Legs where the challenges are so easy that there is almost no hope of anyone catching up are bs. Feels like they are cutting costs sometimes by making sure they don't have to pay anyone overtime to hang around late.

I'm rewatching some old seasons on hulu, and holy poo poo the race used to be so much harder. Multi-day legs with tons of self-arranged travel happening during the leg (like 18 hour bus rides through third world countries), sleeping outside on the ground in the rain all the time, and really hard challenges. People just looking massively burnt out after a few legs, with hilarious results. As opposed to now where it seems like they usually get up after a night in the hotel, drive to the airport to get on one of three already arranged flights, fly somewhere and do a couple pretty easy challenges (go get some chocolates) over 3-4 hours, then hit the hotel till next day.

A team can still only u-turn one time in a race right? So the cheerleaders using the uturn when they knew they were last was ridiculous.

hepscat posted:This seemed like another short leg with not much to do. I'm not sure what's up with that. There was a decent amount of travel in there, the ferry alone is an hour+customs (although customs there is pretty quick). But yah I hear you. I think its really dicey to get from kowloon to hk ferry terminal, get tickets, and onto the next boat in under half an hour even if there was no traffic. So they probably made the right choice of just getting on there and taking the penalty. Well, if they had actually realized they screwed up. Seemed like they might have when the right class of tickets weren't available.

The salt thing was kinda cool, but I was confused by the missing step. Apparently after hours of sprinkling water on the sand, they rake it all up and stick it into a sieve where they pour more seawater in (over days) and collect the brine at the bottom in the hollowed out bamboo. Which seems like a shitton of work over a salt pond, but I guess manual labor is cheap. http://travel.cnn.com/explorations/life/flavor-journey-bali-balduccis-780500/
