In Almaty:
The State Museum of Popular Musical Instruments
The State Museum of Popular Musical Instruments was created in 1980. It is one of the cultural sights of "The Southern Capital". Kazakh musical instruments have been collected in the Museum from all regions of Kazakhstan as well as from the CIS and other parts of the world.
The collection includes personal dombras of poets, zhyrau and composers, such as: Abai, Zhambyl, Makhambet. Amre, Dina and other figures of the musical arts.
The Museum is located in a traditional Russian wooden building dating 1907.
Post by: georgiapeach on August 18, 2008, 01:38:29 AM
they visited the Museum of Musical Instruments. The museum is housed in a lovely wooden building designed by the same architect as the wooden cathedral mentioned in an earlier post. Unlike many post-Soviet museums, the facility was in excellent condition and the objects were displayed well. Most objects also featured explanations in Kazakh and Russian that were reasonably detailed. In addition to displaying traditional flutes, drums, and cymbals, the collection had many stringed instruments. One room even featured a sort of dombra Hall of Fame, with famous musicians' photos alongside their instruments

And in regards to the Coliseum, yes, LA Memorial Coliseum and Coliseum are the same, Peach.
Third straight start in LA.
The Coliseum is only used for USC football (and the S2 season finale of 24, another show I'm obsessed with). Good to use for the start. Plenty of room and a lot of twisty roads to get to LAX.

Insert is a clip from the Kazakh movie "Nomad The Warrior". A film based on some of the history of Kazakhstan in the early 1800's. Horned helmet is a match. Other details are consistant with Kazakh warriors of that period.

Capital of Bahia State, former capital of Brazil (until 17??). Has one of the largest historical centers of Brazil.
I can hear Phil reporting same to us on September 28th.
And from that site: My hometown (http://cpm-seattle.smugmug.com/photos/269172924_hhNTr-X3.jpg) (only one 16 story building at the time)

The reason I mention it is because I found it while trying to spot the Instrument museum (http://www.trekearth.com/gallery/Asia/Kazakhstan/photo434094.htm) without much luck; according to this album (http://www.flickr.com/photos/sebast1an/2479187149/sizes/o/) (taken 09 May, Victory Day), it's somewhere near a large square and a soldier's memorial.

The Museum of National Musical Instruments is located on the edge of Panfilov Park, close to Zenkov Cathedral, and is located in the building, called the House of Officers, which in the last century was used by military officers for their meetings.
also: Address: Kazybek bi Street
Directions: Across the road from the Glory Memorial in Panfilov Park
I found the actual website last night right before I lost Internet, but haven't found it again yet... :res:

(A) matches up with a patch of green as the Praca Santo Antonio da Barra, and (B), where there is a distinct lack of skyscrapers, sits where a flyover intersection is in Salvador. (C) is a building parallel to the coastline sitting on a vegetated knoll, matching up with the one on Rua do Cristo. And (D), previously identified as Mansao Professor Pedro Calmon, matches up exactly with where it should be in Salvador, along Rua Sabino Silva.

Now to find Magic Helmet. If it's an ad hoc thing, we're out of luck until more info rolls in. I've searched for cultural parks/outdoor museums that might match, but no luck.

And what's the magic helmet--do you mean the one on the costumed warriors? :lol:

The fabric on that elephant looks similar to the fabrics on the Indian woman's sari. As patlini said, they are a bit unique--perhaps southern India?? Goa maybe? ???I think its paint peachs

And they've never been to Kenya, either. The brief stop in TAR5 doesn't count.
Post by: sunnyca on August 21, 2008, 02:12:50 PM
as usual, you guys are amazing, ripping apart a 30sec (or so) promo to find all this info!
i have been trying to catch up on all the postings, but have a couple questions that maybe someone can answer:
why did the fiji thing come up, was it in the promo? does seem extremely unlikely timewise.
and why astana instead of almaty, given that the photos are of almaty? just bvm's "capital" remark? or ease of flights?

At 407pm an Amazing Race promo was shown on Channel 2 (NY CBS) for about 2 seconds just afer the Jets games ended and while a commercial break was being taken at the U.S. Open Tennis tournament women's finals. I had no means of capturing it but you might be able to catch up to it.
