Had a cool job playing sax on a street corner for an episode of Amazing Race (France) yesterday, lol.



This was on 3 July in Paris.  (Is this TAR France?)


This was on 6 July in Wat Pho, Bangkok.

I saw that second picture from 3 July in Paris shortly after it was posted. I recall that being somewhere else in Europe (maybe Prague) but I could be wrong. At the time, I decided it was just a decorative banner that was red and yellow and didn't post about it. If it is in Paris, the timing would be right for the beginning of the race.

Plaidmoon:
I came across some information suggesting that during the Cape Town leg, TAR France may have had a task where the racers had to go diving in a shark cage and mingle with the sharks! I'm trying to get more details about this and will post it if I get anything more.

It is the Institut de France in Paris.  It is directly across the river from the Louvre.  The bridge in the foreground is the pont des Arts.

boston_jen:
The bridge is lined with "love locks" left by people who want to leave a symbol of their eternal love.  The city cut all of the locks off back in 2010, but the tradition continued, and the city backed down.  In the picture from July 3 we see the locks are quite numerous again.  Perhaps it's a "key" to a starting line task?

Plaidmoon:
Boston_Jen, I stand corrected. I guess I was wrong about that. It still looks too quiet for a TAR shoot, but I do see what could be a couple of gear bags on the left side of the bridge. The "love locks" could make for an interesting starting line task. I look forward to seeing what TAR France has done.
