Then the taxi craziness began: they all seemed to be doing their due diligence!
Some pics up already, will add more if any relevant tomorrow.
Teams stopped under an archway?? And got their cues.
They then left the taxis and RAN
The first task (well documented) Was the bead throwing …
The throwers were up on balconies above the crowd...New Orleans music playing, as seen in the vids.
James and Will left first with a(TBD) lead...maybe about 10 + minutes??
Red and Yellow followed.(intervals TBD once we review pics)
They danced and played washboard with a Dixieland jazz all the way to CAFE BEIGNET.
This WAS A ROADBLOCK
one team member had to go into the bakery filled with stacks of KING CAKES and look for the baby charm in the KING CAKE.
This took a good while… with production trying to discourage photo taking outside. (Very strange since the leg was set up to encourage audience participation from the start.)
James and Will increased their lead and left first.
The two team members NOT doing the task were in the garden area outside and were interviewed JOINTLY.
There was a substantial gap between Janes and the others...possibly around 15-20minutes? (will need to check timestamps.)
Teams left and headed to their next tasks
Will post the rest tomorrow...some interesting things to Come!
Sorry guys...cant stay awake any longer!
More tomorrow with pics.
