While we still enjoy attending SOI, we do miss what used to be the international flavor of the cast (and that includes the Canadian skaters ). We totally support Team USA, but we really appreciated that mix (Katia, Ilia, the Kerrs, Yuka, Joannie Rochette, Shawn Sawyer, etc.). It would also be cool to see the Canadian SOI tour, but we live nowhere near a major Canadian city. We are grateful that Kurt had done the US tour for so many years!
I have the opposite problem. Wenatchee is easier and closer for me than Vancouver, but I'm Canadian, so.... I would so go to Vancouver if I still had a daughter and a bed there.
