A few destinations do seem to pop-up
1) The UK. Many flights to the several airports. And they don't even need to do England, they could maybe do Scotland. Though Northern Ireland or Wales do seem very unlikely.
2) Dublin, Ireland.
3) Madrid, Spain or Barcelona, Spain
4) Lisbon, Portugal
5) Toronto, Canada

So people don't get confused, this all spec for now, based on the things I explained in the previous post.
Quoting myself, cause. If we cross these destinations, with the information that production does prefer if teams fly direct for final destination. And assuming all the information we've been getting that Detroit is very likely the final city, only 2 possible destinations remain: London and Toronto, all the other cities need flights with at least one stop, to reach Detroit.

Visiting Toronto on Canada day seems like it would be a gong show

True, tomorrow's our national day. Unless they want the final 4 to be seen by many eyes, I can't imagine them coming here. There's going to be public events all over.

Personally I would think it would be Sunday with a late Saturday flight out of the Netherlands. And perhaps a very short pit stop, as was done withJapan as the net to final leg a few seasons back.

Nicole and Victor were seen by a fan in Giethoorn about 3 pm Netherland time.  She said that Nicole and Victor were about 10-15 mins ahead of Becca and Floyd.  They were having to travel down the water roads in the city.

I think this is the other detour? Not sure if Vicole and Team Fun were ahead or behind CC and Youtube.

This is the 2nd city.  The one they were going to after the cow raising task.  This is the same city that Victor googled on the mans phone.

If the final is in Detroit and they need to cross the border from Windsor the winner can come down to if they take the tunnel or bridge. 🙈.

Crazy to think that that border could possibly impact the race. Tunnel today was a mess this afternoon! Ambo was also backed up today. But not a standstill like some days. Usually tunnel is faster unless construction, which it has been closed a lot lately but normally only at night. They need to use someone's phone and check the website wait time! It could go either way on Tuesday. Depends on whether people are traveling for holidays and whether people are working that day or not.

What about Iceland? There are typically direct flights from Iceland to DTW.

The time of day also impacts the wait time.

So they were split into two packs

Victor/Nicole and Team Fun - presumably ahead of the others

and

Colin/Christie, Youtube, and Leo/Jamal - with the afghanimals being behind

According to Team Vicole the guy she talked to said he saw the other 3 teams prior to Vic using his phone

Yes.  From what I have been told, the groups seem to be

Colin/Christie, Tyler/Korey, then Leo/Jamal

then

Nicole/Victor and Becca/Floyd.

at least it was this way leaving Kampen.

In the video I saw Nic looked like she was exhausted and struggling

Ahh so Vicole and Team Fun are in trouble. (Was so happy at the thought of afghanimals possibly being last lol)

Assuming the line up have Vicole and Becca/Floyd trailing, I'm somehow seeing another fourth place finish for Leo/Jamal.
And if the next leg is indeed London, that would be an exact repeat of their last race. Certainly would make for a good edit.

Watching Nic’s and Vic’s video, Vic doesn’t seem too concerned.  This is not like him if in fact Nicole was struggling.  He is extremely supportive and would have been offering words of support to her.  Not sure what she trying to do here.

I'm thinking Team Fun was behind them. Damn if they got 5th place again

Canada is very unlikely right now due to its national holiday Canada Day which occurs on July 1st. UK and the Iberian peninsula countries also seem unlikely with no choice. Colombia would be a good choice and it remains pure speculation for now.

A Holiday would not affect flights. There is a good bit of choice from the UK and Spain.

Colombia would be unlikely.  :waves:

Is she holding some sort of phone or tablet? And is his boat backwards?

Looks like they are trying to keep the boats together, so perhaps she doesn't' have to row?? :duno: very strange!

It almost looks like she is having to hold onto the boat that Vic is in?

The girl who took that video said it was taken just a little before 3 pm. When was the video of Colin and Chrissy taken?

In the still photo of Victor and Nicole there is an empty boat between them.  In the video the middle boat is gone and Nicole looks to be holding the fronts of both boats together while steering Victor's boat backwards in the canal.  Almost like they had to retrieve a boat, guide it to another spot, back their boats outs and then return themselves somewhere along the canal.
