I just received my tickets for 2 days of this years PanPacs in Victoria, B.C. Aug 17-20. I will be seeing heats & finals day 2:
100 free, 100 brst, 400 IM, 800free relay; heats & finals day 4:
200 IM, 50 free, 200 brst, w800 free, m1500 free, 400 medley relay. I am stoked to see Phelps et al, possible Japanese-American clash 100brst etc. This, I think, will be the signature international meet of the year (except Masters Worlds, of course) and I would urge anyone within reasonable travel distance to consider attending, as it is a great spectator pool & very fast.
I am disappointed though, that Amanda & her wedgie likely won't be there...

Most of the Americans I've spoken to seem to wish to retire to Victoria and the rest of the island, they certainly have been seeing in fabulous weather. I can only thank our lucky stars that the Geek didn't come up to see the meet...
Don't worry he's already mentioned his dislike of summer weather in the PNW in another thread. Something to the effect "summer is for sweating," if I recall correctly. If you haven't been here in the summer you don't know what you're missing, IMO!
