Can someone from the Philippines call the restaurant? I love to call them but I realized that I have insufficient balance. Here's their number (I don't know if it's updated, but it's the number the internet is offering us) 0933 434 0540/ For international calls: use +63, replacing the first "0"

Here's the catch: After Cavite, they might go to Taal Volcano in Batangas, a nearby place. Activities include trekking and adventure extremes. Or they might visit Boracay or Palawan afterwards. Remember, last season 5, they visited El Nido? Hopefully, they will not recycle the tasks during TARAussie 2 and TAR Ukraine.
They MUST recycle Jig or Pig!  :yess:

No way! It may look like bland already. New challenges should be!

I dont know where to post but can the timeline be updated with Kym & Alli safe until Philippines???

Oval will do that when he is here. No need to rush ^^

Yup, can't be on 24/7 to update, so sometimes you'll just need to wait till I get a chance to get on. But once I have updated, feel free to post in the timeline thread about anything I've missing or is incorrect...

Just looking now, but I can only see Kym/Alli are safe TO Singapore -- if they've been sighted beyond, can you link me??

If Cavite is confirmed, Racers may just be arriving from now until 9am (Phil. time) at Rosario, maybe the shoot was a setup for the next task. So, a possible Bamboo Organ location in Las Pinas (a place in Manila near Bacoor, Cavite, NAIA airport and Baclaran church)

Is that sighting consistent with the restaurant mentioned in the clue from the church?

We need to be careful without eyewitness or photographs.

Maybe bland to some TAR fans like us who've seen the others.
But not the 10 million US viewers who probably don't even know TARA, TARAu, or TARPh even exist. hehe

...

So from Rosario's Filipino breakfast back to St. Joseph Church in Las Pinas?

And just to note, the bamboo organ is not at Baclaran Church, the location of the first Route Marker.

Then a possibility of a new location! Hell yeah! Fly or ride a bus? Somewhere rural?

Of course, there is still that possibility. Up until now, I can say that this leg is a NEL. Since they are just wandering in the outskirts of Metro Manila. I still hope a Northern Philippines appearance here. Am not losing hope  :hoot:

Northern PH is experiencing bad weather, that might not push through. From intense heat to torrential rains. Visayas is a big probability. Mindanao is a bit rainy and also with flooding going on. Let's not lose hope!

In the new picture, I see the sign in the back and it says "To National Shrine of Our Mother of Perpetual Help" which is Baclaran Church and also arrow to Roxas Blvd, where the church is on.

So that picture is likely from Baclaran.

ETA: That building is the side of the church:

There is no Bamboo Organ mentioned in the clue from the church.. The instagram caption has "yata", meaning he is not sure..

Remember the news article years ago that TAR will have a leg in Ilocos?

Mindanao is less likely than the north though considering the tension there and existing travel warning.

 That did not pushed through. Maybe now. Blame it on the tourism board. No spoilers is a big must for the producers.

Curious, after getting their clues at the church, the teams don't seem to be in a big hurry.   ???  In fact, they look like they're out on a Sunday stroll.   :res:   Maybe they're not big eating fans.   :funny:  Go figure.   :tantrum

Remember TARPH, when they went to Baguio with the monsoon rain? Haha! Frankly speaking now? I think Baguio is a strong candidate for the next leg (if the current leg is Leg 10)

That's why I translated it as "we think". Haha.
Can you give me the link about that news article? Maybe that's for another version of TAR? TARPH had a leg in Vigan.

So it'll be a busy morning in Manila.  If they Race back into Manila/Quezon City, they may just run into the big brouhaha with Senator Bong Revilla turning himself in/MARCHING to the court. lol

Plus, the usual traffic jam in the Metro. Traffic will play a big factor :funny:
We may see meltdowns again. :funny:

Even if this is likely a NEL, how crazy would it be if a team got eliminated because they end up stuck in traffic caused by Janet Napoles. :funny:

...

If they stay in the Metro for this Leg, maybe the Pit Stop at a big landmark? Like an Intramurous or Luneta/Rizal Park or CCP or Manila Post Office?

It reminds me of TAR5's Jeepney ARI. :P

But it DEFINITELY looks like an RB!

I was actually even expecting them to do another jeepney assembling task, but tricycles are definitely the next logical alternative. lol

I thought it looked like a Road Block too, but it looks like both Amy and Mya are doing the task?  I hope it's an ARI and not a Detour.
