EP6: "I'm Sick Of Doing Stuff I Can't Do "

Just trying to lay out some kind of scenario for San Jose:

We estimate that teams will be leaving the pitstop between 9PM and Midnight the following day (36hour mandatory rest stop??) If the first clue told them to proceed to airport and catch first flight to San Jose (6AM) wouldn't they just hop a cab and get thee to the airport on time? But we have shots of most of the teams wandering around the streets of Panama City at night, so perhaps they have to complete some task or locate a famous statue or whatnot first and then the get clue to go to the airport.

Street scenes in San Jose. Is this just after arrival and they are looking for a route marker or does this come later? Running without backpacks or camping gear so have they already gotten their vans?  And do they have drivers or do they drive them themselves?

Shots of Vans all in a row. Strange. But this is very early in morning from looks of things.  In promo last night a similar scene in closeup shows the Linz getting out of the red van and the othe teams behind them with the Godlewskies way in the back (note the baseball cap with red bill). This shot of Linz getting out of the van is early in the day; a similar shot is later and the van is now parked on a dirt field and sis now has only a white tee shirt on. In the previous shots she is wearing a red windbreaker or sweatshirt.  Scenes of the Linz running 7 and 8 follow the vans in shot 27 and 28. They are dressed the same and it looks misty in the morning.

Looks like from the fact teams start off with long sleeve shirts and long pants that the ROADBLOCK at the coffee plantation comes before the DETOUR which seems to be carry bunches of bananas or carry an idol.

It looks like the YIELD comes before the Roadblock at the coffee plantation.  Strange. Yields have come before Detours in the past.

Most likely this is an ELIMINATION LEG. Five teams left for return to the States.  I think that 36 hour pitstops are the norm in this race and help use up the days we could not account for getting the remaining four teams to Montreal by July 30.

Slowhatch:
You're right, Chateau. When you reconcile the map found by supsandalee with this road map, then the Doka estate would be somewhere between "San Luis" and "San Isidro" on the road map, which would place it 2-3 miles inside the GoogleEarth Fuzzylands.

and yeah ..why are the Vans backed in neatly ?? wasnt there a story that the teams ran towards Washington Crossing /Pa. and they were told to go back and redo the run for a better shot  {l{  ?
