Great job on the grain guy puddin!

Since the photos really focus in on the sledge, the HOOK, and the large grain sacks--I'll bet they are doing some hauling!

So you want to talk about the pictures in this thread so moving on....for New Delhi I found this:
Radhey Shiam Balkishan & Sons
Since its production maybe the "grains" is a task? These are dated May 7 but we decided that its May 8th? I'm confused on the dates.

puddin, if you wish to be less confused on timing, consult the latest Timetable in the Timetables and Flight Information thread. We had the spotting of teams in Dubai airport on the morning of May 8 as indicated by JonLover(post 150 in this Spoilers thread). That could only happen if they left Delhi on May 7.

But the production/Delhi photos begin on May 6th and end on May 9th then pick up again on May 10th in Moscow. Did Matt/production hang around in Delhi extra days or was Delhi longer than we originally thought and Dubai not even in the picture? The evidence for Dubai/airport was not solid if I recall.

:welcome: beau

So I was thinking and could be totally off here but, :res:  ..could the sightings in Dubai have been TAR3? I'm thinking they started sooner than we originally thought?

eta: probably not TARA3 afterall, thanks apskips

I have spoken to the Dubai blogger and he could not really confirm the sighting at the airport. The "news" was passed on him only by a friend.

I did go out two weeks ago to have a little detective job but there was no affirmative answer of any TAR going to Dubai.

I went to almost all the famous landmarks around the city and asked some people working in the vicinity but they couldn't tell something about the TAR. I tried asking some people also at the airport and they were all puzzled and clueless. I also tried riding taxis to ask the drivers but to no avail.

boingo, New Delhi is totally separate from Delhi even though they are adjacent. It is possible that AR13 went to New Delhi, but the traditional India is on display in Delhi while New Delhi is more of a modern commercial city. As best I can tell, the visit of AR1, episode 7 was the only one previously to Delhi or New Delhi. AR1 teams (except for Frank and Margarita who went directly to the pitstop with the Fast Forward) landed at Indira Gandhi International Airport, definitely in New Delhi. Then they went to Old Delhi to visit a market. Next they went ot the Red Fort(still in Delhi), where the Chandi Chowk market is where they got their next clue, a statue of the Taj Mahal. This episode ended in Agra. Other visits to India by Amazing Races were:

AR4 Mumbai, Aleppy
AR5 Calcutta
AR7 Lucknow, Jodhpur
AR10 Chennai

I'm afraid I might have to cast extra doubt on Dubai...

The blog on Dubai, posted at 1.04am on May 8th, says "I didnt expect the news that i heard last night". If the timestamp belongs to Dubai or Philippines time, the sighting would have been on or before the 6th. Even if we use the generous US timezone, it would suggest the sighting was at least on the 7th.

Teams fly from Cambodia to India on the 6th (I'm reading this correctly, am I not?), arriving that evening in Delhi after most Hours of Operation. Is there any way we could make this work out?

Chateau? Post 504? :lol:

I never took Dubai as gospel Neobie  :sucks , I think they spend more time in Delhi/New Delhi per Matt's time that he spent in India. Now if only I could twist someones are to make me a little map of where Matt has been in New Delhi  :snicker:  :kuss:
