Some speculations:

- Toya and Juan del Mar fail to get something to recieve the next clue from a person in a square and they have to go back to some point.
- The twins don't fail getting the same clue.
- José and Marisol are doing a task consisting in carrying wood.
- 13 is Plaza de Toros in Colonia del Sacramento.
- In 19 Felipe & Alejandro are running to the pit stop.
- Andrea is doing a task consisting in collect some fruit or something from a tree... what kind of tree is that?? a lemon tree?. Is that a roadblock???. I think this task could be the same of these photos:

http://img545.imageshack.us/img545/233/8x2y.jpg

Do you see the buckets that Andre is carrying?. They seem to be the same as the ones in the little photo. What do they have to do with the fruit? eat it? make a juice?
- The teams are using golf cars to go around Colonia, it's a traditional way of transportation for tourists, you pay a certain amount of money and you can use these cars for a pre determinated time.

I think there will be many heights challenges along the race, i don't think he is specifically talking about Sao Paulo leg, but we know for sure they made final 4. So there is a big possibility that they made it to the final leg.
.

We had the bungee jump this week and Kathy did it so there is still that chance  :umn:

I think Rick & Kathy have a huge chance to make it to Sao Paulo, but i don't think they will be telling that information, since i'm pretty sure that teams are with a producer while doing an interview.

Do you remember our missing location in Ecuador?


Well, it's kind of obvious that this place is near or in a forest.
So i started to search places near Quito and in the forest. I asked a relative from Ecuador if he knew a city or town near Quito, that was located in the forest and where teams could practice different kind of sports.

So he immediately answered: MINDO, ECUADOR
This is the description from Wikipedia:
Quote
Mindo is a rural parish in Ecuador, located in the Los Bancos canton in the province of Pichincha. The parish is known for its growing ecotourism industry based in the Mindo-Nambillo Protected Forest.



And the buildings all look alike... they look pretty rural. :D

So, i'm pretty sure our missing location in Ecuador is the town of Mindo. (But i could not say it is 100%)

GOD JOB CHILENO EXCELENT AWESOME !!!  :yess: :yess: :yess: :yess: :yess:

Mindo is the exact kind of location i was hoping to be the unknown place in Ecuador and it fits perfectly. We know the Antofagasta leg was in July 24th. The teams flew to Ecuador in July 25th (is not that hard to get to Ecuador). In July 26th maybe was the first pit stop and this photo of the Pit Stop in Mindo was in July 27th. In July 28th we have the photo with the bags at the airport.

We know at least three locations in Ecuador, the old town in Quito, the Middle of the World Monument and Mindo.
Look at this map:



I see 2 options:
- The first leg was in Quito and the Pit stop was in Middle of the World, then the second leg in Mindo.
- The first leg with the pit stop was in Quito, theN in the second leg they went to Middle of the World and then to Mindo.

PIT STOP = MINDO LAGO???? http://www.mindolago.com.ec/





POSSIBLE ROUTE:

LEG 1- El Calafate, Argentina
LEG 2- El Calafate, Argentina to Buenos Aires, Argentina.
LEG 3- Buenos Aires, Argentina to Tigre, Argentina
LEG 4- Tigre, Argentina to Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay
LEG 5- Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay to Montevideo, Uruguay
LEG 6- Montevideo, Uruguay to Santiago, Chile
LEG 7- Santiago, Chile to San Pedro de Atacama, Chile
LEG 8- San Pedro de Atacama, Chile to Antofagasta, Chile
LEG 9- Antofagasta, Chile to Quito, Ecuador
LEG 10- Quito, Ecuador to Mindo, Ecuador
LEG 11- Mindo, Ecuador to Salvador de Bahia, Brazil
LEG 12.1 - Salvador de Bahia, Brazil to Sao Paulo, Brazil
LEG 12.2- Sao Paulo, Brazil


SECOND OPTION FOR BRAZIL

LEG 11- Mindo, Ecuador to Salvador de Bahia, Brazil
LEG 12.1 - Salvador de Bahia, Brazil to ????, Brazil
LEG 12.2- ????, Brazil to Sao Paulo, Brazil

THIRD OPTION FOR BRAZIL

LEG 11- Mindo, Ecuador to ????, Brazil
LEG 12.1 - ????, Brazil to Salvador de Bahia, Brazil
LEG 12.2- Salvador de Bahia, Brazil to Sao Paulo, Brazil

Mindo Lago absolutely matches with the Pit Stop!

And about the route, i would say it is the third option, Leg 11 in Salvador and 12 in Sao Paulo both parts.

THIRD OPTION FOR BRAZIL

LEG 11- Mindo, Ecuador to Salvador de Bahia, Brazil
LEG 12.1 - Salvador de Bahia, Brazil to Sao Paulo, Brazil
LEG 12.2- Sao Paulo, Brazil

I think there will be a lot of height challenges in the race, between them are Tigre and Sao Paulo.

From Harri's twitter:
Me encanto Uruguay! El siguiente destino tambien- America Latina no deja de sorprenderme

I loved Uruguay, the next destination too. Latin America keeps surprising me.

Next destination? He's talking about Montevideo or Chile.

There is a promo for the fifht episode:

- Jose/Marisol, Nico/Andre, Demi/Maxi, Rick/Kathy and Pablo/Rosario arrived on the same bus in Montevideo, so at least those teams are being realesed at the same time in the bus terminal. Then i guess Alejandro/Felipe, Toya/Juan, and the twins went on an earlier bus.
- The roadblock is the padlock-key challenge from TAR 6 in Fuente de los Candados: Andre, Rosario, Jose, Rick, Demi and Toya are doing it.
- There is a task in Velodromo Municipal consisting in run a small bike around the velodrome: Pablo & Rosario are doing it and Jose/Marisol are shown in that place.
- There is other challenge i don't understand very well: both team members have a leg tied to a leg of the partner, it's like a "3 legs" game??, and they are carrying balloons. I don't know if they have to deliver the ballooons or something. Kathy/Rick, Pablo/Rosario and Demi/Maxi are doing it.

WHAT DO YOU THINK GUYS??

Looks like we'll have some changes in the positions in the bottom 5, i think the top 3 will remain the same, because i agree that they were on an earlier bus.

It looks like the leg will have interesting tasks, like the locks Roadblock.

The task in the velodrome is a route marker challenge, you can see Marisol holding the route marker clue and behind her is the cluebox. I still don't understand the task with the tie legs and the balloons, the only thing i know is they are walking in front of Playa Ramirez.

I agree the top 3 will remain the same and the bottom 5 will change, i think Maxi and Demi could get 4th place this time, Kathy and Rick could get a better position than Jose/Marisol or Nico/Andre and Rosario & Pablo will be the last team with a Speed Bump for the Santiago leg.

It is completely boring, the positions never change, but i still think this season is way better than season 2 , but not better than season 1.

I found this interesting video i wan to share:

It's a "Behind the scene" with some interesting images.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/hU97baBLCYY?version=3&amp;feature=player_detailpage" target="_blank" class="new_win">http://www.youtube.com/v/hU97baBLCYY?version=3&amp;feature=player_detailpage</a>



In this one you can see Kathy, Rick, one of the twins and Alejandro. They are in Huanchaca Ruins, in the left side as you can see from this image:

http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/656/53219532403be0df5fa3.jpg

To me it looks like Alejandro and Felipe have just arrived, we know the twins were the winners of this leg, Kathy and Rick arrived after the twins and Alejandro and Felipe after Kathy and Rick (i don't know in which position).



Demi and Maxi doing some task, it looks like Brazil (remember the palm trees??), i would say the made it to Salvador.



One of the twins doing a swimming challenge.



And this is our building for the final leg in Sao Paulo.

Maybe someone can find something else.  :tup:

Look at this photo from that video.



Well we can see Demi and i'm a 85% sure the guy with the red shirt is one of the twins.
Well... guess where they are!



Yeah.. it's Sao Paulo... they made it to the finale.
The name of the building is Edificio Condominio Saint Honoré.

Next time: SANTIAGO!

Teams will visit Mall Sport, and the Mercado Central (Same as TAR 7 and TAR Brazil).
Marisol will be on a wheelchair, because of her injuries.
Pablo & Rosario speed bump looks like they have to walk in the heights (also in Mall Sports), Rosario will have problems with it.

Yeah, they are one of my favourite teams, so bad they will be eliminated instead of a team that can't give their 100% (José & Marisol)
