The Futon Critic article cannot not be right , this is driving me nuts ! What am I missing here ? Unless TAR is counting the TBC as a NEL ? /(^
Pedaler:
Just some observations of the vidcaps.
http://lucknow.nic.in/geog.htm Lucknow has a tropical climate. The camel races look to be in the desert.
The racers are wearing the same clothes for both the camel and elephant tasks.
Rob and Amber are wearing the same clothes at night as they wore at the non pit stop.
Maybe one of our detectives can figure out by the amount of daylight whether the camels or elephants come first.

gingerman28:
The mosque we all thought was the Jama Masjid in Delhi shown during the opening credits, could actually be the Imambara in Lucknow which is part of the palace complex where the teams had to don headcovering. Here is pix reference:
http://lucknow.nic.in/images/imambara.jpg
I thought at first that the tower shown in pix 59 and 60 which seems to be the site for the fireworks celebration was the Husainabad Clock Tower in Lucknow but it is not a match.
http://lucknow.nic.in/images/clock_tawar.jpg
Anyone have any idea what the tower is or where it is? If it is in Jodhpur, then we know that they go there pretty soon after the rooftop mat match with Phil. Also looks like they will be going to Jodhpur by train at night, so that might be the message the teams receive on the roof. Participate in a local holiday celebration, and then catch the night train from Lucknow to Jodhpur.
The clothes do match in the camel and elephant gigs. And having both events in the continuation of ep 8 gives credance to the swich in titles that we have seen. So the makeup may be:
Night train to Jodhpur
ROADBLOCK - Race the camel around a set course (similar to the horse gig in Argentina)
DETOUR - RIDE an elephant, or
PUSH an elephant
FAST FORWARD - Shave heads and become Hindu Monks (or whatever)
Neither Uchenna nor Joyce have been seen in either the Roadblock or Detour tasks.
Then on to the PITSTOP at Jaswant Thada but whomever is last is saved by the NON-ELIMINATION LEG
puddin:
I'll look for the tower GMan ..
I think it was TeamJoisey that pointed out the sign reads link
On the ramparts of Meherangarh Fort, Jodhpur
with a view over the Clocktower and Sardar Market
JODHPUR, RAJASTHAN
What do you think?
