The only thing this reminds me of is Dick Van Dyke.......the chimney sweeps in Mary Poppins........but that is London, not Vienna.

The headed to Salzburg idea was DrRox's.  ;)

What is the proof for the PS at Villa von Trapp? If there is some it would confirm a Salzburg PS and be a great location.

My Picture matches the Pitstop location.

It is a scene from Mary Poppins, but this is all I could come up with: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,25098.msg604181.html#msg604181

:hearts: Great work! Just curious, is there a link that shows that the picture is from inside the villa?

Nice one, you're batting 1000 today! The connection is actually the actress Julie Andrews played both Mary Poppins and Maria from the Sound of Music.

I find it a little odd that she would give us a clue for Salzburg when she did not think they were going there though...

Mary Poppins has nothing to do with The Sound of Music. ???

Well, Julie Andrews was playing the main character in both the movies.

Well they are both Disney movies........

And the direction is EAST to WEST.........not West to East.......if you went that way.....you would end up in Slovakia, not Salzburg.

Sorry I just now remembered that.

It's still odd b/c peach said no Salzburg and there is a place called Mary Poppins in Vienna. Odd coincidences...

Thanks so much jiajia!!! I think that helps confirm Hohenfeste Salzburg as well.

This leg looks really interesting. You think teams will get to stay in the villa or have to have a keep racing to Lichtenstein?

I would be very surprised, if they have the teams continue to Liechtenstein without a break on snowy roads during the evening/night. However, nothing seems impossible ... I'm sticking with pitstop, though and we'll have an elimination.

My old find during live sightings suggested a pitstop in Salzburg. Do you know what happened to that, peach?

Could you relink me to that or send it to me??

I will take the fall for this one....I know 100% we had production staying in Salzburg, I will search out the link. But I think i got something else that made me think one of my favorite most romantic   :luvu:  cities in the world was not on the list...so I believed it. :lol:

OH jeez. I am obviously a total failure at hints, subtlety must NOT be my thing. :lol3:

I gave y'all the eliminated team last week and no one even noticed.

And this has nothing to do with Julie Andrews or Salzburg but the coincidence is WAY too funny!!  :lol:

Just look at the picture. ;)

Well there are 6 single people with umbrellas, and 6 teams remain. Maybe a hint at the roadblock which could have something to do with Mary Poppins.

I think that your Julie Andrews thing actually helped determine the PitStop.  :lol3:

Am I anywhere close with the Chimney Sweep museum or the white sweep restaurant??

And I can't find that blog post again, maybe it's in your inbox. :funny:

I think The Prophet had it way back here:

There's some sort of daycare or something in Wien called Kindergarten and Hort Mary Poppins but I am not sure that it has anything to do with this episode.  :lol:


The Chimney Sweep Museum on Klagbaumgasse 4 or the Zum Weissen Rauchfangkehrer actually makes more sense.

Oh gosh....Just reread the blog...the tourists stayed...guess where?? Villa Von Trapp!! And heard about a shoot the next day from production, and saw a map ....on the floor:groan:

All interspersed with a lot of other stuff about markets.

The dates seem to be Dec 5th they talked to production, Dec 6 for the shoot.

I wrote them right away, but did not receive an answer, and forgot to follow up with all the finale fun in progress. :meow:

I don't feel good about putting the link her, lots of personal family stuff...

Totally my bad. :-[

This isn't the first time WRP has used a location in or near Salzburg that had a connection to the story of the Von Trapp family.
(leg 2 of TAR 14 roadblock was in the mountain range near Salzburg used in the opening sequence of the film, The Sound of Music, IIRC, and the pitstop was in Salzberg as well.)
How odd is it that all of the teams this time from TAR 14 were on that leg, and only one team ends up making it back to Salzburg?

I sent Peach my shot of the Castle in Salzburg.  Its a match.  

In the caps: no.3&4 is a passage way through the Hofburg towards the Burgtor.

Cap No. 21 Salzburg Castle

Cap No 25 teams must pick up a book (perhaps in the Salzburg Castle) which the must carry to the final pit stop.

Cap 28.  We see the globetrotters leaving their car inside the Hofburg in front of the Burgtor which is directly across the Burgring from the Maria-Theresia Platz and site of the Christmas Market and the Monument to Maria-Theresia.(You can see the towers of both the Fine Arts Museum (left) and the Natural History Museum (right) over the Burgtor.

Caps 36 and 37 - The Trotters running on the Burgring from the Maria-Theresia Platz (note the Kunsthistorisches Museum in the background which forms one side of the Platz) after picking up either the detour clue or route marker,  perhaps toward the Freud Museum or University (but what did they do with the car?)
