EP11 Title: I Think This Monkey Likes Me!

One thing for sure, the teams will not be driving themselves in Bangkok which has some of the worse traffic jams in the entire world. I remember sitting there in a taxi going no where fast for over an hour!!! (Would have drived FranBerry crazy in no time at all.) I agree there are just too many temples in Bangkok to be able to isolate one now without more visual help.
FastForward food challenge! Two teams. The BeachBums can't. MO/JO tried one and lost out, would they try again? That leaves The Hippies and RaYoYo. The Hippies would try anything; so that leave Yolanda as the question mark?
Anticipate that Ep 10 is an NEL so that leaves four teams to monkey around in Thailand.

Lucky break for the team that wins the FF, it will shoot them right to the finale ......I agree Gman , BJT would eat anything .
Meltdown to me ( with no previews ) equals ,Monica ....just guessing for now . She's the queen of meltdowns , or at least thats how shes being edited .

What I still can't understand is what in the world one team (most likely MO/JO) is doing in Adelaide. There are all kinds of flights from Darwin (DRW) to Bangkok (BKK) which connect through Singapore (SIN) or Sydney (SYD).
If there is a YIELD this week in Ep 10, then I expect to see a FF next week in Bangkok. Don't believe there has ever been a FF after we get to the final 3 with no more eliminations. This would certainly give one team a super advantage over the other final two teams.
Slowhatch:
--- Quote ---Onlookers at Adelaide Airport on Sunday wondered what all the fuss was about when a desperate-looking couple attempted to book a capacity Singapore Airlines flight.
They also happened to be young, good-looking Americans carrying only backpacks, with a TV crew filming their every move.
They had boarding passes for a flight to Sydney, and after being told the Singapore Airlines flight was full, they ran back to the domestic terminal (bet they're wishing the new terminal was in operation).
--- End quote ---
My guess is that the team was stuck on a multi-leg and tried (but failed) to make some time with Singapore Air. SA has only one flight out of town--SQ230--and it leaves at 1205. So, working backwards, I looked for DRW-ADL-SYD-BKK multilegs that arrived in Adelaide before Sunday noon. The only thing I could find (that didn't go through Sydney first) was Qantas 82, leaving Darwin at 0535.
Neobie:
Do you think they'd try to fit Ayer's Rock in, which prompts teams to leave from Adelaide? (Trying to add Uluru and Adelaide en route to Bangkok would skyrocket the producers' budget though.)
Trying to connect through Singapore at this time of the year is probably the worst possible idea. It's in the middle of the school holidays for Singapore, and billions of kids and their families are shuttling back and fro Australia during this time of the year. I seriously doubt any team would be able to make it to Singapore through the national carrier.
