Hey guys- I just thought of something that has been bugging me that just doesn't make sense. Last week I saw Phil on Rachel Ray's talk show. The show wasn't pretaped- how was Phil in the US between December 4-8th if he's supposed to be the host of allstars?

Was Phil around to promote the finale of TAR10?  I do not remember hearing that he was going to be on the usual shows.

I'm having trouble getting location information on the spoiler pix.

In GE it seems to be directly under a big cloud!   :groan:

It would help to get some more location pictures.  Already, from the camera times we have Charla and Mirna about 2 hours 40 min ahead of Eric & Danielle.  The Cha's shot was from a different camera set with the wrong date.  The shadows may help sort it out.  But I need to know which way is North!   :cmas11

Many of the places you listed they can't go too...Papua New Guinea, Israel, Mali, Nigeria, and Sierra Leone are too dangerous and now recently Fiji also with the military coup.

Also I guess your Canadian because Americans aren't allowed to go into Cuba and vice versa, because of the whole communism/dictatorship they haven't been able to go to Cuba since the 1960's.

I thought you couldnt go to Cuba directly from USA, no US flights can go to Cuba, however i thought you can go from connecting, like you could fly to London, and then go to Cuba.

Papua New Guinea i believe was in a interview with Phil as a place he would like to visit.  this interview was from right after AR7. 
Tel Aviv and Jereuslam Isreal i think are pretty safe, i know of tons of people that go to Isreal, i know someonw who went on a Honeymoon there, and got married, the race spending what 2 days there wouldnt be too dangerious.

And to be honest now a days what country is really "safe" to travel too?  USA has had what 4 plain hyjackings in one day, never heard of it anywhere else since, London bombings, and Spain bombings the race still goes to those places.

Fiji i still think is safe even with the coup.  Survivor finished filming there [even with the coup going on] they didnt ship out.  Real World also deff. went to Fiji a few years ago.

It doesnt really matter though.  I kind of just want them to go to Ireland, and Croatia the most!  They prolly wont though those places are better suited for good weather not almost winter weather.

Izad, so who arrived first, the Chas or the BQs?
Oh, and do you know anything that would give credit to the Hong Kong sighting? 
Quote
izad
In order of arrival at the route marker:

Charla/Mirna
(2 hour gap)
The Chas
(10 minutes gap)
The BQs
(30 minutes gap)
Eric/Danielle.

and no, on the Hong Kong sighting

eta: izad
Colby's right. The date on the other camera wasn't set properly.
The Chas arrived at exactly 10:00am which means they were pretty close with the BQs.
Though Charla/Mirna has a huge 2 hour lead, don't go nuts yet and discount the possibility of them having an equalizer after this route marke (as mentioned by TVIS).

The lat-long for the BatCave are easy enough to get from places like this. And judging from photos like this, which shows the freeway in the background, I'd guess (and it's only a guess) that the main staircase points NorthEast.
ETA: I wouldn't make much of the anomalous Kodak setting; a lot of electronic gizmos default to New Year's Day if the clock hasn't been set.

DUSTYGIRL, My source is confidential, but got it from someone in Hong Kong who actually saw them there. Regretfully, I have no other details and do not know the others teams there.


Could it be that Dustin and Kandice and Oswald and Danny are in Hong Kong as SEQUESTERVILLE?  That would mean that Charla and Mirna and Eric and Danielle and the unnamed 5th team are the final three.

Just supposing since TARAS seems to be going to all new places this time around.

Yeah you can really see her facial features thats Danielle no question.


As for the rumor of Hong Kong.  It is almost immpossible that 2 teams could be eliminated that quickly.  I might go back and check if we have ever had to legs that didn't require at least two days to film.

ANd depending on how far the they actually are in the race.  If Maylasia was leg, 8 or 9 most likely then its still possibe that all 5 teams are still in.  And most likely (99% at least four).

Some friends of mine are Peace Corps vols in Mozambique and claim that the race came through Maputo sometime between Thanksgiving and December 7. One of the destinations was the old Portuguese fort (pictured here: http://tabisite.com/gallery_af/mozambique/91af265.jpg). Unfortunately they didn't have any other details. This does seem consistent with the spoilers that teams were on their way to South Africa, as Maputo is usually reached through Joburg.

That's a pretty big window!  But good to know.

I guess I don't need to do time by shadows for the stairway shots.  I can't beat the Exif data.

I'm so happy they didn't see Romber.   :mas25

I can't wait to them standing right next to the mat when the winning team runs in!   :rotf:

Yuck.  I liked season 1 and 2 final four better.

I liked season's 5's final four better.

I really like Cha, cha.  I like Charla, I like Eric.  I am cool with Dustin & Kandice, I don't dsilike them just neither here nor there.  Probably would have liked them more if they didn't depend on so much local assistance.  Didn't like it when Rob & Amber did it and got famous for using more hten anyone up to that time, certainly didn't need to saa another team use it even more then they did.  Was neutral to the DD's.

But I hate Mirna.  Just didn't like her at all.

I wasn't a huge fan of 7, like almost the entire cast except for bottom feeder Ray, suck it up Deana.

But I wasn't that impressed with the routes or the tasks in that season.  I think its the worst season for tasks (well of course not counting Family Edition).

Tasks wise I loved season 2 the best.  But I only liked about half the cast.  Luckily most of them were in it for the long haul.

The Fort looks cool.
