I don't remember seeing Vicole in the pictures today, but maybe I glossed over them.

We haven’t seen a picture of Vicole but the one man said they used his phone after the cow to search the next location.

Also, I thought we had confirmation they were en route to Netherlands from the Croatian travel agency and airport photos?

Reply to #354. Did the guy say Nic and Vic was at the cow lift before Colin/Chrissy and Tyler/Korey?

When you spoke to the man who said Victor/Nicole used his phone, did he say if he took his pictures before or after they used the phone?

Yes, but I guess what I am saying is if we had 6 teams in Croatia: Leo/Jamal, Tyler/Korey, Victor/Nicole, Becca/Floyd, Colin/Christie and Chris/Bret,
Then wouldn't it mean we have 5 teams in Netherlands, not 4?

In the video we saw today, they said Hanzestad/Kampen and Gietoorn will be only town in Netherland to be shown on the show, which means I don't think there is another leg there. So, Amsterdam probably won't work for the direct flight to Detroit unless they fly back in as transit from somewhere else, possibly close by.

I think Gietoorn will be the roadblock. Very, very pretty from what I have seen while searching! Perfect place for a pitstop!  :cheer:


I don't think there is another leg there either. But we should def see Giethoorn in THIS leg. But they would not fly to AMS from anywhere in the Netherlands, it is a tiny country, IIRC it is maybe an hour and a half to two hours  from there by car or train. And there are def other places nearby worth a leg. But I am leaning towards a UK leg maybe? Just my spec.

He took the pictures of Colin/Christie, Tyler/Korey, and Leo/Jamal before he saw Nicole and Victor. He never saw Becca and Floyd.

Victor and Nicole looked for Smit Giethoorn on his phone. Looks like a restaurant or bar.

Maybe Becca/Floyd were way ahead? They did seem to blow through Croatia compared to everyone else, so they could've gotten an earlier flight and/or fast forward?

As spec I still wouldn't be surprised if a leg 11_was in Canada. Canada hasn't been visited by TAR motherhood in a long time and it would be a logical way to set up a final leg, assuming that is Detroit.

The last leg before the finale will undoubtedly be somewhere from which they can get a direct flight to the states. Isn't it always?

From this video in Live sightings:

https://youtu.be/B8W_etpKQTs

Shadows look a bit longer for Leo and Jamal compared to Tyler/Korey and Colin/Christie, so I say they are behind. 30 minutes? An hour? I'm not good enough with shadows to tell.

Also a sighting of BVM and a cameraman running @1:57-2:01. Not bad for a guy in his late 70s.

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. 🙈.

That's been my assumption. If the finale is Detroit, then the number of places with direct flights to Detroit in the mid afternoon time frame is fairly limited. Africa, South America and the Caribbean is pretty much out of the question. Most likely from Amsterdam, Frankfurt or London though I haven't done an in depth search of European cities. Montreal and Toronto have several non stop flights. Mexico City and Monterrey, Mexico have flights that fit too, but I don't think they would go to Mexico City again this soon. I'm not sure about the safety situation in Monterrey. There's also a direct flight from Amman, Jordan but that seems unlikely for several reasons.

You're right. My mistake. Becca and Floyd aren't in the video.  :groan: I'll fix my earlier post.

So leg 10 very likely ended a few hours ago. So checking onto departure flights out of Schiphol Airport.

With of the information we have available, which are:
- we generally know the direction they are travelling, which helps reducing the list of likely destinations.
- we know Phil and part of the production must depart first, before the teams are released, so it has to be a destination with flights that allow for this configuration.
- Teams must be in their rest period now, so assuming a 12-ish hours of rest, leg 11 will probably start on the very early morning of 07/01.

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


All the European destinations, if teams are able to fly in any of the morning flights, they'd arrive in the destination in time for a leg in the city during the entire afternoon of 07/01.

Toronto would be more complicated, as the arrivals would be mid-afternoon, but still possible to have the leg be run on 07/01, but they might choose to avoid it due to Canada Day, and set a HOO, so the leg in the city would have to be done in the morning of 07/02.


UPDATE:
Flying to South America or Central America, is possible, but feels unlikely from the flight options out of that airport.

FWIW they have done Netherlands to Spain before so could be a good option.

So with V/N were so far ahead no one saw them or so far behind no one saw them?

They were seen but the guy didn't get a picture because they were using his phone to look up the next location.  It does seem like they were after C/C, T/K, and L/J though.  Just not sure where Becca and Floyd are in the lineup.

This is just what the forum gets like on a day a leg is being filmed that delivers good spoilers :)
