EP 3: Oh, Wow! It's Like One of Those Things You See on TV!
woden:
Two legs in Vietnam makes sense with the route spec and knocks out the first NZ sighting (the couple on a plane on June 2). We need a TBC and a NEL before Kuwait to make the Kuwait sightings fit. We should have 4 episodes before Kuwait, and we only need to get rid of 2 teams (Tom/Terry and Duke/Lauren). All other 7 teams are accounted for in Kuwait.
It's possible there may only be 3 episodes before Kuwait with some extended pitstops -- in that case, I bet we have a TBC this week or next and no NELs quite yet.
woden:
Maybe something like this for the next few legs? I can see production interested in mugging a team right before the super-long TBC leg. Could make things interesting.

My neighbors are Vietnameses so they can translate anything for us. Here's one:
"Hương Vị Việt Nam" = the flavor of Viet Nam; it's a small restaurant; "Thuy Ta" is just a name of a business
at the top of the building is a propaganda: "Đảng Cộng Sản Việt Nam quang vinh muôn năm" = Vietnamese Communist Party shining forever
