the zip-line is Brazil ?

Probably so, Puddin.  It looks like the first flights out of Sao Paolo to Moscow leave around 3 pm.

It appears that the first team to depart the pitstop will leave before sunrise so they will have plenty of time to perform a zip line task before getting to the airport.

there's a live webcam at St. Basil, maybe we can go back to that date and see if they archived any tar racer.

The cathedral in the video is the Kremlin Cathedral of St. Michael the Archangel.

Probably so, Puddin.  It looks like the first flights out of Sao Paolo to Moscow leave around 3 pm.

It appears that the first team to depart the pitstop will leave before sunrise so they will have plenty of time to perform a zip line task before getting to the airport.

Pedeler:  Where did you find the flights from GRU to SVO?  I can find no direct flights and most leave GRU from 10:30PM to Midnight and go through JFK or CDG.  In any case: yes they have time to do the zip line (maybe at the Ayala Adventure Center) and then drive 157 miles to Sao Paulo.

I see no direct flights but Airwise does show flights leaving at 3:05 on Lufthansa and Varig. Both connect in Frankfurt and continue on Lufthansa arriving at either 12:10 or 1:25 p.m. the next day. There's also an AirFrance at 5:35 arriving at 3:15 p.m..

I don't know; the cap church looks a little smaller and less ornate than the St. Michael cathedral.
On another topic, if you reverse the negative cap all you get is some poolside cleavage from Monica.

That's the one I posted the pic of. It is in Cathedral Square. Slowhatch doesn't think it matches the one in vid cap and I don't think so either -- though it is very close. The one in the vid cap is probably a smaller version in a neighborhood somewhere and goes with the pics of MoJo walking.

G'Man, Sups:  I used Airwise and put in the afternoon of Nov 10 from GRU to Moscow. 
The dilemma that I saw was that different airlines fly to different airports in Moscow.  For example, British Airways flys from GRU to SVO (Moscow) through London and Lufthansa flys for GRU to DME (Moscow) through Frankfurt.  There are other airlines that fly through Madrid or Paris to Moscow.

There 4 cathedrals in the Kremlin.  The one pictured is the Cathedral of the Assumption.  The one circled on Chateau's map is the Cathedral of the Archangel.  On the map also to the right of the circle you can spot the plaza in front of St. Basil's Cathedral (Red Square is behind St. Basil's)  This is the actual location of the Pit Stop matt.  Further to the right is Russia House the hotel in which the crews and teams probably overnighted.  The picture we have of Eric and Jerremy at the clue box is here in the plaza

About the flights, remember that we have a picture of Eric & Jeremy leaving the Moscow  pit stop at 4:30 am. 

So that means they arrived the day before at a time that allows them to complete all the tasks (high-dive, dolls, more?) by 4:30 pm.

It is the Novodenichy Convent and Monestary. I think that is also were caps 57-62 are from with MoJo running around the grounds.

Here are a couple of websites:

It even has its own webcam. Some famous people are supposed to be buried there, so maybe it's another Evita-type task.
