Amazing Encounter with the Amazing Race
A couple of days ago I found myself in the middle of a TV spectacular, by accident.
There's a TV programme called *The Amazing Race*usually filmed out of the US, where teams of two race each other around the world, following clues, and performing tasks. First home win US$1000000!!
We watch it here because of the interesting places that the teams visit, and the sights they see, and a couple of times they have been through New Zealand very briefly.
On Monday the wife and I with our two homestay students were taking a winter break and driving towards the town of Rotorua, when we took a tea stop in a town called Tirau. This town is famous for its information centre, which is a huge corrugated iron sheepdog, with an equally large sheep next door.
We stopped to fill with petrol next to the dog, and were amazed to see camera crews racing around, filming pairs of people who were also filling up identical Ford Territory cars.
Suddenly the penny dropped!! - there were the famous yellow and black clue envelopes being ripped open, and we were in the middle of the Race.
I paid for my fuel, and as I walked away one of the girls asked me some directions, so I finished up signing a waiver, and may well make a walk-on appearance in the programme - what a buzz!!
A little later we found ourselves at the Blue Lake in Rotorua, where there was a setup for one of their tasks - it'll be interesting to see what it looks like.
Special Asian edition we think - may screen around Christmas

Nice puddin! :happy:
The previous NZ info can be found in Slowhatch's post HERE and both blogs referred to tasks at Hell's Gate Rotorua. The second blog dated July 14 let's us localize the timeframe to July 8, 9, or 10, so these dates give us new tasks and locations within the same time frame.
The best part? Is this sentence

as that really helps us to be sure that this was TARA 2 and not TAR 12.

Way too much time on my hands peach :lol: One of these days, maybe just maybe I'll find our race :dancer:
