and then leg 2 ~ ( insert date )
challenge in Brazil where they'll have to turn sugarcane into fuel to operate their automobiles
A roadblock in Brazil will require them to rappel down a 500-foot building
and now we have a picture of Lake zip-lining
--- End quote ---
We have had shopping trips in previous TAR's so this is not new. John and Scott are holding shopping bags and John seems to have a list in his hand. Also the picture from TV Guide seems to match this sequence on TES this morning.
Could that be Lake rappeling down the waterfall cliff instead of a zip line. I seem to remember, though, that Alaya Adventures also had zip lines set up in the jungle. So it might be both, but I think that it is Lake rappelling . Also if the rappel down the cliff this episode, would they do another rappel in ep 2? I doubt it. Me thinks that whoever was the author of that article had his info wrong and was just guessing and that goes for making ethenol out of sugar cane which is a process that would take up too much time me also thinks.

G'Man, Thanks for the great writeup. You need to contact World Race Productions and inquire if they can hire you as a consultant. Your scenario was much more satisfying than what happened during the episode.
I was extremely disappointed with the opening 2 hour show. Think back to Race 6 in Iceland or Race 7 in Peru and compare all of the activities in those opening 2 hour shows with this one.
Poor John and Scott didn't even get the chance to camp out and bond with the other teams before being eliminated.
