The rain was all done by 11:40 am according to this shot (it was taken in May 13th). It was dry when they started the Speed Bump and there is a shot of wet pavement during the dance.
I can't believe that is Dandrew behind Toni. Not because of 'looks like' or 'does not look like' but just because I know they have to get from Sokolniki Park down to the Sculpture Garden before going to the House of Bulgakov.

And if its part of the Roadblock, shouldn't Dan be doing it? Andrew can't do anymore right? and if it is Dan why is he just standing there?

He just would be traveling alone or possibly with one asst. He would have to leave after the last team to arrive at the mat and with Dandrew......who knows when that will be. I was thinking it would have to be later in the evening....after 6 pm to even leave the pit stop to head to the airport in Moscow.

I am not sure I articulated my point properly. With only one exception(see below) flights from Moscow will not reach Portland if leaving after 220pm. There just isn't enough traffic across the Atlantic to send planes east to west in the early evening. Working backward, the latest flights that can reach Portland from an East Coast gateway city would probably be
CO784 1906 2227 EWR PDX or DL741 1915 1101 JFK PDX
So the next step is to find appropriate flights to EWR or JFK from suitable gateways in Europe like Frankfurst, Paris, London, Amsterdam and Helsinki as well as from Moscow direct. Gateways departures that can connect above after 220pm are:
LHR JFK 1515 1815 BA113
LHR EWR none within Newark conect time
AMS to either JFK or EWR nothing
CDG to either JFK or EWR too tight a connection
FRA to either JFK or EWR nothing
HEL to either JFK or EWR nothing
SVO JFK SU316 1555 1820
Since you can't possibly get from after 220pm in Moscow to London instantaneously to make the above connection, that can be ruled out. We are left with the Areoflot 316 flight leaving Moscow at 355pm to connect with DL641 leaving JFK at 1915 as the only possibility. That would give Phil another 95 minutes vs. the 220pm flight.

So does this mean that Phil has to fly with the leaders of the pack to get to Portland? That would work since he does not have to go to all the clue points. They could have him do the standups later, after the finish.

Not necessarily, Chateau. It depends on when all teams get to the pitstop. However, since that has to be well before 2pm for Phil to make the airport(maybe they would charter a helicopter to get him on his way), I consider it quite unlikely that he would make that flight. The next best alternative is the 705am flight on Saturday May 14 with the final 3 teams. I would guess that Phil would be flying first class and the teams coach class. Once in Portland he has time to get to the pitstop and get set up, but he would find it difficult to get to all task sites. We should look for that on the Dec. 7 finale.

:lol: and just to confuse things up some more, let's not forget about Dandrew at Victory Park, in bright sunlight (and very low sun angles) probably early morning. Since previous legs pitstop is so close to Sculpture Park, maybe they send the teams to get their first clue in Victory Park just to get them away from the other locations. :angel: Then on to the sub, and back to the sculptures, etc. etc. :funny:
puddin:
That too Boingo, lol
Could the teamates be inside the flat looking for something?

Where is that pic please? Could it be late afternoon instead?
Do we have any pics that show the sub as first, or are we just thinking that is the get a clue start?
Could that come later instead?
I either need a nap or some major caffeine--my head is spinning! :iok :lol:
arrrggghh! What "flat"?? You would think I had never read every single post here... :helpme
