TAR 19 EP 2 "The Sprint Of Our Life" (Indonesia)
Declive:
I think that just me dont like Mallory...IN THE WORLD
Dom:
Okay, so seeing as I'm in Yogyakarta right now, and not sure if I'll be here after Episode 2 comes out (I did the same train journey as the teams, Gambir, Jakarta to Tugu, Jogja! The trains were really luxurious..), I figured I'd try and see some of the locations we know about already. I failed spectacularly.
I aimed for all the locations in Legs 2 & 3 that were in the immediate vicinity of Yogyakarta:
2 detour locations in Leg 2, both on Malioboro.
Leg 2 Pit Stop: Sultanate Palace.
Leg 3 Route Info: the bird market.
The last two are inside the Kraton, which as I found out, closes at midday. I'll try again tomorrow though!
For the parking detour, first I found the spot where the photo below was taken:
There were at least 6 or 7 guys working the 'parking lot' (actually just a regular sidewalk with scooters everywhere) wearing the same uniform that Laurence and Zac are wearing above. However, not one of them could understand English, so I was unable to find out who was in charge or where the head office of this operation was.
Next, only about 500m down the road is the spot where this photo was taken:
There was nothing nearby that would have offered anything like the dancing on a regular basis, so that too was a dead end.
Not my best day of detecting! Here's hoping tomorrow's visit to Kraton will be more fruitful.
(As a side note, the first post of the 'Timeline' thread states that the Sunderlands were seen performing this dance task, yet we also see them parking, so I guess they must have switched detours.)
