Croatia is a country located in Southern Europe, it was a state of Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (later known as Yugoslavia) and Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia from 1918-1991.

ApprenticeFan, I usually give this advice to rookies, which you are not. There is a rather large body of information in particular about Dubrovnik (because AR12 is probably not going to the rest of Croatia) including city maps and history and possible sightseeing other than the zipline and rowing and other tasks that we already know about in other threads, including MAPs! Maps! Maps!. Additional information is always appreciated, but you might want to find out exactly what is already on the other threads.

Staying in Burkina (after a pit stop) would suggest tasks the next day (it's light out) & possibly missing the only flight out of Oug...back to Europe. (One flight per day?)
Would this make an uber bunch (following the tasks) & long hours (or an overnight) at the airport likely? Also making the U turn (or whatever dastardly deed the blondes did) not a big deal to the affected team.

hound 109, I am not going to speculate on the U turn. On the other questions you raise:
That one flight is the evening of July 16. They cannot reasonably make the evening of July 15 with tasks and a 12 hour pitstop, so I predict a 24 hour pistop. There will still be an uberbunch because it's unavoidable with all teams flying on one flight) AF735 departed OUA at 2340 and arrived CDG at 0610 on July 17. That may be enough time to connect to the Air France 0720 flight to Florence.

Hi Everyone! Long time lurker here but I finally decided to join in the fun. Apskip, I'm not sure if thats enough time for the connection at CDG. Last year I was on a flight from L.A. to Florence, connecting to CDG and I have one a half hour to do it. The lines through CDG customs for non-EU members moves pretty slow. What makes it harder is that the CDG-Florence flights are typically smaller planes so they don't have their own gates (connected to the terminal). When the teams get to the gate, they get checked in then they have to take a bus that will take them to the plane that is sitting on the tarmac. I almost missed my flight last year ( I had to beg some folks ahead of the line if theres any way I can cut...I know its bad but I had to do it... I got there 2 minutes before the gates were closed.) and I wouldn't be surprised if some of the teams misses their connection.
