SOpot is spec'd as the PitStop of the last leg...didn't you post it??

Oh. No! I didn't post it but I did get information from instagram that the Pit Stop was at the Pier. There is a bunch of pictures of filming crews at the Pier but it doesn't look like the race to me. I am not sure.

Do WE have any of those pics posted? ???

Aren't the football players, metalheads, and brunette girls safe past leg 1 as well (both M/M teams spotted in Santiago and brunettes spotted in Santiago airport on the way to Lisbon)?

There's certainly nothing else to be done at Sopot other than to have the Pit Stop on a pier!

(Tiny voice: I raced a friend down the pier too back in March...)

And guess what, the Sheraton (there isn't one in Gdansk itself) is right there.

The Pier is right in front of the Grand Hotel (which is right next to the Sheraton). Which from what I've read and heard is popular in Poland also.

I unfortunately can't reply to Georgia Peach's message since his/her inbox is full, but I just posted two more pictures of my encounter in the Santiago airport here: http://s1335.photobucket.com/user/TARChile/library/

They weren't very good quality and I didn't want to splash their faces across the internet, so I didn't upload them at first though. I think now you guys might be able to use them, though, so I whited out their faces, and added the photos to PB!

Pure spec here, but I think we are done with Europe after Austria. The only other thing I could see would be a leg in a city with more connections and flight options to Asia than Vienna. But only one more Europe leg at the most.

Maybe Declive thought that it's a Switchback from the "Quick and Easy Meal" task back on TAR 18 based on the photo that Alenaveda found. It's just a speculation because I don't know whether the photo was taken in Austria or Poland. :)

Yup, its not a segway, that is just part of the rig, so it can be mobile while doing sweeping shots and not stay static, looks like Phil is on the controls lol

Team Duck Dynasty and the older couple were the only ones not spotted past leg 2, am I right?
And who were spotted on leg 6 (Vienna)?

It is hard to identify in the pictures in live sightings, but in Poland we see probably the Afghanimals as statues, we see Tim and Marie (of the pink hair) reading a clue, we are told the father/son are there, at least 1 FF did the statues.
In the next leg in Vienna, we see at a table the MF Afro-American team of the green bandanas, at Schonbrunn Palace the baseball wives and Tim and Marie.
In Sweden we saw MF team Boston.
The tables in Vienna? say there are 4 teams, but I could only identify one. There was a blondish, but I do not know if it was cheerleader or baseball wife.

Actually, we haven't spotted Team 11 either. But they are safe on Leg 1 because we have a picture of them at that Pit Stop talking with other teams.

However, I am getting a feeling that Team 11 is the Father/Son team. If it's not Team 11, then I don't know which M/M team it would be!
