I think ep7 starts out in Zansibar.  Note in last night's promo shot of E and D getting into van that matches the vans used in Z from last night (also right hand drive which means former English colony).  Can anyone get a good CU of Eric's watch in the van?  There is a lot of reflection and the best I can do is estimate that it reads 4:15.

They are casting a fairly long shadow which means either early morning or late afternoon.

In the new sceencaps, we see U and J leaving the Old Fort shortly after or before sunrise which would match their estimated arrival time.

There was mention in the screencap that "while traveling in Poland" and there were references to "the train".  So perhaps the teams do go to at least two locations in Poland: Krakow and Warsaw.  These two cities are about nine hours apart by road, or two hours by air. So this may have something to do with Phil's previous mention of a "two hour charter plane flight, or nine hours by road."
And note that Phil is seen with the greeter on a vacant "grassy field" which could be in fact part of Lazienki Park. It also looks like it must be at sunset (the sun is lowdown through the trees)  and some shots with C/M are at night.

Shot of Mirna and Charla with the Piano certainly relates someway with Chopin.  This could be the Ostrogski Palace which is the site for the Fredrick Chopin Museum.  Another location could be Myslewicki Palace in Lazienki Park where he gave many recitals.

We also have shot of Danny or Oswald in a rowboat.  This looks like lake in Lazienki Park in front of the Palace on the Water.

Now we have two possible ROADBLOCK TASKS:  Row a boat on Lazienki Lake and Dress in full armour and take part in a mock tournament.  My guess is that one task may happen around somewhre else  and the second in Warsaw.  Each one would be part of different eps.

So my guess is that Ep7 starts in Zanzibar, goes on to Warsaw by plane.  This is a non-elimination ep.

Ep 8 goes to Warsaw, and then perhaps is scheduled to go somewhere else, (perhaps they were going to Krakow, but don't) but since everything is delayed, the final pit stop is on "that grassy field" in Warsaw.  The only thing that throws cold water on this scenario is the fact that "they were there all night and pestered by mosiquitos"  Mosquitos in Warsaw in December?

Shot of C and M carrying the statue could be in front of either the Zacheta (National Contemporary Art Galllery) National Museum
