The teams are passing Hostal Fagnano (Fagnano #561), which is on the direct path from the plaza to cerro cruz, so no surprises there.

I think they are going the other way!  Cerro to Plaza

FWIW

The U&J shot was taken a little later (10 to 30 min) than the Romber shot:

He looks like he's holding a large (scale) block-by-block PA map, so maybe it's an old-fashioned hunt.

So Rob fails to complete the Roadblock as fast as Uchenna.  Remember Rob couldn't eat the meat and Uchenna did.

Amber on the letter sorting would have saved this team.   :jam:

Works for me!

CHATEAU, my take on it is that ROB fails to complete the ROADBLOCK as fast as either MIRNA or UCHENNA. We do not see any of the other teams around, so it is probable that they were in the final boat (which has already been predicted) and that all other teams completed this Flags/Letters luck ROADBLOCK rather quickly.

I just  :groan: realized that there is no reason that they have to be paired in the boats.

So, farming for drama here, I bet Charla & Mirna are in the last boat all alone.  Teri & Ian arrived at some earlier time and have already gone to Isla Redonda.  There is only 20 min separating them from slow Rob.  He chokes the letter sorting and Mirna gets it done first.  Footrace.  Or not.  Just he knows they lost so they walk in a dilatory fashion, hand in hand, to the mat.

I always thought that was the scenario and thats why we can't find I/T on the docks   ;D

I truly honestly cannot believe they are being eliminated this Sunday.  What a shame. They were good racers.

So the ferry pairs have to be one of these three:

Case 1 T&I picks #3
E&D + Chas
T&I + BQs
Guido + C&M
Romber + U&J

Case 2 T&I picks #5 or 6
E&D + Chas
Guido + BQs
C&M + T&I
Romber + U&J

Case 3 T&I picks #7 or 8
E&D + Chas
Guido + BQs
Romber + U&J
C&M + T&I

I suspect it is case 1 or 2 since we be fairly sure Romber is in the last boat.

Also, E&D are in the first boat every time.  They are my pick the leg's winners.

Yea, 20 min apart

Whats up dlwdmb   :hearts: ?

Not to be a downer, still fighting the cancer I got diagnosed with last year. I went thru Chemo, then radiation and now I have surgery set for 4/18...then another round of chemo.
I need to get my reality fix by then.
How have YOU been? :yess: :yess: :yess: for the link, LOVE it!

I've hunted for that porte cochere but haven't found it yet; as a hunch, I'd say the T/I cap looks more like PA than Ushuaia.

I am so shocked that Romber get eliminated so early!!  Not to mention, that means Shmirna and Mirna make it longer than them!  Dang!!  I don't think the show will be as entertaining without Rob!  BIG BUMMER!!   :'(

It looks like D/O in that cap still have the giant PA street map with them; they must have done well and gotten an early connection/charter seats/etc.

So Uchenna & Joyce either make the same flight, or not or mess up somewere on the way to Tierra del Fuego?

I'm reasonably certain that D/O alone, holding the map, is at PA. But my hunch is that D/O with Joyce is at PM (El Tepual airport); I haven't found any good photos of the inside, but note the sloping roof here.

Take a peek at the Redonda cap; is that Yellowjacket standing in the doorway?  ;D

OK, I'm certain now. As well as the sloping roof, compare the side windows (source)

Oh I see! the editing made me think they were together in the same airport in both those shots  :tup:
