELY large amount of tomatoes.
No, this is not a first hand account. Don't really want to divulge the source.



There is a probability that they fly in from Paris according to my info. I'm not sure how you guys check this, but see if there is a flight from Paris to Barcelona that arrives in Barcelona at 8:35PM yesterday via Air France.


More info today from  letsgoracing  @TWOPS. (http://forums.televisionwithoutpity.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=2666383&view=findpost&p=5548243)

Quote
7:00pm – Analysis of Tomato Pile
Go figure; if I was in charge of a national historic site I wouldn't let a giant pile of tomatoes anywhere near the place, no matter what promises were made. Maybe this doesn't involve a "tomatina" food fight but another search task: "find the green tomato" or something similar.

The Giant Route makes me think of a parade. I had to dig back to 4 months ago when I posted the below. Good lord it's been 4 months since we talked about this episode!!!! This sounds like a good roadblock to me.

Yes, by route it may mean parade. When I looked up the giants earlier I read they have giant parades. Here is a link with a video for one in Bilbao. Could be the teams have to "be" one of the giants for a part of the route. Sounds like fun!

clues!

* A difficult choice causes one team to hit their emotional breakdown. Will they keep it together or lose it and the race?

* One team is targetted for elimination by some of the other teams. Will they be knocked out or survive to race another day?

* Four teams race for the spot in the final three and the chance to win the million dollars.

1.  Is I would assume Rob & Kim based on the previews of Kim.
2.  Most likely is Dustin & Kandice

But those are simply and even an idiot like myself could guess tehm.

Come on CBS lets get some dirt going.  Hopefully tomorrow.  By the way the Insider CLips this week are actually pretty good and make me bigger fans of Tyler & JAmes and Rob & kimberly.

It looks like the locals are supposed to throw tomatoes at the racers.  Look at the smaller piles ringing the large pile.  I do hope the tomatoes are not the Detour as I would like to see all the teams participate in this task.

Getting hit with tomatoes must hurt. Traveling at the right speed they're hard like apples. I can understand why Kimberly would quit.

There's going to be some interesting comments coming up as Tyler, James, and Rob put their heads up under the dresses of huge women. 

That is what they will have to do (if they select a female giant) in order to see through those little crotch windows.   :angel:

Since there are 4 giants still there as the BQs select their two it means at least one team is behind them.

It looks like the Giant Walk ends at the Columbus statue.

Actually, the shot of the seven (or more) giants has shadows that are the same as far as I can tell as when the the BQs select their two.  There is a lamp post in the background that casts a shadow making the same angle wrt the dock boards that the giants' shadows make in the shot of seven.

So it appears that the BQs are in first place (or tied for it) at this point.  And this is post-tomatoes.

Here's the monument (Monument a Colom) at Las Ramblas at the Port in the pic with D/K and T/J (still in giant costume) below... looks like they have to take a route in costume from Maremagnum to the monument, with D/K in the lead (already out of costume) over T/J at this point.

It's the Torre Jaume I, within spitting distance from Maremagnum.  Next to Hotel Grand Marina (possibly the pitstop/crew/racer hotel).  ;)

Are the giants and the tomatoes the 2 detour choices? The tomatoes looks longer. What could be the hours of operation that opens at 10 a.m.? Maybe the maze? Then teams proceed to the roadblock for some camel grub. The detour is last?

ETA: Answered my own question. Info from Horta Labyrinth Park:

"The museum opens from 10 am until nightfall and the entrance park is free on Wednesdays and Sundays."

I was thinking maybe the camel meat was the first task of the second day, although I'll need Chateau's help with shadows. ;)

Otherwise, I can't explain D/K's change of clothes. Here's what I'm seeing:

D/K in pink and black opening the camel meat clue...

D/K in blue and red for all tasks -- maze & giants (presumably on the 2nd day in Barcelona, 6/22)

And the camel meat has to be the same day as the tasks -- see Rob & Kim's clothing (same for meat and tomato pile)... see pics below...

Possible agenda:
Arrive in Barcelona in evening of 6/21
Find spot in Colonia Guell?
Receive camel meat clue
Bunched at restaurant for hours of operation
ROADBLOCK: Eat camel meat at 10am 6/22
DETOUR: Tomatoes or Maze
Find Maremagnum
Complete course in giant costumes
Pit stop?

Wouldn't it make more sense to do a camel eating task in Morocco?  The Barbies appear to have diffent colored tops during the camel clue/task.  And the kid standing near them appears to me North African.  Buildings don't remind me of Barcelona.  Maybe they have to eat camel before they fly to Spain.   :angel:

From the Morocco thread:
I can get them out of OZZ on 6/21 at 0600 to CDG arr 12pm via Casablanca--and that is the only flight of the day!
WHAT DO THEY DO BETWEEN 12PM and the 6:50 PM flight because they can get to Barcelona much sooner!!
This is a puzzle for me--it would be the perfect time for the Eiffel Tower task except the spoiler dates don't fit...I'm thinking they have to do something else on the morning of the 21st (like drive to Marrakech or Casablanca--leaving in the dark-- to catch the flight to CDG from there...there is an Air France flight Casablanca to CDG which dep12:45 and arr 4:50pm but if you don't make that one you wouldn't arrive till 8:45PM, 9PM, or 10PM --thereby missing the flight to Barcelona...maybe another place for a BQ screw up??

Wonder if the eating camel meat is still in Morocco--maybe Casablanca??

They really have to do something else the morning of the 21st to explain why based on flight times they aren't in Barcelona much sooner.

Plus eating camel meat seems more Moroccan than Spanish...???

Leave OZZ 0600 arr Casablanca 0650

Eat camel meat in Casablanca

dep Casablanca 12:45 arr CDG 4:50PM

connect to  flight to Barcelona arr 8:45PM


edited to say--great minds...boingo!!

That sounds like a good possibility, Boingo -- I've found some camel eating references in Morocco, but not Spain...

From this blog (http://72.14.203.104/search?q=cache:6E13lhnHhKEJ:everlastingtaffyman.blogspot.com/2003_01_01_everlastingtaffyman_archive.html+%22eat+camel%22+barcelona+morocco&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=2):
Anywho, im in morocco ive gotten ripped off twice. I bought myself a jilaba (spelling?) for my birthday, whic is like the traditional winter wear. Tonight some cats at my hostel who i hungout with today are going to eat camel meat, im pretty grossed out by that.

Plus, here are the outfits for T/J at the Moroccan pitstop and at the camel eating roadblock -- notice the same grey shirt...

Whatever the task is at Colonia Guell is also a possibility for the detour.

The itinerary mentions an "art picture car" and "helpers to unload" -- I'm picturing a lot of artwork, like stacks of pictures/paintings? Like a search the paintings or search the tomatoes kind of thing? Dunno.  ???

puddin--I really wanted them to go the Marrakech souks too--but flight wise it is more difficult...

They would have to go OZZ--Casablanca--Marrakech in the morning

Then Marrakech--Barcelona--the best connections are via Madrid and Lisbon not via CDG, so wouldn't explain how/why they go via Paris..

But the diirect Casablanca--Paris flight ties in great...cause  at least some of them have to be on Air France flight #2148 depCDG 6:50PM arr Barcelona 8:45PM on Wed June 21

Especially with two flights in one leg, there's always the possibility that teams take charter flights for the flight within Morocco. So it's possible that teams fly to Marrakech or Casablanca on TAR's own timetable.

Sups, that's a good possibility for the park at 10am -- maybe Chateau can help us with shadows. Of course, TAR has been known to make their own hours of operation in the past, regardless of the normal hours of the site.

clues!

* A difficult choice causes one team to hit their emotional breakdown. Will they keep it together or lose it and the race?

* One team is targetted for elimination by some of the other teams. Will they be knocked out or survive to race another day?

* Four teams race for the spot in the final three and the chance to win the million dollars.
1st bullet-Rob/Kim
2nd bullet-Dustin/Kandice

Well they are definately not leaving because they have no clue in hand. I kind of think it is an interior gate like to a different section of the park. It looks like they just got let in and that's why they are hauling butt. It's no surprise Bama didn't run as fast but R/K should be just behind them. Maybe they took a wrong turn.  ???

Well heres some clues:


ONLY FOUR TEAMS REMAIN AS THE RACERS CONTINUE THEIR QUEST FOR A SPOT IN THE FINAL THREE AND A CHANCE AT ONE MILLION DOLLARS
ON "THE AMAZING RACE 10," SUNDAY, DEC. 3

"Dude, I'm Such A Hot Giant Chick Right Now!" -- Only four teams remain as the Racers continue their quest for a spot in the final three and a chance at One Million Dollars on THE AMAZING RACE 10, Sunday, Dec. 3 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

*The intensity heightens as Teams depart Morocco and race to their next destination knowing that one team may be eliminated leaving only three teams in the Race to the Finish Line.   
*Immediately, the Racers face a difficult Detour causing one Team to hit their emotional breaking point.  Will this Team be able to pull it together or will this hurdle be enough to knock them out of the Race entirely? 
*At the Roadblock, an argument breaks out when one Racer loses faith in their partner. 
*Finally, one Team feels the coldness of the other Teams who have targeted them for elimination.

No punking this time Puddin.  I'm hunting for it too.  So far:  nada.

There is that tourista shot of a stairway with matching gate posts but it is not the same.  I think that one is the stairway going down to the "Placa dels lleons" on your pdf map.  But our promo shot is of a wider stairway preceded by a long stretch of open pathway.

Is the park entrance at the top of the map?  I think this shot should be near that entrance as mentioned above.

BTW, if it is 10 am then the sun would be shining from exactly due East (90 deg azimuth).

 :woohoo:

Actually, I think the "Placa dels Lleons" is it.  It's just a different stairway that is not clearly drawn on the map!  And it's covered by trees in Google Earth.

Now I can get the time.  But I have to go to work.

I think Sups is right about the interior location of the gate. If you use that link (http://www.casa-arbanil.com/gallery/spain/laberint/index1.cfm) I listed above and go thru the pictures, you'll notice they're in order as the photographer goes thru the park, starting at the velodrome (http://www.casa-arbanil.com/gallery/spain/laberint/index1.cfm), past the fish pond (http://www.casa-arbanil.com/gallery/spain/laberint/index3.cfm), the house (http://www.casa-arbanil.com/gallery/spain/laberint/index4.cfm), gates (http://www.casa-arbanil.com/gallery/spain/laberint/index7.cfm) that look like ours, the maze (http://www.casa-arbanil.com/gallery/spain/laberint/index11.cfm), and then back to the entrance/exit where she started, the velodrome (http://www.casa-arbanil.com/gallery/spain/laberint/index35.cfm).

Judging by her picture order, the trees around Tyler/James as they're running out, the direction they're heading (away from the maze area), etc, I feel pretty good about this guess of the gate's location -- check out the map below -- gate indicated by green flag/star.

Okay, I think it's safe to just call it 10 am.

I knew it!  :rotf:

So the webclues want to make us think the roadblock is in Spain? Silly amateurs. :snics: So the leg might go something like this:

June 21
Leaving the pitstop teams get clue to go to market area in Morocco where they receive the roadblock clue.
Roadblock: eat camel meat
When completed they receive a clue to fly to Barcelona and find Horta Park (parc del laberint)
Teams hit hour of operations

June 22
Teams race through maze to clue box.
At this point the clue is either a detour or leads them to colonia guell possibly to either locate a picture or a painted car to match the one in the clue?? (just a thought). When matched receive detour clue:
Detour: tomatoes or giants (no clever detour name yet -- Smash or Carry? :lol:)
When complete travel to pit stop

And this is just speculation: As for the detour R/K and Bama choose the tomatoes since it is right around the corner but it proves to be the longer choice. Can't figure out what they are doing with the tomatoes. It looks like Kim is squeezing them with her hands. I can't see them burying a clue in a real tomato. Perhaps they are looking for a fake tomato? Maybe easier to squeeze each to ensure it is a real tomato. The giants on the hand is further away but when the teams complete the task they are much closer to the pit stop.

Yeah, I am desperately hoping that they lose by placing second just moments behind Tyler & James.

And I would love at some point i the leg, to see the girls ask if they can step on the mat first and have the guys so no.

I would love to see their racing attitude end up bitting them in the behind.

And it would be awesome for Bama to coming in last, and see them still waiting off to the side when they arrive.

Pretty sure it is a food fight with the tomatoes.  I am not sure how they complete the task.  Hit a certain number of people or hit a specific person.

Detour - FIGHT (tomatoes) or FLIGHT (giants)

I really believe that the Moroccan tasks are in the Casablanca Medina. I've been browsing in Casablanca and, while I can't find the exact location, the streets and the architecture are very similar.

The timing fits with the only flight out of Ouarzazate on June 21st, which dep 0600 and arr Casablanca 0650.

There is an old Medina and a newer Medina (also called the Quartier des Habbous) in Casablanca. I have a beautiful map to share but it is too big for me to post--(puddin--would you mind posting it for me? :please: :thankyou: ) The newer Medina is right next to the Hassin II mosque, which is the third largest in the world.

You weren't the only one.  I keep wondering what that was from.

And with that we can also see that Rob & Kim are right behind Tyler & James and Dustin & Kandice in hte maze.

So I think its safe to say that all teams make it in time for the opening of the location.

Yep--I suspect a lot of bunching which is so bad for the poor BQ"S! Bunching for the Casablanca-CDG-Barcelona flights, and at the morning task. I think this will be one of those episodes in which it is impossible to get very far ahead...

I think the detour spots are too far apart for that.

If Tibidabo Hill is the pitstop (just a guess based on the clip in the credits) then the distance from the Tomato Pile to Tibidabo is about 9 miles.

Whatever the task is at Colonia Guell is also a possibility for the detour.

The itinerary mentions an "art picture car" and "helpers to unload" -- I'm picturing a lot of artwork, like stacks of pictures/paintings? Like a search the paintings or search the tomatoes kind of thing? Dunno.  ???

Agree  :jam:

Puddin or somebody, could you put up all the frames between these two frames from the promo?

I need to determine where  the camera is wrt the benches.  With that I can make a cosine correction that will give a good estimate of the time of the shot.

I can't imagine why they take so long.

It should be an easier thing for a cabbie to find.   :dknow

I wish I could bend the events to a 4-way finale

My guesses for mat arrival are:

R&K
Bama
BQs
T&J (they let BQs arrive ahead)
 
Title: Re: Ep12:'Dude, I'm Such a Hot Giant Chick Right Now!' 12/3
Post by: puddin on December 01, 2006, 03:18:52 PM
My guess
T/J << darn no pics of them doing the detour just voices so its a guess
R/K
Bamas
BQ's


Maybe the BQ's tried tomatos first and gave up and switched detours?

OMG !! and here I thought they were first to the Giants!!

You RULE Chateau  :jam:  :jumpy:

Somehow I still think they are.

"If" the giants is a task that everyone has to do after completing the detour then Bama clearly hasn't picked up their giants yet. This sounds crazy but check out where the peek-a-boo crotch is on each giant. :snics: BQ's have lower ones and a crew member is pointing to the higher ones to the left of the BQ's (probably as T/J are running up). The giants to the right of the BQ's are for Bama and are still there. The only one's we don't know about are on the far left (R/K's).

Now if the giants are the other detour option (and not an art car thingy) I don't know why they are so late getting there. Maybe T/J and the BQ's got real turned around at the maze and made it out later than R/K and Bama.

And R&K are first to the tomato pile.  I don't see any tomatoes around it.  It's still a tidy pile when they arrive.

Banzai,  those shadows are tricky!  I had to do cosine correction to convert 61 deg apparent to 20 deg actual.

just ignore me ( just slowly working on this )

Clues:
"Dude, I'm Such A Hot Giant Chick Right Now!" -- Only four teams remain as the Racers continue their quest for a spot in the final three and a chance at One Million Dollars on THE AMAZING RACE 10, Sunday, Dec. 3 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network
*At the Roadblock, an argument breaks out when one Racer loses faith in their partner. 
*The intensity heightens as Teams depart Morocco and race to their next destination knowing that one team may be eliminated leaving only three teams in the Race to the Finish Line.
* Four teams race for the spot in the final three and the chance to win the million dollars.
* A difficult choice causes one team to hit their emotional breakdown. Will they keep it together or lose it and the race?
*Immediately, the Racers face a difficult Detour causing one Team to hit their emotional breaking point.  Will this Team be able to pull it together or will this hurdle be enough to knock them out of the Race entirely? 
* One team is targetted for elimination by some of the other teams. Will they be knocked out or survive to race another day?
*Finally, one Team feels the coldness of the other Teams who have targeted them for elimination.

I wonder if this boat (from the promo) could be the Pit Stop.   :cmas27

Anybody know its name?

Thanks to this picture posted by georgiapeach (original source (http://www.flickr.com/photos/elencita/12333207/)) I got a better idea of what the benches and windscreens look like.

With that I decided to try a different approach to estimating the angle of the pole's shadow by the giants.

I just realized that this shot is not truly a racer shot.  So the following estimate does not count for much except provide a lower bound of when the BQs had not yet reached the giants.

This shot was taken between 9:50 and 10:10 am (assumes June 22nd)

The estimate is based the shadow of the tip of the pole and GE to get the shadow's angle.

fwiw, it's probably not, but The Love Boat (aka Pacific Princess) is parked in Maremagnum.   Vidcap is not very clear, so tough to match.   :cmas5

My god, I just realized its possible that Bama could win this leg.

If Rob & Kimberly cut out of the tomatoes and head for the other tasks.  Bama could definetly get finished first and head to the Pit Stop.

I don't want that to happen.

I was really hoping that Tyler & James would get first, just barely beating Dustin & Kandice and that we would get to see Dustin & Kandice's expressions while waiting fo for the other two teams to check in.

Thats much more dramatic and sadistic then them just getting to the mat and finding out they are third or fourth.  Knowing that the other team is very close behind.

Just a thought--suppose the art car is what the Giants were delivered in??

UGH!

Are these times right?:
R/K mid tomato task at 10:22 but probably switch task to Giants (based on Kimberly meltdown)
Bama's mid tomato task at 10:41
R/J unknown times but do Giants
BQ's starting Giants at 10:46

And we know or think that the Giants are closer to pitstop??

So if R/K switch detour options--they could easily be last...but there is that pesky 30 minute penalty....

Peach your PC is working  :cmas26 ?

theres also the possablity that the Bamas switched from mater's to Giants too  :cmas5 ? but as pointed out the pile is pretty well worked over. If the clue is in the tomato wouldn't it be ironic that its in one of the mater's that Rob is pelting back at the crowd  :snicker: ?

I suspect that the finding of the clue in the tomato is some how, in itself, made to be easy.  It's the pelting that makes it so hard.  Kimberly seems to have a low tolerance for adversity so that meltdown was right at their start.  Rob can keep looking.  I think they get in and out of there in 5 min.

I also think Bama and R&K take a lead after finishing the tomato task.  This lead continues into the final leg because they are about one hour ahead of T&J at the Eiffel Tower.  The spoiler shots have them getting their packs at the base of the tower at a picture time about one hour earlier than T&J who are still at the 3rd level.  That sustained lead comes from Bamas and R&K catching a better flight to Paris.

Chateau--thank you for all the timeline stuff--it really helps my poor brain figure it all out!

I know we are right--but I would be happy dancing if some how, some way we were all wrong and the Bama's are gone!

No puddin--my poor hard drive is dead!   :cmas4 But a new one is on the way and I hope to be up and running by Tuesday (I'm at work now)...But that means I won't be able to play tonight, unless I come back to work.  Hmmmm.....

I totally agree. I wanted D/K to be the first female team to make the final 3, NOT Bama. D/K are awesome and hopefully they will at least be on ARAS!!!

And with the times for leaving the Pit Stop we now know that Dustin & Kandice if they made second could ahve still survived a 30 minute penality.  SO everyone complaining that it wasn't possible, hush....
