The white sail boat could be from a hotel @ Flac beach and then ...  :hallo3
Rob's beach doesn't look like a hotel beach. Maybe exile island  :jam:
From http://www.maurinet.com/cities.html

"Grand Baie owes its popularity to the enchanting quality of its emerald waters and to its liveliness by day or by night. It offers facilities for safe swimming, sailing, windsurfing, and water skiing. Grand Baie also hosts a variety of fashion and craft shops, hotels, restaurants, and night-clubs. It is the departure point for helicopter excursions, and it provides facilities for deep sea angling and for boat excursions to the islands to the north of Mauritius: Gunners' Quoin, Flat Island, Round Island, and Serpent Island."

Who does it look like who's doing the roadblock for Dustin & Kandice?  Isn't that Dustin & Kandice at the Roadblock with Rob & Kimberly?  I can't quite keep Dustin & Kandice apart   :hallo3

Kandice is the taller one; she is seen getting into the boat. What's interesting about the video is that all team members are geared up, which wouldn't be necessary if one team member was sitting it out; maybe it was more convenient for the hotel/production that way.

Since they are boarding at a dock and jumping off on a sandy beach I was thinking they actually go somewhere.

I think the title might refer to making pickles ... even fish pickles.  Just a hunch because I have not been able to track down solid leads.

What if this is the new alliance.... I think new alliance is D/K and T/J. Plus they have showed the barbies before saying they like the boys but not sure they can trust them. ANd the boys making a comment about being in the back of the pack and barely staying in the game each week.  We know there is bunching some where... for the Barbies and the surfer boys to be at airport together.  That sucks when they have a FF then there is bunching so the lead does not help.

I think the friends are the back-packers as the clue says " another alliance" after the Barbie/Tyler& James clue.
put it all together and it should be something like this:



*Tensions spark when one team books tickets for another team further back in line at the airport.
*Tempers flare at the airport when one team books tickets for an allied team further back in the ticket line, causing major hostility.

*Car accidents plague the teams as they race through harsh terrain.
*One team crash's their car into a bus.
*While racing through the streets of Mauritius, one team has a major scare when they crash their car into a bus.

*engine problems plague the teams as they race through harsh terrain.
*Another team suffers car trouble.Will these misfortunes cost someone the race?
*Another team has trouble getting their car into gear and must watch as all the other teams pass by them.


*A spontaneous alliance forms between two teams. Is it real or are they just using each other to get ahead.
*Impromptu alliances form and splinter as favors are exchanged.
*Meanwhile, two teams create an alliance but wonder if the bond is strong enough to bring them to the end. 

*Could the race to the Pit Stop among friends mean the demise of another alliance?
*Who will be the next team eliminated?

Barbies help Tyler & James get tickets, Barbies ~ vs~ the Lyns.
Barbies fender bender with the bus.
Rob & Kim can't get the car in gear ( could be other teams with engine problems too?)
Spontaneous alliance ,Barbies & Tyler/James.
Another alliance " friends" = the backpackers.
Mary & David Eliminated?

How do we know the Detour is first? Kims hair is down at the Roadblock, Izabela's video, then we see her tie it up.
Later we see Rob & Kim hoping off a boat and her hair is up.
I always had the feeling the Roadblock came first but thats my opinion and you know what that means  :hallo13.

The run-of-the-mill flight search gets you from Kuwait to Mauritius on Kuwait Airways flight 675 leaving at 10:10 pm and arriving at 9:25 am on Sunday the 11th. 

Working the airport a little will get you on Olympic Airlines flight 346 to Paris (connection in Athens) leaving at 3:40 am (not all teams could make this flight) and arriving at 12:05 pm.  Then you take Air France flight 996 leaving at 3:55 pm and arriving in Mauritius at 5:00 am on Sunday the 11th.

5 or 6)The Lyns were in the top five but last.

Slowhatch: I found this diving map that shows the approximate location of Merville in relation to Grand Baie. And this official map (pdf; 3.6 mb) shows the whole island in detail (use the zoom in your pdf reader); Grand Bassin looks like it's the dead end of the "tea trail" road through Grand Bois and Bois Cheri.

Some of the crop circles have North and South markers and Chateau can use them to calculate the time but somehow this one marks differently  :hallo3 So I guess all of them are out of alignment. We're out of luck.  :hallo23

 :jumpy: You got it right by the placing the schooner there. Just kayak out to the Isla Mauritia and grab a clue. I don't think the ship is the pitstop. Maybe the temple is the pitstop.  :hallo3

I wasn't leaning that way, heck I didn't even think of that banzai. I suppose TPTB could rent the isla marada  :hallo3 ? They have daily excursions but I'll have to find the link.

I found this diving map that shows the approximate location of Merville in relation to Grand Baie. And this official map (pdf; 3.6 mb) shows the whole island in detail (use the zoom in your pdf reader); Grand Bassin looks like it's the dead end of the "tea trail" road through Grand Bois and Bois Cheri.

Always looking for potential pitstops..they showed the Grand Bassin for some reason?
Besides the Tea Factory & the chamarel falls, we have the Colonial House near Bois Chéri or “Saint Aubin” .
