The Amazing Race Asia 2 **Spoiler Thread**

July 10 may be Tokyo, but it could also be other large Japanese cities such as Oaska or Nagoya.

I still believe that a stop in Seoul is quite logical for ARA2.

I think the question of where is the building in the picture of Yves Simard filming in front of the sign might be approachable via the logo on either side of the sign. It clearly says 4F on the bottom. What is above that is not distinct. It may be a hat on a person or on an animal. It's hard to tell. If anyone can blow that up and get a close look at it, it might yield better clues as to where that building is. To me it looks like an amusement arcade, of which there would be many in metropolitan areas of multi million population.

Slowhatch:
You're right, there's a couple of things we might be able to shoehorn into that calendar slot: Seoul (taken 15 July) and the Rotorua sightings. Are both TARA2? Maybe... ???

* 06 July Manila
* 07 July Singapore
* 10 July Tokyo
* 16-17 July Prague
* 19 July BudapestIf the dates are off, at least we have a start at fixing the relative order.

OK, got it; they're standing just below the Freedom statue at the Citadel on Gellert hill in Budapest. (VR source here)

I went back to Slowhatch's post of July 23 about Rotorua, in which he references two blogs about the Amazing Race at Hell's Gate mud baths. The first dated Friday 7/13 is not definitive about which day she actually went to Hell's Gate. You might assume it was the date of the blog, but that is probably not true. The second one on Saturday 7/14 is definitive about having been in Rotorua only on July 8, 9, and 10 (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday) and seen the Amazing Race at Hell's Gate. To me this makes it clear that the Amazing Race was in Rotorua on July 10. It therefore could not be in Tokyo at the same time! However Tokyo or another Japanese supercity could have been the next stop, as there was time to do so and still get to Prague by the evening of July 16. Or it could have been a stop before Seoul at the end of the race.

Here is the link to the definitive blog:
