The Amazing Race Quarantine: Season 1Route Information Clue
Welcome to Portsmouth, England,
You need to make your way to the port so you can catch a ferry to your next destination. You have no money left & you have to beg passers by near your hotel. This means that you will have to go to the Hotel thread on this forum & look for spare change. To find spare change, you have to find posts that were made with a timestamp that ends in :23 (the seconds part). You must find 5 of them to get enough spare change for the ferry.
You have to post a screenshot of the post, where I can see the timestamps & who made the post. You also need to have all 5 screenshots in ONE post. You will get 1 minute penalty for any additional post during this part.
GO!!!
The Amazing Race Quarantine: Season 1Route Information ClueYou have now made it to Portsmouth International Port, where you will be catching a ferry to your next destination.

Your task is to recreate the picture below by hand. So you will need a piece of paper and some pens/crayons, whatever you want to draw this.

You have to upload the finished product here in your Team Confessional oh and, BOTH Team Members have to do it and post their picture to clock in.

The Amazing Race Quarantine: Season 1Detour
Le Havre, France
Battle or CattleLe Havre, France is famous for its ports. During World War 2, the results of the bombing campaign were appalling: 5,000 deaths (including 1,770 in 1944), 75,000 to 80,000 injured, 150 hectares of land razed, 12,500 buildings destroyed. The port was also devastated and some 350 wrecks lie at the bottom of the sea. They have since spent years & hard work on restoring the area & have also put in place a strategy to be prominent & self sufficient in agriculture. Please post your decision in your Team Confessional. You can change tasks at any time by letting us know, but you will incur a 5 minute penalty for traveling to the new task.

The Amazing Race Quarantine: Season 1Battle
Welcome to Battle,
In order to complete this task, you will be playing a little modified version of Battleship. Below is a grid. There's a ship hidden on the grid. It's 3 squares long and you have to sink it in order to move on. You're only allowed to guess one coordinate per minute. We will like your coordinate if it hits the ship & dislike it if it misses the ship. Once you sink the ship, you will be able to move on.

The Amazing Race Quarantine: Season 1U-Turn
Congratulations, you are the first team to make it to the
U-Turn power. You have a chance to either hinder another team, or keep this as a blocker for your own team, preventing you to be in the running if another team decides to use a
U-Turn power down the line. The decision is yours. Please post it on this thread. If you do chose to
U-Turn another team, they will have to complete both Detours to move on.
What will it be?

The Amazing Race Quarantine: Season 1Roadblock
Welcome to city of Versailles,
You must now tell us which one of you will compete in this challenge. You cannot change your mind once you select a team member. You will post here in your Team Confessional. Once you pick your team member, we will post the challenge. Who's feeling like Wordly?
The Amazing Race Quarantine: Season 1Roadblock - Versailles, France
Welcome to le Château de Versailles,
Louis XIII built a simple hunting lodge on the site of the Palace of Versailles in 1623 and replaced it with a small château in 1631–34. Louis XIV expanded the château into a palace in several phases from 1661 to 1715. It was a favorite residence for both kings, and in 1682, Louis XIV moved the seat of his court and government to Versailles, making the palace the de facto capital of France.
As you can tell, le Château de Versailles was built in layers over time. For this task you will be played Wordle, which is a little like building a word letter by letter. Like Wordle, it will be a 5 letter word & we will let you know if your letter is placed properly with a green square. If your letter is in the word but not in the right place with a yellow square & for this, the letters that are not in the puzzle will be identified by a red square. You will get a 1 minute penalty per wrong guess up to 6 guess. If you do not get it in 6 guesses, you will be done but you will have a 10 minute penalty added to your time.
Oh and the word is a FRENCH WORD. There are no accents though.
ANSWER: REINE (Queen in French)
