MORE FLIGHT INFO
In order to assure that the info in my aboev post is correct, I decided to run through all the major connecting points in ASIA to make sure none could land a flight into KUL earlier than 0605 on Sunday Dec. 10. Here is what I found out:
Singapore - much later
Bangkok - much later
Istanbul - much later
Bangalore - no flight arriving early on Sunday
Delhi - MH191 departing 2300 lands KUL 0655, but can't connect from KRK in time due to multiple connections needed
Mumbai - MH195 departing 2215 lands KUL 0545, but can't connect from KRK due to multiple connections needed
Chennai - MH 181 departing 2215 lands KUL 0440, but can't connect from KRK due to multiple connections needed; misses via Frankfurt by less than 1 hour

From Romeo's picture, it seems like they're similar to the ones that's found in puddin's link (the Chinese or Malay varieties - the Malay ones are referred to as Kuih Raya).
--- Quote ---georgiapeach -if there was a Yield--do you think you and your guys would have been able to see it? So they did steal the batik thing from TARAsia?
--- End quote ---
I think we would've seen it. I don't think any of us saw it (but we could always be wrong). The batik thing from TARAsia was of the decorative kind (where you draw the designs).. the batik thing from puddin's link are of the sarong kind (where the patterns are printed). Not exactly sure which one they did for TARAS, maybe Romeo knows.
--- Quote ---duchess - how far ahead was the BQ, when C/M finished the task, and how did C/M finish ahead of the rest of the teams when they switched tasks?
--- End quote ---
Between the time the BQs finished the roadblock and the time C/M finished theirs.. I believe the time was over an hour. I can't tell what happened after the roadblock (possible taxi problems, traffic etc)
--- Quote ---neobie - Newspaper collection? Oh, and public transport from KLIA to the city is tough enough (if you want to save money and skip the express rail service). From the city to Batu Caves using public transport? Close to impossible..! (Being the cheapskate backpacker I was, I tried searching and failed miserably...)
--- End quote ---
Wow.. good job on the newspaper collection thingy. And nice catch, by the way, Colby! It will be something similar to that. And OMG you are so right about using the public transport to Batu Caves.. I'm a local and I wouldn't do it if you paid me a million dollars. (okay I might - but it really is a pain in the ass).
puddin - good find on the batik and festive cookies! btw, the Pudding Johor in your avatar? Yum. Basically that's just pudding with good old English custard and fruit cocktails.
slowhatch - very nice work on the Google Earth points! And yes, Batu Caves IS under the clouds LOL
I hope I didn't miss anyone! I'm so impressed by all your spoilings! :jam:

So many wasted cookies... er, maybe not a lot since only Charla/Mirna seemed to have done this one. Thanks for that picture, Romeo. :happy:
Mirna does the Roadblock for this one, as well as that unaired Roadblock on Episode 7. Which means Mirna = 5, Charla = 3. Charla would have to do three of the last four Roadblocks, because of the 6 Roadblock per team member rule. I'm thinking if the Roadblocks aren't that physical, there is always a possibility that Charla would do well on those Roadblocks, and possibly help them to always place first (or second). However if the Roadblocks require lots of physical capability, this would be a good reason why they ultimately place 3rd in the final leg, especially if Charla performs the final, physically demanding Roadblock. :groan:
So now I wonder, was there a bike in the Roadblock that would've allowed Charla to do it? If not, then this would be like that Detour option in Mto Wa Mbu from TAR 5, wherein they had to go to a honey harvesting farm by bikes, and unfortunately (I think), Charla couldn't ride the bikes provided.

I just hope this wasn't a TBC leg, because that wouldn't really count as a first place!
