I'm not so sure about that   :(  I think the place I picked is unrelated.  Slowhatch's photo find is a perfect match.

I still can't find that building around the Wat though  (:;)  It is hiding from me.

So why are Zev & Justin begging in the airport if they haven't lost their passports yet? That's what I want to know. :duno:

I can't tell you the answer for sure, Hooky. However, I can give you a highly likely hypothesis for it. Amazing Race teams like to develop a pool of strategic funds so they can hire taxis for follow, or reward a taxi driver with a big bonus or have snacks whenever they travel or to just buy things like guidebooks and maps that can be very helpful. In order to obtain that, begging is all that is available to them except for the occasional pole dance (Rovillson in ARA2 in Frankfurt while waiting for a train).

Aren't they like issued a fanny pack for their passports/clues, which they have to like keep with them at all times?

My understanding is that begging for money at airports is against Race rules.

Hmm..."one team monkeys around and breaks a cardinal rule". Could it be that the team lost their passport during the monkey task? And could one team refer to Zev & Justin only doing the monkey task, making it a possible Detour? (I don't read much of the spoilers by the way, so I might be wrong)

It looks like the Roadblock to me? We see Herb,Canaan,Ericka,Dan,Zev with the monkey mask, the others I'm not sure. Plus there are plenty on monkeys in Phnom Penh.

And my understanding that it against Amazing Race rules only for the 2 U.S. airports that teams hit most seasons (all but AR8). It is allowed at all foriegn airports except in countries where begging is prohibited liek the United Kingdom and Bangladesh.
