It looks like the leg in Taiwan was done in the darkness, I mean it was done at night. So Taipei have no hours of operation or do they close business establishment at daytime?

Niroo and Kapil checked in at dawn. Weird??

by **Avalanche** Fri 03 Oct 2008, 2:30 am

Tisha and Geoff look like they anticipated the task here. Tisha used a nose clip when she ate the tofu. Geoff used a whistle to get the attention of the taxi drivers who were just laughing at them despite the drivers have taken their money in Vietnam

Hi Jon! So, I guess you've seen episode 4 already. How was the quality of the resolution? Which one is better? The pando or the youtube video?

Sure Mai. I expect that again. Hehe

by **Avalanche** Sat 11 Oct 2008, 5:17 am

I don't know if these have been highlighted so I am bringing these to your attentions, ladies and gentlemen:

JonL0ver wrote:Let's try to interpret the e-mail from Shirley who
witnessed the filming of TARA 3 in Hue, Vietnam. She saw the teams racing to
Citadel or Hue Imperial Palace on the 25th of May at around
2pm-3pm.

1. After I left the
imperial palace, right outside
the gate, I saw a Caucasian pair, (they
are quite big) running towards the
imperial palace.

The first pair I saw, I vaguely remember a
bald/clean-shaven Caucasian man. I can't remember his
companion.

=== Geoff is only the racer who
is bald. He looks Caucasian.

2. Following
behind
them were two ladies, they are quite big, carrying their
backpacks. I was
carrying a bottle of water, and she asked if that was
hers.

The
second pair I saw was 2 ladies. One of them has curly short hair.

The one in the yellow box could be the 2nd team
I
saw.

======Fuzzie is big (fat) and the
only racer who has curly hair. I
sent her a photo and the one in the yellow box was
A.D.

3. The third team I saw (I think, I can't
remember with the
time lapse) was cycling/riding a cyclo (a traditional mode
of
transportation in Vietnam). They had to ride the cyclo to
the
destination I think. I saw them hold a TARA slip, possibly the
clue.
These teams were quite close to each other.

I don't remember
seeing many Asians that day, possibly the 2nd team of
2 women carrying their
backpacks, had an Asian. I remember the lady
asking me for water is quite
big-sized, I am not quite sure of her
companion right now.

======Big size??? Could be Tania since she is
tall. She said one of the lady could be Asian. Ida looks very Asian not to be
noticed.

4. Then as I was
walking across the
Perfume River, I saw another team. I was quite
tickled so I stopped to take a
picture. That's the only picture I took.
It was actually the guy
cycling/riding the cyclo, but he stopped where
I was to change with the girl.
That's the team who asked me for
direction. I pointed them to the flag of the
Citadel (which was the
general direction they were headed for). This team is
quite a
distance from the rest. Say, about 1km or so.

The team that
asked me for direction, the lady in the team asked, "do
you know where is the
imperial palace?" The imperial palace is just
across a small road from the
citadel where there is a Vietnam flag. So
I pointed to the flag and told them
to head that way.

=====Shirley sent me the
photo she took and they were Mai and Oliver

5. As I
was walking away from their destination, I saw another jeep/4WD. But I didn't
see any participants with them.

===== We are
not sure if there is another team here.

So, if there were no more teams ahead of these teams
who arrived between 2pm-3pm at Hue Citadel then we can say:

Placement
of teams in LEg 3

1st - Geoff and Tisha
2nd - A.D. and
Fuzzie
3rd - Ida and Tania
4th - Mai and Oliver
5th - Unknown
6th -
Unknown
7th - Unknown
8th - Unknown

Sam and Vince were allegedly
been in Hong Kong enroute to Cochin, India. An Indian blogger by the name of
Aravind heard Tisha and Geoff saying they were 2 hours ahead of Sam.

So,
the last place is a battle among 3 teams: Henry and Bernie; Natalie and Pailin;
and Kapil and Niroo.

This explains the preview for Leg 3 showing Henry
and Bernie having a minor cyclo accident for rushing or speeding. They were
really in a hurry.

Natalie and Pailin checked in last leg probably 5-8
hours behind the other teams so it's most likely the beauty queens will be the
last team to check in but will be saved by a NEL or
TBC.

Episode 4 tells us all

Henry and Bernie leaves at 2.04am
Vince and Sam leaves at 2.05am
Ida and Tania
leaves at 2.08am
Ad and Fuzzie leaves at 2.10am
Geoff and Tisha
leaves at 2.14am
Oliver and Mai leaves at 2.19am

Niroo and Kapil
leaves at 3.00am
_____________________________________

This means Geoff and Tisha who obviously were ahead of Ida/Tania and Fuzzie/AD lost to a footrace.

I read somewhere that most of the teams spent at least 30 minutes scouting for the Forbidden Purple City from the Hue Citadel entrance.

Anyway, thanks to our blogger Shirley for giving us the infos you have witnessed

by **JonL0ver** Sat 11 Oct 2008, 3:51 pm

Thank you Avalanche for highlighting that. Yes, that is another editing manipulation by the show. They made Geoff/Tisha, Mai and Oliver way way behind the the front pack.

Yes, Sam also mentioned this in his recap.

Now we know what editing can do to a show?
