I was there Saturday and quite enjoyed it. I was also surprised that the dry goods didn't seem any cheaper than we can buy them locally. There were some nice corals there, but with a few exceptions didn't see anything I don't have or couldn't have if I wanted locally.
All the free samples were awesome.. One booth tho that I won't name tried to sell me samples for 3$ each.. These were clearly marked samples, so that kinda put me off.
I looked for Paul there, to shake his hand, but didn't see him anywhere. Saw Christy and Gareth which was wicked.
All in all had a great couple of days.. We were #14 standby on the Coho, and whoopee we got on!!
Customs in Victoria was a bitch, I think they had a hard time believing we went all the way to Seattle for one day to just go to an aquarium show.. Obviously they don't understand reefing!
