There is a conflict of times that is bothering me. I have believed that the "end of the pier" activity in Hong Kong was on Wed. May 28. This is based on the blog which has a picture of the place where allan Wu was sighted and states "Thursday, May 29, 2008 Its 107am, Hong Kong.", which means that the sighting was May 28. However, other photos appear to indicate that the event took place on Thursday May 28. Which is it?

Based on blogs we have this:

May 28 Hong Kong (blog mention of Allen Wu sighting)
           source: BLOG posted HERE  Thanks to puddin!

May 29  Hong Kong (blog mention of team sighting)
            source: POST   Thanks to kaad!

But the Exif data on the Stanley Pier (first blogger) is for 5/29, per puddin!
http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,15379.msg304557.html#msg304557

And then we have the Macau sighting  for 5/30...

So the easiest thing would be to assume our Stanley blogger has her dates wrong and that she really saw them on 5/29... but I do hate to discount a bloggers own times...hopefully the camera is set correctly.  :ascared

If all that is correct, then either Hue or Taiwan should be an extended Pitstop too, right? We have no actual dates for Taiwan, so it could be 5/26-27 or 5/27-28 just as well...

Or we need to go one more place from Taiwan before HK. A TBC?

We had also been suggesting that Macau was an extended Pitstop since teams are seen on the way to Cochin on 6/1.

I'll have to double check all this later on, today my brain is fried... :res:

After 4 consecutive eliminations, scenes showing the 4 teams eliminated.

On the next amazing race asia...Ep 5

Tension moves over the teams. And relationships hang by a thin thread. Scenes show Henry and Bernie & Geoff and Tisha & Mai and Oliver

Tisha to Geoff : " We are so over after this".

And what happens when Allan comes knocking.

Scene showing Allan knocking on a car door and asking the person to come out.

Any location hints?? Should be HK we think...  But remotely possible to squeeze in one more place if no extended pitstops...

Yea, I'm going with the hours of operation elimination, example from season 2, ep 3, Brett and Kinar were eliminated AT the detour which wasnt open.

Oh god this is so freaking exciting ;D

Can anybody put up some videocaps of ep5 preview?

Based on what I see in the preview, I saw nothing about Hong Kong but quite a lot in Taipei.
The scene with Geoff and Tisha(???) is at the SOGO shopping mall I guess.

Oh THANK YOU! I was just trying some crummy ones!!  :hearts:

So where are we? Still in Taiwan?

Those twisty lamp poles should be findable?

Schwartzmoor gives us a mall :yess:

Unless Hue had an extended Pitstop (doubt) this filming should be the 26-27th.

Hong Kong is the 29th we think.  (some low possibility of the 28th)

Are we getting a second Taiwan leg? ???

Is someone screwed? Can't be good if Allen comes to you.... :'(

Where Mai and Oliver are looking puzzled--are those TV screens? or what? What is that image on the bottom? What does 46x mean?

Can we figure out who is in what car? :duno:

Regardless of everything else that has already been said, my visits to Hong Kong twice and Taiwan once lead me to believe that the photos we are looking at are Taiwan for a second leg.
