TAR 19 EP 5 "I Feel Like I'm in the Circus" (Bangkok, Thailand)
Katarzyna:
The Bangkok part of the leg is so random. They traveled for more than 10 hours for a fish feeding :lol:
theschnauzers:
I got the impression that the only reason Bangkok is the pit stop has to do with getting teams to Malawi.
It may be a leg was planned originally elsewhere in Thailand with the same pit stop, or that Bangkok was part of the last minute switch.
I wonder if we'll ever get the actual story.

yea the only info i had was that it was a wat chan... with it being a really long 11-12 letter c word. sorry everyone if i slowed you down with my BIG double roadblock pictures. i was trying to drop a hint but none of you were having it..haha
Slowhatch:
After listening a few times, it sounds like "khlong song phraek." So whoever had Ton Pariwat for the elephants, step up and collect your prize. Also, the company name is probably "Anda Venture" (see here) I think if you zoom in with GE, you can actually see a few elephants near the kraal at the end of the road.

Let's hope the next one is better. I don't like these no skill, luck based legs.

The order of bus arrivals is explained by either of two potential explanations:
1. The overwhelming favorite is that the 3 first teams to arrive in time for 430pm departure did not check alternate bus companies and Express Buses, which is clearly the kind that Marcus/Amani, Bill/Cathi and Ernie/Cindy all got on for 530pm departure.
2. I have seen bus breakdowns (they tend to wear their tires to the limit) on either AR1, AR2, AR9 or AR14. That could have slowed down the 430pm bus.
