My wishlist route lol. Just for relaxing myself before writing my homework report. :lol:
*Winter Route (Filming in November-December)*

Leg 1: LA, California, USA -> Christchurch, West Coast & Franz Josef Glacier, New Zealand
An adventurous and beautifully-filming premier in scenic location of NZ. Included skydiving into the glacier and the Pit Stop placing somewhere along the beyond-reality of West Coast seemed perfect to attract the viewer from the start. Following with TBC to torture the team with forever self-driving. <3

Leg 2: Mt.Cook, Queenstown & Dunedin, New Zealand
Driving overnight across the south island of NZ then spark up with the scenic Mt.Cook and adrenaline-rushing Detour in Queenstown. Before ended the leg with difficult detail-oriented cultural task in the beautiful city of Dunedin with the Pit Stop.

Leg 3: Dunedin, New Zealand -> Suva & Nadi, Fiji
Short cultural South Pacific leg with the Mud Pool involved as a task. <3

Leg 4: Monuriki Island, Fiji
Physical leg with several torturing task involved swimming, kayaking and navigating on the boat in the middle of Pacific. The Pit Stop hided in the secret cave on this island. <3

Leg 5: Monuriki Island, Fiji -> Medan, Indonesia

Hot and humid South East Asian leg with chaotic market task and crazy language-barrier.

Leg 6: Medan, Indonesia -> Doha, Qatar

Evening-to-Night Urban leg with crazy self-driving. Floating tennis court FF with both team member have to keep playing and avoid losing their tennis ball into the open water for a period to get their FF. <33

Leg 7: Doha, Qatar -> Klaipeda, Lithuania
Baltic coastal leg with the highlight of Hill of Crosses as a mentally-challenging RB. Then TBC again. <3

Leg 8: Klaipeda, Lithuania -> Riga, Latvia
Drive across country into Latvia. Easter European City leg with team spending almost all leg navigating themselves on bike in Riga.

Leg 9: Riga, Latvia -> Lleida, Spain
Fabulous mountain and ski resort to film. This will show the new aspect of Spain with snowy mountain range... before another TBC yet again. <3

Leg 10: Melilla, Spain
Spanish harbor leg with the old city. Teams are required to walk on foot almost an entire leg. And welcome to Africa at the end of the race. <3

Leg 11: Melilla, Spain -> Lome, Togo

Western Africa as a penultimate. <3 Crazy leg at the grand market with the showcase of voodoo culture. <3

Leg 12: Lome, Togo -> Chicago, Illinois, USA
Finally a well-deserved Chicago as a finale. <3 Let them fight for the million along the stunning skyline of Chicago before crossing the finish line at night.

5 Continents, 9 Countries with 4 new countries and more than 30,000 miles. :)

I love this route! :D

Season 30 wishlist (probably a second chance themed race, 27 candidates (9 M/M, 9 F/M and 9 F/F per production) to be part in the voting poll that will be decide for 11 chosen finalists by fan-vote).

Link for S29 wishlist: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15213.msg1157745.html#msg1157745

Starting line: Solvang, California, USA
Beautiful Danish landscape in the Pacific coast with cozy architecture.

Leg 1: Melbourne, Australia
Tasks will involve with cricket and rugby (both popular Australian sports in which Melbourne is Australia's sporting capital). Pit Stop probably in Federation Square. Australia is really an overdue and was last visited in season 18.

Leg 2: Melbourne, Australia
This leg involving airplane acrobat task in a town of Lilydale, northeast of Melbourne. Pit Stop will be in Royal Exhibition Building.

Leg 3: Taipei, Taiwan
Involves making sky lanterns. Pit Stop at Taipei Astronomical Museum.

Leg 4: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Fly to another Chinese-populated country in Southeast Asia, that would involve multicultural diversities. KL Tower beside Bukit Nanas Forest would be an awesome Pit Stop (reliving of the very first TAR Asia episode).

Leg 5: Siem Reap, Cambodia
Revisiting the notable historical temples of Siem Reap, mainly Angkor Wat and eat local delicacies like fried cockroaches. Pit Stop at Baphuon Temple.

Leg 6: Franschhoek/Stellenbosch, South Africa
South African winery leg. Pit Stop at Huguenot Monument in Franschhoek. Like Australia, its also very overdue and haven't visited in a long time since season 7.

Leg 7: Cape Town, South Africa
More touristy leg including the famous Victoria & Alfred Waterfront. Pit Stop will most likely at Rhodes Memorial.

Leg 8: Athens, Greece
Making Greek pottery and learning Ancient Greek gods + mythologies. Pit Stop either at the Acropolis or Mount Lycabettus. Another overdue country.

Leg 9: Ljubljana, Slovenia
I would wonder that Slovenia will get its first visit on the franchise. Probably will going to take mountain-related tasks in Triglav and Lake Bled would be cool as the Pit Stop location.

Leg 10: Venice/Padua, Italy
Gondolier tasks and a visit to famous pristine churches in Italy. City hasn't visited since TAR 4.

Leg 11: Cali, Colombia
After a huge successful first Colombian visit in Cartagena, this beautiful Colombian city would be more awesome. Cali is known as the Salsa capital of the World would involve popular Salsa dance. A great penultimate South American leg.

Leg 12: Houston, Texas, USA
Houston is a great place to visit and its more people than other Texan cities (Dallas, Austin, Fort Worth and San Antonio). Finish line will be probably at San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site around USS Texas.

LIST

LEG 1: Solvang, California, USA - Melbourne, Australia
LEG 2: Melbourne, Australia
LEG 3: Melbourne, Australia - Taipei, Taiwan
LEG 4: Taipei, Taiwan - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
LEG 5: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia - Siem Reap, Cambodia

please no Melbourne, I lived there for 3 years, it's the most boring place on earth. The leg would be extremely bad. Victoria is good, but Melbourne, NO.

That'd work too, so when they do an all-star season, there will be enough contestants from both countries. :lol: Though, it'd be more interesting to have people from the whole continent join. :)

Despite this wishlist thread being called locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks and prophetic dreams! It's usually just locations and twists, but I know this sounds like a horrible idea, but I would love to see teams choose what penalty they want to endure once they reach the Pit Stop mat. So teams who either know they have a penalty or finding out should choose between taking the penalty at the mat right then or, either check in without the penalty and be handcuffed together for the next leg of the race, having no sleep during their 12 hour rest, etc. I think that this would not make penalty's so fatal and teams can decide which way their game lands.

With the (not so) recent introduction of the F4 Finale + MPE Twist, I'd like to see International versions apply this with the Salvage Pass.
If it's used to save a team, the F4 Finale + MPE Twist will happen, while everything stays as usual if not.

TAR Australia (& Oceania) 4 Route Wishlist:

Leg 1:Tasmania, Australia-->Bora Bora, French PolynesiaF11NEL
Leg 2:Bora Bora, French Polynesia-->Acapulco, MexicoF11EL

Leg 11:Tbilisi, Georgia-->Osaka, JapanF5EL
Leg 12:Osaka, Japan-->Seoul, South KoreaF4EL
Leg 12:Seoul --> Busan, South Korea-->Brisbane, AustraliaF4EL

Besides the home country and France (but it was Mainland France back then), all the countries have not been visited by TAR Australia. (With the budget though, I don't think having 6 continents is possible.) The countries I've selected are countries that I think have different sceneries and cultures compared to the ones visited in the 3 seasons of TAR Australia.
