And we're up! (after being three minutes late)

Previously on The Amazing Race Asia...

Seven teams continued through Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

The temptation of a Fast Forward proved too good to resist for two teams. Tom & Anita exited early while Will & Alex couldn't get it together.

Treasuri & Louisa brought home their third consecutive win while the muscle brothers were left behind.

Six teams are left, who will be eliminated next?

gamerfan09 · « **Reply #2 on:** November 17, 2016, 07:06:26 AM »

Treasuri & Louisa depart first.

Route Info: Fly to Manila, Philippines. Once there, they must find the Grab station to receive their next clue.

Treasuri & Louisa say that the Philippine teams are tough and say that it will be a competitive leg.

Yvonne & Chloe depart and say that they are determined to beat Treasuri & Louisa.

Eric & Rona depart and say that they'll do well. "We'll kill it any time, any minute, and any day".

All other teams depart.

Everyone is now in Manila!

Treasuri & Louisa arrive first in Quiapo.

Eric & Rona arrive and immediately use their advantage in speaking the language to get it.

Yvonne & Chloe are confused at what to buy as they arrive.

Treasuri & Louisa wasted time at the wrong market! They bought inside when they had to be outside.

Parul & Maggie arrive and Maggie knows Quiapo. She says they have it!

Yvonne & Chloe are overwhelmed and lost.

JK & Mike arrive. Mike tells JK to stop yelling. JK can't help it. Mike is so done with JK

Platrium · « **Reply #7 on:** November 17, 2016, 07:22:34 AM »

Most likely bias, but I really like how the 1st 2 teams during the Manila task were Filipino teams.

I also like the temporary placements, with JK & Mike being ahead, and Yvonne & Chloe and Tres & Lou at the bottom half. The most surprising I think is Anita & Tom staying in last, and they're the only team on the last bus.

gamerfan09 · « **Reply #8 on:** November 17, 2016, 07:25:42 AM »

We're back from commercials. The first five teams depart.

Anita & Tom depart at a bus one hour behind.

One team member must zipline in a superman position and hit a target with a flour bomb to receive their next clue.

Anita & Tom arrive last. Anita is doing it.

gamerfan09 · « **Reply #9 on:** November 17, 2016, 07:30:42 AM »

The ARI was cool.

I like it.

The roadblock may have been recycled, but well, Jig and Pig waves hi.

Besides, the roadblock is challenging and good imo.

U-turn!

Parul & Maggie, please beat Trez & Lou!

(I'll use the spelling with 'z' now that I've clearly noticed the nickname spelling on their hashtag.)
