From the looks of it, I think this is gonna be one of the better domestic legs this season.
THIS is every bit the Nova Scotia leg they should have done sooner. Digging into the province's Scottish/Colonial roots in Cape Breton, the heart of it. Halifax last season was very meh.
14-17 is the awesome Cabot Trail I was talking about during filming. This may just be stock, though - that's the western half of the island. We didn't get anything from there.
Detour/U-Turn is at Highland Village Museum in the village of Iona (Dot A), and is highland dancing (my late grandmother did this, btw. We still have her ceremonial sword
) or...I'm not entirely sure what the log-and-chain thing is. We have a couple of Cape Bretoners on this board who may know.
ARI task is Fortress of Louisbourg (Dot B). This the task we saw on webcam. Seems the barrels they're rolling through the street are full of gunpowder, which they have to then use to fill and set off a cannon. We also saw sheep run periodically by the camera that day, maybe no connection (or Rita & Yvette's Speed Bump?)
Task, probably Roadblock at Coast Guard College in Sydney (center dot) unknown. Maybe it'll be in the sneak peek.
A lot of mileage on this leg. Each of these locations are like 40 minutes apart.
