It's always cool to meet people at airports, but it's even cooler when those people are currently on the amazing race. #MetTheCameraManToo

He certainly was in Auschwitz/Krakow and at the delayed flights mess up at the airport!!!

I seriously doubt that TAR teams went anywhere near Auschwitz. I have a couple of reasons for this. 1) No sightings....if teams had gone to Auschwitz/Birkenau we would have probably seen 10x the amount of tweets that we saw for Schindler's factory. The concentration/death camps are just that much bigger tourist destinations. 2) Auschwitz/Birkenau are NOT located in Krakow, contrary to what was posted earlier. Auschwitz/Birkenau are located in the Polish city of Oswiecim. Depending on how one drives there, it is either 65-70 kms or 85-90 kms from Krakow.

No one has said, written or mentioned that the teams or the race were in, or went to Auschwitz. I clearly stated that HE (the author) was on a trip that took him to Auschwitz/Krakow (meaning the area), then the airport. If he only spotted the racers at the airport, and the airport only; how can you possibly conclude, from this single sighting, that the racers could have gone anywhere else but the airport? It is only through other sightings that we know the race went to Krakow's city centre and maybe Schindler's factory.

Liam did reply to me a few hours ago and he stated that he saw them at the airport in Krakow. Elsewhere, he did upload pictures taken at Auschwitz but there was no suggestion that he saw any TAR related activity there.
theschnauzers:
Since TAR 11 did have an memorial stop at Auschwitz, I don't see any reason why that would be repeated. Krakow however, is also the birthplace of Pope John Paul II, and there might have been something this time in Krakow, that wasn't possible then.
Also, please keep an eye on the tropical cyclones headed to China and the Philippines that may interfere with either flights or leg locations after India. One cyclone came ashore in southern China, and is headed towards Vietnam; the next one is headed in the general direction of Shanghai, is a much larger system, and is forecast to head towards Korea or Japan. And there's a third cyclone behind these two. And there's a tropical depression headed towards north of the Hawaiian Island chain, that may pose weather issues. It's been a long time since we've had these potential issues (TAR 8, and TAR 11 in Tanzania) but it is something to keep in mind in trying to find the next leg after India as well as flights and flight delays or re-routing.
georgiapeach:
Can someone work on identifying rwruck's exact location in the airport? (presumed Krakow)
remember that we have 2 very clear reports of 3 MF teams in Krakow. Traveling together. via Frankfurt.
For there to be more than those 3 teams together it must be pre their split to the two flights right?
Would be nice to confirm that sighting location

I haven't heard back from him yet, but Xarles found his Facebook page and it appears he saw them at the airport in Poland. Doesn't say which one, but probably in Krakow? Talked about many delayed flights, seeing the Green team and talking with the camera man.

I did get a reply from Liam. here's what he said:

@Plaidmoon Kraków airport, all guy with girl teams, only 3 teams left as far as I could tell. They were really cool tho
4:38 AM - 9 Jul 2015
So, it was at the Krakow airport. Also, he says he saw 3 M/F teams. I'm not sure we had that many M/F teams worked out.

So he only saw Justin & Diana, Logan & Chris, and Denise & James Earl, but I'm convinced with the cheerleaders being safe based on the recent pictures.
