In haste: Speculative Summary
 
Teams travel to Bavaria: Fairy Tale theme. Gnomes  :gnome . Vanessa and Ralph fight. Snow.
 
(Task order is SPECULATIVE)
 
Where does the GNOME come from?? Curling or somewhere else?? (seen before castle, before Detour A, at Detour B. Present at RB)
 
Drive your Ford to Unterammergau (location=spec) to ice rink for RB CURLING with a gnome. :lol:
 
    seen: JJ doing curling
 
Drive to Oberammergau:
 
Mark and Bopper dress in traditional clothes and yodel-lay-hee-oh! for a speedbump
 
Detour A: Groom a beard to (spec=match the gnome) to the satisfaction of the World Champ Beard meister
    seen: Joey and Danny, Dave and Rachel
 
Detour B: Collect a basket of gingerbread at (spec=Red Riding Hood House --Thanks WP!); carry it on foot to Hansel and Gretel House (THANKS to WP!), complete the roof on a gingerbread house, collect clue from the witch.

seen: Mark and Bopper, Rachel and Brendon, Stacy and Kerri>>M/B finishes first
 
(Placement of castle location in the sequence is SPEC)
Travel to Neuschwanstein Castle
 
Some teams travel on foot, others up by horse carriage (spec); Vanessa fights with Ralph (spec: due to walking vs riding choice)
 
Scour Ludwig's quarters for ??clue?? (unknown)
 
Travel to Pitstop: unknown: Castle grounds?? Another Ludwig location??
 
At risk: Stacy and Kerri and Joey and Danny (not seen after this episode)
 
Safe: everyone else (seen in future locations)

is it just me or does the man whom Joey and Danny have to groom has a beard that looks near-identical to the travelocity-roaming gnome's beard? :lol:

Could that be its purpose in this leg? groom a man's beard to resemble the gnome's?

Do you guys have any idea on what's Brendon and Rachel doing in Active Route Info inside the Castle??

There's a comparison of the "Candy House", the one for display near the witch, and the one that brenchel is working at...

are they trying to uncover them from the ice??  or decorate them to make it just like the example... ???

and if you can identify the tools that Brenchel used, that might help too!!  ;)

I'm confident it's brenchel, Vanessa's face, however (didn't mean to be offense) it's not that white..

This is my spec:

Detour: Recreate a house using provided materials OR mustache something
RB: still unknown
Speed Bump: yodelling - for Mark and Bopper.



And I believe it's Brenchel. Look at the guy. Ralph is bigger than Brendon. So I guess it's Brendon.

That's definitely Rachel's face :P

If the beard task has to do with gnomes then it can't be a detour. The gnome task is always mandatory.
Physics alone is not enough.

Those who forget history are sure to repeat it.

1) I don't think this is an active route marker?? Remember we also have the search King Ludwig's bedroom from the press releases (see post 1)

2) Why do you say inside the castle? It looks like a neighborhood to me...maybe in Unterammergau?? Which might make it more likely that music is a Detour option as well, if it is near the pub.

3) I think they are just decorating a Gingerbread House (pretty common to do with kids at Christmas)...maybe they are matching the house they are in front of, as well as the witch's example??

4) Remember that Phil did not mention a SpeedBumop to M/B...so we don't know yet if there IS one this season..
 
5) Love the match the gnome moustache spec, that looks spot on!!

The 2 detour options occur at the Hansel and Gretel house in Oberammergua - hence the witch with a pot and the building of the gingerbread house...

For those not familiar with the story:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hansel_and_Gretel

The other detour option is inside the house - compare the murals on the outside of the house with those behind the singers...


Strange coincidence that they would feature a story that was also used in "Once Upon A Time" which is in direct competion with TAR.

The "Uglier Than A Mud Rail Fence" quote is probably in reference to the witch.

Ha , yes that's probably a more likely option , at first I thought maybe Vanessa said it about Rachel lol.
