The team Boston girl has a blue backpack perhaps similar to the Norway sighting. Just saying.

I will never get this, lol.

Let's try this...WHat time did he see teams in Norway?

He said it was midnight when he saw them. If in Svolvaer then it is almost 100% certain they visited 'Magic Ice' - World’s first Ice Gallery and Bar http://www.magicice.no/

Not a bad fact, but I have never ever thought WRP will count seasons like that to make the route. #justsaying

Leg4 JUNE 16 Portugal>>Spain

Tought about it, but think it will not happen... Even though next to Portugal there are zones from Spain were few people live, and few people tweet, so it could be still a chance for them to not go spoiled.

I went to wiki to look and see, And WOW! I had totally forgotten that they had done SIntra before, lol!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Amazing_Race_3#Leg_4_.28Scotland.2C_UK_.E2.86.92_Portugal.29

Not super exactly though! They went to Cabo da Roca (via Cascais by train for some teams) which is in Sintra municipality, but still 45min by bus away from Sintra town itself.

Don't say no to Spain just because one person tweeted. They have been to big cities where we haven't gotten any tweets. It's not a matter of population and internet access, it's more a matter of people just not caring to report it or not really knowing what's going on.

We've got to think outside of the box to figure not just 'The Amazing Race' words that we're looking for out there :js:

search the possible towns/location. Use keywords such as filming/cameras/backpacks/race also.

While Twitter is all powerful (and by extension Instagram)...it is not everywhere. Don't ignore the old standbys of flickr, and picasa!

Facebook is much harder to search than before, "amazing race" is nearly useless, so be creative. And if anyone has a good tool for that, do share!!

Thanks everyone!!

With teams being spotted in Santiago on June 14th and Lisbon on June 15th, I think it's safe to assume that Portugal would be Leg 3

And as popular as both Facebook and Twitter are, don't leave out the live bloggers especially for travelers who aren't as into the new new media.

Meanwhile, there's a new post from a new poster "TAR Chile" with links to his own photos that place Racers at the Santiago airport on Friday morning, and that some of them boarded a flight to Buenos Aires. (A quick glance of the photos posted do show people with backpacks being filmed by a camera crew. And the cover story he was told "travel documentary" and that they didn't know where they were going, are old standby cover stories that we've been hearing for a decade.)

This may help us refine the flights to Lisbon and may help piece together the timeline last week, more and more pointing to an extended pitstop in Santiago after the first two legs.

Apparently Jimmer and I posted at the same time, and I'm pretty sure he's referring to the information TARChile posted.

By the way, there's an old shipyard anchored by the side of the river at Gdansk... More pit stops beside the big old ships?! #purespec

Another one:

http://web.stagram.com/p/481722192195536024_276263888

    aniaczi #AmazingRace in #Poland #Gdańsk. ! :)   5min

I asked her about it and she said teams had to earn something around 50 zlotys. She said there was a F/F team that was doing it and they were successful and there was also apparently a "father/son" team. (I am not sure who that might be). She also said there were spots for 8 teams and that the "father/son" team were saying something about a "U-Turn".

This is very interesting!  Now we know that at least one F/F team and one M/M team that made it to Poland!  Also, we know that probably 8 teams made it to Poland.

Can we please get an update to that timeline so we have a better look at the route so far?
