What comes first RB Or detour ?

The roadblock. Not only does it always come first these days, the first clue after arriving is a route info found at a tonga stand and it tells them to do the RB.
Prophet:
Can't wait to see what you find, Plaidmoon! :hearts:

That clue tells them to do the RB. ;)

From a few references I've found, a tonga is apparently the local name for a horse drawn cart.
As for the roadblock, I guess that explains the various holy men we've seen that look similar but are several different people.

That's right about Tonga (or tanga as I would pronounce it).. and now I've a catchy Hindi song involving a tonga stuck in my head.
Seems like the tasks will make a good use of Varanasi! I would image one of the holymen would be on one of the ghats?
