What's more annoying is no Africa. My favorite races have been the ones w/ the 4 traditional continents: Europe, Africa, and Asia.

The only destination that makes no sense to me is Japan. Seems really out of the way...

Well, they went to Africa in TAR 17 and they don't usually travel there twice on a row.

It would be nice to see them touch every inhabitable continent at least once. :)

they did that in the fifth season. they started in NA, travelled for a long time in SA (Argentina and Uruguay to be exact), made their way to Russia (St. Petersburg!), flew to Africa and visited gorgeous Egypt and Tanzania, made a leap to Asia via UAE and India, then flew tragically down south to New Zealand, Oceania, and made a good return north to the Philippines, and then made their way to Canada and their end city in Texas. Woah!

--- Quote from: ~RealityTVistheBest~ on December 20, 2010, 12:45:57 PM ---To think of it the Allstars version also visited every continent

North America- USA
South America- Ecuador, Chile, Argentina
Africa- Tanzania, Mozambique
Europe- Poland
Asia-Malaysia, Hong Kong, Macau
Oceania-Guam

Not Australia.
I see what you mean though, there are different ways of defining the continents. I just looked up the continent of Australia on Wikipedia and it lists the highest point on the "continent" as being in Indonesia. I consider Indonesia and Guam part of Asia but obviously some do not. I also found that different parts of the world teach the continents differently so there is probably no right way.
