TAR 23 Speculation and Discussion **of Spoilers**
theschnauzers:
One thing to keep in mind is that tourists and visitors fall off the global grid in Myanmar, so it is possible for the Race to slip in and out without contemporaneous eyewitness accounts. We'd only see something once visitors were outside the country, and regain access to the internet.

I will not give up on Myanmar! It's too exciting :cheer:
What if they went to Myanmar, but they didn't have a pit stop, and they only did a roadblock/detour and/or miscellaneous task? They've done it before (Tar 14 leg 2; Tar 18 leg 9; Tar 9 leg 6; & Tar 7 finale).
So maybe the route will go like this:
Leg 7: Abu Dhabi, UAE
Leg 8: Abu Dhabi, UAE
Leg 9: Abu Dhabi UAE --> Yangon, Myanmar --> Bandung, Indonesia
I really hope Myanmar is visited- they haven't (technically) visited any new countries since Tar 20! (French Polynesia is a territory of France & Northern Ireland is part of the UK). It's making me mad :gaah:

Apparently there are two Padaungs in Myanmar- one is a small village in the north, home to the Kayan ethnic group {http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Padaung_(village)}. The other is in central Myanmar, about halfway between Yangon & Nay Pyi Taw (I looked Padaung up on Google Earth and I found this one)- the one in central Myanmar is home to a couple of temples, but noting else major, at least that I could see.

From what I understand, if they visited Myanmar, it would be leg 8, replacing the second leg in Abu Dhabi. But this is all spec, and should go in the spec thread.
