Anyway, just finished watching on AXN-Asia (this morning live stream's not working for me :( )
I'd like to give some comments on this leg,
First of all, I love how this leg run!
From the design point of view, the first task to solve the riddle at the beginning of the leg is soo me! I wish they keep doing this once every 3/4 legs to figure out their next destination..
The detour location was amazing..!
I never thought before, that salt could be mined..all this time I only think that salt was filtered and processed from the sea-water.. :lol:
the detour task is ok, I love the brining one (not because all the girls were wearing bikinis..no, I'm not Leo :P ) , only the reading newspaper stuff is not really fit.. It will be much much better if while they floating and enjoying the bath tub, they must eat a local delicacy or some cookies.. It will create a different sense I guess..
The mid-travel by bus seems like Bangkok 2.0 TAR19,
only they did it better this time by doing RB instead of just feeding the fish frenzy..
The RB is just so-so, not bad, but yeah,
we have seen shoe-shining task, especially in Turkey, good thing this time they try to manuever it a little with the local culture by packing those racks.. Need a good organizing skill and not-too-hurry-and-panic condition so that the rack won't messed up or fell down..
As for the Pit Stop, they killed it, especially for the second group arrival..
Too bad they couldn't enjoy the view, and yet the Mat was moved from the wooden-bridge to the entrance of the park.. It just seemed not right to have a pit stop at national wild park at night.. too cold too dark to realize..
But overall, it was that little drama performed by the last group that attract audience's comments and makes this episode another win.. :)
cosmophobia:
LOVED the episode. Usually leg 2 is the most boring out of a season, this one was very dramatic even though it was an exact replica design-wise of a leg in Argentina a couple of seasons before.
The budget was very close to $600. Was it the largest budget yet for a leg?

If I remember right, teams have to pay for their own bus fare (only plane fares go on the race credit card) and I gotta imagine that 26 hour bus trip is not cheap.
