What IS the deal with Yahoo? Those previews should clear some things up as we all have different takes on this one. My simplified current thought is this, with reasons why in parentheses:
DAY ONE
TEAMS depart Lake Bennett on 11/26
FIRST CLUE: Fly to Bangkok, Thailand and search Wat Hua Lamphong temple for clue (webclue)
TEAMS arrive in Bangkok in the daytime (temple shot in daylight, usually an aprx. match for lighting of teams' arrival)
SECOND CLUE: Proceed to Ayutthaya
TEAMS go to Ayutthaya, do something with elephants
THIRD CLUE: Proceed to Lopburi and find Pra Prang Som Yat temple
TEAMS arrive in Lopburi at night (RaYo in cab, night shots of monkey festival going on)
TEAMS are bunched until the next morning (where teams wait outside gate, Ty & Ray hi-five)
DAY TWO
TEAMS enter temple grounds, find clue
FOURTH CLUE: ROADBLOCK - prepare monkey feast OR FAST FORWARD - eat bugs
BJT, MoJo go to FF, E&J & RaYo get started on roadblock, MoJo return to do roadblock
FIFTH CLUE: Proceed to Ko Kret Island
TEAMS arrive at Ko Kret, get next clue
SIXTH CLUE: DETOUR - something with pots
SEVENTH CLUE: Proceed to pitstop in plantation in Ko Kret (where E/J are held up, MoJo run, etc)
This makes the most sense to me time-wise.
I know its late but I AM BACK!!
Can't see how the teams would arrive in daylight. I could find only one flight from SYD that would arrive in the daylight: at 6:25AM via MEL on a Quantas/Thai flight leaving SYD at 6:45PM. Most all other flights arrive in the late evening: 7:25PM, 10:20PM, 10:45PM and 12:50AM.
Also what about those shots at night with the motocabs? and with Hippies and Yolanda in regular cabs at night (these could be repeat shots).
Fact that the Wat Hau Lamphong is shown in daylight is not significant since locations are often shown without regard to the actual times they are visited.
So it is a confusing situation to say the least. We do have most of the locations down: Wat Hau Lamphong, Ayutthaya Elephant Karel, Wat Prang Sam Yot in LopBuri, the Pottery Works on KoKret, and the Banana Plantation also on KoKret. We have some kind of ceremony waiting on the veranda of a building in Ko Kret but what goes on here? Could be the second part of the Detour; some kind of native ritual or ceremony. If that is so, where is the feast of Insect Delights??
And where is the pit stop in Ko Kret or back in Bangkok?
And one thing for sure - somebody goes home tonight. Ray and Yolanda?
Too much to decipher right now. But the good news is I have been on this site for over 30minutes and I am still alive!!
