EP3 Title : I'm in Russia Playing with the Dolls
puddin:
just because I spotted these in my travels
Boingo:
The building in question is Gostiny Dvor, a shopping arcade/trade show & exhibition hall near Red Square. Chateau got it right the first time, the vidcaps show the path to the pitstop near St. Basils. The map below shows the building exactly where it should be.

Yipee!!!!!!!!!! Thank you !!!!!!!! :jumpy:
some old webclues TAR8 here , you could see what I mean about the webteasers ( not press release ) going in order , but theres always that possability that #3 happens before #2 if the teams doing #3 are ahead of the team descibed in #2 .
1)When teams take an exhilirating ride acoss a 300 foot-zipline,one racer's nerves gets the best of her .
2)A deep water phobia paralyzes one racer who is afraid of drowning during a challenge.
3)Frustration mounts when teams have difficulty searching for a clue buried inside thousands of Russian nestling dolls

I stand corrected!
Went back and found the name on the building and as others have found the crylic translates into Gostinyy dvor which in English is the Old Merchants Chambers but today has shops and holds exhibitions and performances in the covered yard. The building is fronted by a row of Corinthian columns! (Is this where we see Yolanda and the Beach Boys running?). The doll exhibition could be held here. By the way, across the street is the single domed Church of St. Maxim and the Church of St. Barbara the Martyr. Sorry, guys, but I was looking at the picture I took in front of Russia House and things were reversed. This is also just across the plaza from where we think the clue box and the matt are located.
So it may be that the teams start off by going to the Convent, then to the swim/dive pool and then on to Gostinyy to do the doll thing. So perhaps the Detour is part of the first stop at the Alaya Adventure Center in Brotas, Brazil. OR we have an episode with only a Roadblock and no Detour. I think we lose one team at the doll show just as we have in the past at the hayfield and the archelogical dig in Eqypt.
One shot that still bothers me is that of MO/JO in different clothes (She is in blue with a blue knit hat, he is in a black and orange windbreaker) first in the van (?) and then running in a parking lot toward somewhere. Could this be from EP4 in Stuttgart????? TPTB have been adding scenes in advance just as they did for the preview of EP2 by adding scenes from EP3 (the teams running through he colonnade and Lake on the zip line) so it may be that this scene is from EP4. Which would mean that the Beach Boys, MO/JO and the Nerds are safe this week.
