Well we were wrong about Poland, lol. although a TBC seems the best option what if it is a NEL then the double episode from Macau to Guam? But we still have the Macau sighting with Phi & the Cha's to think about but I'll take that to the Macau thread  :waves:

Maybe Phil's preview will help? I doubt it though...I'm betting he's just going to talk about the cat fight.  :meow:

 riomangatar--a TBC is by definition also a NEL becuase it is all one long uber leg--you are still racing. We call it "two legs" but it could also be considered one reallly looongg one.

Best guess is what Michael said earlier:

Hong Kong (Ep 10): TBC
Macau (Ep 11): NEL
Guam (Ep 12): Elim (BYE to my favorites)
Hawaii and the finish mat with the final three (Ep 13)

I refer to a forum about the bamboo climbing detour
http://www.miniforum.org/showpost.fcgi?MGID=2087565&page=13&tempid=2

He mentioned it is Former Cheung Sha Wan Police Quarters. He is going to take the photo. And I think he is right

Northwest Kowloon

Lei Cheng Uk Han Tomb

The Lei Cheng Uk Han Tomb Museum is located at Tonkin Street in Sham Shui Po, Kowloon. It is a five-minute walk from the Cheung Sha Wan MTR Station. The Museum is composed of an Eastern Han dynasty brick tomb and an exhibition gallery. The tomb was discovered in 1955 when the Government was leveling a hill slope at the Lei Cheng Uk Village for the construction of resettlement buildings.

According to the structure, calligraphy and content of the inscriptions on tomb bricks and tomb finds, it is believed that the tomb was built in the Eastern Han dynasty (25 - 220 AD). The tomb was declared as a gazetted monument in 1988 and is preserved permanently thereafter. Though it is closed to public for conservation reasons, visitors can still have a glimpse of the interior of the tomb through the glass panel at the Entrance Passage.

It's the U-shaped buildings here. There's an MTR station in Cheung Sha Wan, but I don't have the address.

Not crazy--just obsessed!
Shau Kei Wan* sounds like Cheung Sha Wan to me!

I've emailed sun7kid to ask  ;D

maybe we can find pics of some of the nearby buildings to see if they match some of the ones in the distance?

Here is Haking Wong Technical School
