ALISON’S 10K DAY - PAUPA NEW GUINEA: (9:28) A little deterred by the "primarily known for cannibalism" phrasing she is reading online, Alison heads to the Kalibobo Village Resort, anyways. Alison heads for the experience of a lifetime, observing a real-life tribal ritual as part of the Sepik Crocodile Festival. It's a skin-cutting ritual signifying the boys of the Kanrigara tribe becoming men. Also in her plans - snorkeling through Tufi Dive, handicraft souvenirs at City Craft Market, and meals at Duffy's and Rapala.

LULU’S 10K DAY - SHARJAH, UAE: (25:51) A sea view tent at Kingfisher Lodge puts her by the water and a plunge pool. Car and driver through One Click Drive take her to Bougessa for culturally appropriate modest fashions, to one of the first mosques to allow non-Muslims to enter, and to the Classic Cars Museum. Lulu takes in the butterfly house and the literature pavilion at design-award-winning park Al Noor Island, then tries some unique dishes at Gazebo. A desert adventure safari with sand boarding and dune bashing, also comes with hookah and a BBQ. Some souvenir shopping at Al Ghadeer UAE crafts completes her day.
