See how there is not much tweets or facebook posts about the race, they could have gone to a destination where there isn't much internet.

There's none at all!lol

I also suspect that safety in Sri Lanka is still a little iffy right now, even though the government seems to have smacked down the Tamils to a point of relatively low terrorism activity at the time of filming.

It's relatively safe, only thing might happen is  someone's fanny pack getting stolen or their fanny patted...

Hey all,

I don't know if it's been mentioned, but is it possible that they took a bus or a plane to Luang Prabang or Vientiane in Laos?  Kunming has direct flights to these cities, and it's been five legs without visiting a new country.  The routes are very popular the last time I checked, although I myself have never been on them.  The bus ride, if I remember correctly, is around 24 hours, but through absolutely gorgeous terrain.

He followed teams and took photo...I don't thnik he will lie...He heard production said India is next then his friend asked them:"Really?",production denied this right now and said they will know next destination until they went back to hotel...looked like India is very possible.

It' s been two days since they were last spotted. It's quite possible that they took a night flight to somewhere in Asia. Personally I would love if they took a long train ride, like those of old TAR, in India perhaps or in Vietnam. Does anybody know if there are any trains from Kunming to neighbouring countries?

They can travel by bus to Laos from Kunming.

A new country in TAR and one that would explain why there are no sightings (long trip, few tourists to spot them).

This is getting stressful
2 Teams could have bit the dust already and still no sighting
Anyone but Ron Chris/ Margie/Luke Mallory/Gary Goths
But I assume one of them is gone..

I don't know how credible is this, because it is dated 29th November.

From Twitter:

Watching Amazing Race shooting their 3rd episode in India. I miss incredible India!

There has not been any "3rd episode" (3rd leg) held in India.. this could be a lead.. let me go check.

The nearest similarity i can find to this would be the person might be referring to TARA Season 4 Episode 3, the leg was held in Sri Lanka.. and it's very easy to mix Sri Lanka and India up.

yeah so no india  let check with some india poeple that form india

Some fun winter weather hitting Europe right now - could make for interesting travel - if that's where they're headed next.
Lots of airport delays, closings and cancellations in the UK, Poland, Portugal, Germany, Spain.

That's why I don't think they are going to go to Central/Northern Europe. They probably go to Northern Africa or Southern Europe to finish the season up (after India or some other warm countries in between), or they hit Europe and then finish through South/Central America. If they had gone to Europe they wouldn't have started in late November. The weather is too unpredictable.
