it's driving me freaking nuts,where the heck are the teams right now  :'( :'( :'(

:lol: This is the effect of the major spoilage in Sydney. :lol:

 :groan:

Sorry for flying up there and following them around then!

 :colealert:

No! I don't blame you Coutzy! :'( I meant that we got excited and then that excitement went downhill because the teams are now atm hard to be traced.

I agree, we had to know that we were going to have to come down off of that. The fun part will be connecting where they resurface to Tokyo.

More of a contextual translation (I'm not 100% sure):

Since morning [something about Americans]. I told a superior during break: "Isn't it The Amazing Race?!" It was an American Show that I watched last month in Cairns. The parent & child I talked to boarded the HP [or boarded in HP].

Thanks Danooky!! We never would have figured that one out, Google is terrible with Asian languages.  :lol:

It seems like that this person may have seen the Race on the way to work and confirmed it by asking a superior. I wonder of there was a possible double stop in Japan b/c this seems too delayed to be from the 25th.

Yes, but the better translation states that they are up on the website right now, so that would mean Gary and Mallory.

If it is Kunming/LiJiang, I can see the high altitude come into play on how well the teams do.

Lijiang is very touristy, so hopefully there will be sightings. & the nearest international airport from there is Kunming, so maybe they'll go back there again to fly out of the country.

Jaime & Cara, the redheaded cheerleaders from TAR14.  China was their hardest country to get through due to Jaime not adjusting well enough to the language barrier.

All I care if Kynt and Vyxsin get to the next leg.

If they're out there, they'll surely b spotted.

Since they don't have a obvious feature on appearance than other teams.I think we should worry cowboy,basketball player,goth more.

Very true. Only a maximum of 2 teams have been eliminated in Japan, though.

I  Speculate Black Dragon Pool  will be their first destination...since they can film Jade dragon snow mountain(one of Lijiang's symbol,but it's too far from downtown of Lijiang,so Idon't think they will go) in crew...and it will open at 8:00,since teams look like taking two trains to Lijiang,maybe a time bunching.

Fairly sure Mel & Mike will be one of them.  I'd be surprised if Mel's old age doesn't catch with him.  He was sixty-eight when he ran TAR14.  He's gotta be seventy for this race.  Don't know who the other will be, though.

I agree!whilst Mel surprised me in TAR14 with his fitness,I just feel that the other teams are too strong this year.I just hope the cowboys are still in it!!
