Speculation on TAR16 *no wish-lists please*

<< < (94/186) > >>

YY:
Just an fyi regarding the picture, someone at a JeJo fan site pointed out that December 12th is the Festival of the Virgin Guadalupe in Puerto Vallarta (sp?) Mexico, I bet anything that's where that picture came from.

TAR11 sequester was Acapulco, Mexico and I think TAR 9 stayed there as well. I'll have to ask.
TAR11 had 4 legs in South America and all the teams eliminated stayed in Acapulco, Mexico then Teri and Ian were eliminated in Africa but were also sequestered in Acapulco. They were the last team sequestered that season.

Yup, so Puerto Vallarta seems very plausible for the ES.

Also found this from a tourist bureau website... could be another reason they were out in the streets. Seems as if the city as a whole celebrates Guadalupe with processions from the first to the 12th, with the 12th Day the culmination of the processions, with all businesses taking part.
Also, December 12 - Anniversary of the foundation of Puerto Vallarta: Special ceremony at the City Hall Council, and Fiesta at the malecon. The founding of Puerto Vallarta by Don Guadalupe Sanchez Torres in 1851.
More food for thought.

The Cancun area was used for Sequesterville in TAR 2 and 4, IIRC.

One of the Cancun-area locations was used in TAR 3 as a pit stop. Lisbon was used in several early seasons as well. I'd be surprised if an Mexico location was used that wasn't well secluded; TPTB do try to prevent public exposure of the eliminated teams in Sequesterville.

I'm not as willing to assume that the JJ photo was taken since the date Race 16 began filming without some collaboration as to the date of the photo. Hearsay is circumstantial, it may or may not prove anything without other information.
