PCA Home  PCA Ohana News Swimmers	Northwest Section Age Group Championships  Wednesday, March 17, 2010     Happy St. Patrick's Day! Our flight to Seattle was delayed 30 minutes but after about 5 hours of flying, we actually arrived on time!  Dinner in the plane was the usual....but thanks to Uncle Clayton, bento from K's hit the spot!  We will certainly miss the warm weather of Hawaii.  It is in the 40's right now and Kylie's fingers were turning blue standing outside waiting for the hotel key card to be fixed.  The heater in the room just doesn't seem to work fast enough.  Reyna is going to sleep with socks on!  Team PCA will be hitting the water tomorrow at the pool.  Good night for now!   It was a full flight!                                                              Go Team PCA!      Seattle here we come!                                                  K's bento after Reyna took a few bites!  Thursday, March 18, 2010   We woke up to 39 degree weather....and this was at 9AM after the sun has been out for a while!  Breakfast at IHOP and off to the Super Walmart for some sports drinks and water.  Then Team PCA joined a few other Hawaii teams in the pool for a good hour of warm-up time.  The Weyerhaeuser King County Aquatic Center is an awesome indoor pool.  It was most recently the site of the 2010 Short Course National Championships with Olympic swimmers in the competition!  After a good workout, Team PCA enjoyed some Washington sushi at a nearby kaiten sushi restaurant.  Everyone's favorite was the Salmon S kin  Temaki....no one dare try the "Strawberry Sushi." (Yes, there was actually a strawberry rolled in rice.....)  The afternoon was spent at The Commons at Federal Way, an indoor mall just up the street from the hotel, and of course at Trader Joes.  Kylie's wish of eating at Olive Garden came true as we slurped up some really tasty pasta.  I don't think the swimmers came up for air from their plates!  We were so full we had to pass up on dessert!  Kylie and Aimee have 2 events each tomorrow.  There are about 1300 swimmers entered in this meet.....more than last year!  Swim FAST girls!   Breakfast!                                                                 White Cherry Blossoms?   outside the pool                                                                  awesome!   Smile!                                                                          Hey, look at the camera!   Can you see Mt. Rainier?                                                 Bruschetta anyone?   Breathe!                                                                            There...that's better!
