Come to think of it, it would make sense if the Beatles task involves tracking down each of theit homes and comming up with a significant number.

It did say in some of the articles I read they will be tracing the Beatles past:

retracing the early days of the Beatles and Beatles-centric puzzle in Liverpool, England

Fishing Boats
Dive Operators

SHANGHAI WHAT TO SEE AND DO

I was shocked to read that the first place the Shanghai tourism people want to send visitors is YuYuan Gardens. I have a bad taste in my mouth from AR5's very brief visit there.
The next two places are visiting the Bund (original mansions along the Huangpu River where the foreigners used to live and work) and the Shanghai Museum (Chinese bronzes, ceramics, painting, calligraphy, arts and crafts).
Shanghai would make a good place for an eating challenge involving seafood or some exotic Chinese culinary delights.

Shanghai is a metropolitan area of over 20 million people (17 million in the city itself, 5th to 10th largest metropolitan area in the world) depending on which source is used). There are lots of other less important things to see and do, including exploring the pockets of colonial architecture in the old French Concession, sampling the exploding restaurant and nightlife scene, or wandering the shopping streets.

Shanghai was visited by AR6, which went to YuYuan Gardens, to a tall building for a window washing at 40 stories high ROADBLOCK) and the very interesting DETOUR Bricks or Ice, both emphasizing serious physical labor.

Slowhatch:
GE does an adequate job with Valpo and Santiago; it does OK with PV, but the imagery is a little dated. Here's an outline map of PV; comparing it to this pano of Lourdes Grotto (the site has a lot of good PV panos), I'd guess the photog who took the pitstop pictures was standing near Pim's Pub.
The resolution isn't as good for Angostura. Here's a map of downtown and the surrounding neighborhoods. (Who knows, maybe they just picked up their cars there)
If you need maps with an address search, either Yellow (click Region V for Valpo and Region X for PV) or MapCity will do.
