Okay to post after the show tonight!
Maanca:
-Detour in Saint John. Making molasses at Crosby's Molasses or a task that was in TAR Australia, or stacking a pallet of beer cases at Moosehead Lager.
-99% sure Golf Face-Off is at Algonquin Golf Course in St. Andrews. This spot looks like a match http://theaposition.com/daviddesmith/wp-content/uploads/sites/54/2011/07/The-Algonquin1.jpg (huge photo). Did we have any sightings here? I thought it was mentioned in filming.
-Roadblock at Kingsbrae Gardens. Here's a little background on the place that gives us an idea of the task, from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Andrews,_New_Brunswick#Kingsbrae_Horticultural_Garden
--- Quote ---Kingsbrae Garden has over 50,000 different plants on display. There are edible gardens, a cedar maze, an ornamental grass garden, rose garden, gravel garden, a virgin Acadian forest trail, streams, a genuine Dutch windmill (1/3 scale), and even a garden called the "Scents and Sensitivity Garden"; built with advice from the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, and designed for the visually impaired, with all plants chosen because they have an interesting smell or texture, and all with names for the plants labelled in English, Latin, and Braille.
--- End quote ---
(would this have been Lowell's ideal Roadblock or what? :P )
-Did we ever figure out where the Pit Stop is?
Maanca:
New location in the sneak peek: A Saint John location is the Chateau Saint John. And Jemmett blowout!
THIS is Jillian's equivalent moment of Rachel's "the Amazing Race is supposed to be fun and good!" Emmett can't figure out how to reach the Chateau by car and decides they get out and run, Jillian tearfully protests his decision and believes they're in last place, and complains her shoes are 2 sizes too small :lol:
Frankie & Amy also can't find it.
Alenaveda:

Just a bit more. Sorry for the wall of text, guys! This is about the closest they've come to me, Saint John is little more than a ferry ride away, I wish I could have seen this one in action.
6-9 is the Bouctouche Dunes Boardwalk, nowhere close. Unless they Detoured off the highway coming into New Brunswick, this is just stock footage. It's on the east coast of the province near the bridge to PEI.
This post from Saint Johns tourism seems to confirm the other Detour. Moosehead Lager - https://twitter.com/VisitSaintJohn/status/771049382057762816
And there seems to be a tie with Cuba once again :P I was looking up molasses was made, I didn't know and that seems to be the Detour task (it actually sounds kinda complicated, there's chemistry involved). It's made from refining...sugar cane (or sugar beets are used, too). They extract the sugar from it through boiling, and molasses are the byproduct that's left.
