DrRox:
Great job, Neobie.
That was my first thought.......I just couldnt find the right pic...
So they are being released from the Marina Barrage Pit Stop on the way to the airport to fly to Shanghai. Looks like dusk, since they land in Shanghai about sunup...well 6 am.

escalade - climbing
Dictionary: escalation, climbing, scaling, climb
More climbing or jumping off tall buildings is always fun to watch!
Did find this, but can't find a Pudong escalade building either.

Actually, Peach, escalade has 3 major meanings in English:
1. ascending
2. hill-climbing
3. escalation in an organizational sense, taking a problem up one level such as to a supervisor, a manager, director, or Vice President

Since we have the fashion task now, I am very hesitant about any Escalade task now....

I have been trying to find the spot we see in these promo pictures (thumbnails>>click-click) of what I am presuming is the noodle making, in an outside patio near the water.
We know that the noodle making is supposed to take place in Zhu Jia Jiao, a canal town known as the Tiny "Venice of the East" and one of the four ancient towns technically in the Qingpu District of Shanghai, but really right outside (1 hour drive).
In Zhu Jia Jiao, there is a a "bell tower" in the Yuanjin Buddhist Temple on No.187 of Chaohe Street, Zhujiajiao. It does appear to be near the water.
Do y'all think this looks like the tower seen in the background of the promo shot??
If so, using that address, can anyone figure out exactly where our noodles are being made?? :lol:

Following your lead I found this shot of the same building from the same location as the promo :lol:
