What do we know so far? I'm sure there'll be more previews over the weekend..

Does anyone know for sure which one goes first: Botswana or South Africa?
I'm pretty sure that everyone thinks this two hour episode will not be like the long/extended Hungary leg in TAR6 but will have two pitstop with one elimination and the other one a non-elimination (wasn't it mentioned that there will be a new twist?)

The Hungary leg was extended, according to Aaron himself, because the Production found out that it was illegal to beg in Hungary and there was supposed to be a non-elimination there. So when the teams arrived, they decided to extend the leg with an eliminating pitstop at the very end.

If we can tell which one goes first (Botswana or South Africa) we can probably rule out the possibilities for elimination if the first leg of the two hour is NOT a non-elimination leg.

I personally think that South Africa goes BEFORE Botswana (I'll feel so stupid if this has already been confirmed). The Spoiler with the Beading/Husband/Couple/Flight to India says that the woman of the team the person talked to spent three days in a Safari and if I can remember correctly this conversation was held in J'Burg.

From my knowledge, it is easier to get out of Africa from J'burg and so the teams might have been there for a connecting flight to India (Sorry if I'm stating the obvious here....)

Botswana
- Roadblock? : one of the brothers throwing a spear at a bag
- The car accident (Lynn and Alex pass by)

South Africa
- Roadblock? : cave thing, I'm guessing Gretchen finished the task and then when coming back fell somewhere and thats why Merideth was close by. The picture of her smiling with blood all over her face was probably shot when she got rescued from the cave and taken to somewhere with light. Is she possibly smiling because it wasn't a big deal? Or was it because she got rescued?
- Fast Forward : get across a small bridge on top of the Cooling Tower in J'Burg. Deana and Ray obviously goes for it but it says that two teams choose to take the fast forward and from clips it looks like the other team is Ron and Kelly (Ron -?- is in the background of one of the shots of Ray on the Cooling Tower)

How does Ray and Deana get the fast forward first if South Africa is the first leg of next week's episode? I'm guessing that there will be a huge bunching up in Buenos Aires Airport when the teams are instructed to make their way to South Africa. After that flight, Ray and Deana somehow gets the fast forward clue first and chooses to attempt it.

So sorry if ---none of this made any sense/I was stating the obvious/these aren't spoilers but mere speculation/all of these things have been confirmed

Another thing, if Kelly was in the cave performing the Roadblock, then either they were beaten by Ray and Deana to the fast forward or they are not the other team going for it
