How do we know the Detour is first? Kims hair is down at the Roadblock, Izabela's video, then we see her tie it up.
Later we see Rob & Kim hoping off a boat and her hair is up.
I always had the feeling the Roadblock came first but thats my opinion and you know what that means  :hallo13.

I meant hopping not hoping off the boat << spell check that :hlol .

eta: Izablea "the couples started showing up between 10-11am "
The teams are awful bunched right?

Chateau d If:
The run-of-the-mill flight search gets you from Kuwait to Mauritius on Kuwait Airways flight 675 leaving at 10:10 pm and arriving at 9:25 am on Sunday the 11th. 

Working the airport a little will get you on Olympic Airlines flight 346 to Paris (connection in Athens) leaving at 3:40 am (not all teams could make this flight) and arriving at 12:05 pm.  Then you take Air France flight 996 leaving at 3:55 pm and arriving in Mauritius at 5:00 am on Sunday the 11th.

Roadblock
Izabela : witnessed a Roadblock on June 12 at the Merville Beach Hotel,Grand Baie.

1) Barbies complete the Roadblock first.
2) Rob and Kim second,5 minutes after the Barbies.
3) Tyler & James arrived 10-15 mins after the leading couples.This 3rd team seemed to catch up some time with this roadblock but still left 3rd.
We counted 5 couples come and go within about an hour
4)The Chos, 20 mins after the 3rd team.
5 or 6)The Lyns were in the top five but last.
5 or 6)Mary (geeky lori?)& David unsure?
One final point - there were 6 kayaks on the beach - perhaps a FF meant someone avoided this task? ( some confusion here )

6 Canoes
Barbies arrive first
Rob & Kim arrive second
Production holds the 2 leading teams up.
Dustin helps Kandice and gets yelled at to get out of the water by Rob & the Crew.
Kim paddles off second

Models jumping in Tyler & James going up? Rob waiting ?

introflash:
Lakshmi statue at Holy Lake in Mauritius.( thanks Slowhatch !)
Slowhatch: I found this diving map that shows the approximate location of Merville in relation to Grand Baie. And this official map (pdf; 3.6 mb) shows the whole island in detail (use the zoom in your pdf reader); Grand Bassin looks like it's the dead end of the "tea trail" road through Grand Bois and Bois Cheri.
