  • 7/14 8:00PM PDT, Portland Timbers vs LA Galaxy @JELD-WEN Field
  • 7/18 7:00PM PDT Vancouver Whitecaps FC vs LA Galaxy @BC Place

Anybody up for doing this agan, but this time fly in to Portland, wreck the place, and then train up to Vancouver?

Definitely sounds like a liver-wrecking trip. And it is true, that I really enjoy punishing my liver.

I'm a maybe at this point.

Not sure if the budget will allow this one. However, it was an awesome trip.
If there is any way to pull this off, I would be in.

So, with the prices to Montreal deterring some, are we doing this one again?

Currently, airfares are about $400 for a flight to PDX 7/12, then a return flight from Vancouver 7/19.

Train to Seattle and then up to Vancouver runs about $100 if I recall correctly.

Total is $500ish...

Now that Montreal is pretty much marked off my list, Portland/Vancouver is pretty much a shoo in.

Pancakes and whiskey in between!

Alaska had discounts for MLS fans last year. Wondering if they have some this year.
