The Amazing Race Asia 3 Spoilers/Speculation
JonLover:
For sure, Puddin, you know that. :yess:
What I am saying here is what if that Beijing sighting is a local Chinese version and the Chiang Mai sighting is another local Thai version?

And our Chiang Mai blogger has sent a quick and wonderfully detailed response!

Hey Peach,
Well I'm definitely a little surprised that you some how found my one reference
to the amazing race in my blog. I'd love to know how you found it?
so the details that I have:
-There were three couples. one was two shorter women. they had black backpacks
on and on the packs were yellow stickers that had an army slogan (i.e. "you can
do it"). I remember them as wearing all black as well. They were rather short
5'5"or less and while I don't want to sound prejudicial my two friends that I
was traveling with (who are both gay) totally thought these two women were too.
i actually never saw their faces. i will fwd to my friends and see if they have
any info. the second couple i think was two younger (20s/30s)guys...will have
to double check. the third was definitely a guy and a girl (prob. dating).
they were both white. she had longer brown/black hair and was really skinny and
wearing a little tank top. he had a british accent b/c he's the one that said
"" i don't know what you're talking about" THey looked to be in their early
30s.
-We were at the Chiang Mai airport on May 22. Our flight was scheduled to land
around 2pm so I think that's roughly the time. Our bags were the first off the
carousel.
-We were the only flight in baggage claim at the time and I really really don't
think they were on our plane (it wasn't very full and I hope I would have
noticed them). They ran past us as we were waiting for our taxi to pull up at
the curb outside of baggage claim (they were running from right to left as you
have your back to the terminal...woah that's a lot of detail). Oddly the third
couple (guy/girl) were pushing their gear on a trolley and she was definitely
looking for something whereas the other two couples were just running by. I
also distinctly remember that they came from further down the curbside and not
from in the terminal...may help with the coming vs going issue. All three ran
past us to the end of the terminal. I was actually confused about whether they
were coming or going. i think I would eliminate coming but whether they were
going or passing through i can't tell you. the trolley thing threw me off.
I'll pass along anything else as it comes to me. Sorry no pics.
happy tracking!

And of course, I have already asked some more questions but please do let me know what else we want to know.
I think it is safe to say now that Chiang Mai was NOT a local race ! :yess:

Wow, georgiapeach. You rock! Nice one. That's great :jam:

An army sticker? No mention of camera crews following them and no Asians? I dunno it doesn't sound very TARA to me.
