TARA 5 Speculation and Discussion of **SPOILERS**
fossil-racer:
Welp...
Late last night I found a video but it has since been taken down or made private.
It was a short video of Alex and Will in the Quan Bui restaurant.
Towards the end of the video I saw another team (Rei/Kenji?) that had a pale female and a male with glasses. They looked like they were hating life.
Also note, in the restaurant there were about 6 tables. 4 were unoccupied and there was a plate of food on each that was covered in brown woven plate cover.

Interesting, this Toronto-based travel agency specializing in the Philippines posted yesterday about teams arriving in Manila today, the 17th.
Allan mentions today (August 17th) is Day 11. Would Manila be Leg 6 or 7?

7?
Well, assuming they still do 10 legs, they have 9 legs to eliminate 8 teams.
So If this is leg 6, the first 5 legs are elim.
So If this is leg 7, one of the first 5 legs is a non-elim with the rest being elims.
Heres the route I have so far:
1 Indo
2 Indo
3 Malay (Kuala Lumpar)
4 Malay (Penang)
5 Thai
6 Viet- Alex/Will elim
7 Ph
3/4 may be 1 leg but we don't know.

A niece of my friend just mentioned that she is with the team in a bus which is now on its way to the northern part of the country. If they are going to Vigan or Laoag, they will arrive in the morning anytime from 6am-9am

Ooo! Yay Ilocos!
But now that's got me thinking. Maybe Allan's Instagram video (https://www.instagram.com/p/BJMyyBGA9M9/) isn't Intramuros, but actually of him in Vigan, Ilocos Sur which is also known for its cobblestones and horses?
At first, I wondered if this could be another TBC/KOR Leg?
One "Leg" in Manila and another full Leg up north? But then seeing that maybe Allan wasn't in Intramuros but maybe Vigan, Ilocos Sur instead, maybe they only had those 2 Route Markers in Manila with the Detour and RB still to come up north.

The pics constitution posted are from the national HQ of the Emergency Response Unit of the Philippine Red Cross.
So I am going to assume that the stuff they bought in Quiapo were some relief goods/supplies and the pics show the teams delivered the Grab-sponsored box of goods (using a Grab car of course) to the Red Cross HQ.
Most likely, a good, simple sponsored task in Manila for logistics to get the teams on the overnight bus so they can start the bulk of the Leg in Ilocos in the morning.
