Pre TAR15 Discussion

--- Quote from: apskip on May 03, 2009, 01:56:53 PM ---The actual history of Amazing Race starts in California is:
AR4 - Los Angeles
AR5 - Santa Monica
AR7 - Long Beach
AR12, 13, and 14 - Los Angeles
I consider Long Beach and Santa Monica (completely surrounded except for the ocean by the city of Los Angeles) to be greater Los Angeles
So major california metropolitan areas never hosting thet start of an Amazing Race are:
San Francisco
Sacramento
San Jose
San Diego
Each one of those is important enough and has the air tranpsortation to get teams overseas without much difficulty. I think we will see one or mroe of those in AR15 through AR20

hehehe
San Jose FTW!! :hearts: :hearts:
you'd think i lived here or something... :funny:
Moo:
If TAR filming continues (well IT HAS TO (:;)) during the summer,
I think they won't be visiting countries in the Southern Hemisphere + South Africa... primarily because of flu season, (swine flu!)
Save Spain (Iberia), France or any place in Europe that is close to Spain, and Central America for future seasons... unless the cases of Swine Flu miraculously disappears.
I hope they go to Czech Republic and the Balkan States already... Sweden, Norway, Finland or maybe Iceland is the way to go... Another visit to India, SEAsia and China or Japan would be highly probable, and another 3 continent race may be seen...
AGAIN, there are SPECULATIONS ONLY.
DavidJunior:
I could see this race being very similar to S12:
North America-> Europe
Europe-> Africa
Africa-> Europe
Europe-> Asia
and then hopefully
Asia-> Oceania
Oceania-> U.S.A.
Possible locations:
Northern Europe (Scandanavia?, Low Countries?, British Isles?)
Czech Republic
Mali or Ghana
Balkan States (Serbia?, Montenegro?, Bulgaria?)
Middle East (Qatar?, Bahrain?, U.A.E.?)
India (again...)
SE Asia (hopefully something new like: Indonesia, Brunei, East Timor)
Australia
Polynesian Islands
Hopefully, this race will have more than 11 legs (with or without TBC legs)

I think you guys got this reversed.
Baltic States are Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia. In a stretch, I guess, you could include Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Poland, and Russia, since they all have shorelines on the Baltic Sea.
The Balkan states would be Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovinia, Bulgaria, Greece, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Croatia and parts of Slovenia, Romania, and Turkey.
apskip:
Dr. Rox has it right in his listing of the Baltic countries and the Balkan countries. The Scandanavian countries of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark are located on the Baltic Sea, but none of them are grouped as a Baltic country; they are Scandanavian countries.
