I believe they have now confirmed this episode's title as "I Think We're Fighting the Germans, Right?" (France).

I hopt that's Caite who says that, but I'm not convinced (they weren't the ones who got the wrong currency, so it may not be them).
I'd rather walk alone than let them throw dirty confetti. ♥

We're looking for a World War I site, not WWII.

This has been transferred from this Ep. 5 to the more appropriate Ep. 4 thread.

2old4tech,

When I saw the video, I have a new appreciation for the probability of Fort de Seclin being the right place. It could well be that place, as few places in France are a permanent and living museum. I think here are some great ideas for tasks:

1. Dressing up as soldiers and marching (playing the British, French or German soldiers does not look difficult and I think the probability of another Andrew/Dan marching trials/tribulations is low)
2. Find an object in that museum (I am recalling Amazing Race Asia 3 - the Miniatures Museum in Taipei)
3. Dig trenches

I am honoring your find with a map of the south side of the greater Lille area(see lowest pane) showing Seclin about 10 miles south of the center of Lille, just west of Route National E17/A1. Look to the left of the circled H. That is maybe a 20 minute drive from the train station to Seclin. With left-hand drive like in the U.S. and signage that is eminently readable there is no reason why AR16 teams could not go to self-drive vehicles which they then take on to Charles de Gaulle airport.

Map of Area near Seclin France in bottom pane

I would also like to furnish directions from Seclin to CDG airport, which is 16 miles northeast of the center of Paris. It is quite simple:

1. Get on the A1 toll road south to Paris for approximately 175 km. Take the exit 6-Roissy-en-France.
2. Do a zig-zag left/right/left/left/right/right/left/right for the next 8 km.

Juat a reminder for US and Canadian viewers and everyone who watches live elsewhere:

Baylight Savings Time begins at 2 am next Sunday ET/PT; if you use a recording device that doesn't automatically adjust then for DST, you'll need to adjust manually. (Older devices -- manufactured before 2008) don't "spring forward" for another two weeks.)

Anyways... Next week on the Amazing Race, they dress up as soldiers. Probably they have to do a trench exercise. And there is a Blind U-Turn.

The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move
