We arrived in Forks around 5:00 pm on Thursday, July 24. The first thing we had slated was a dinner at the cabin a few of my friends were staying at.
After dinner, we had a “Meet & Greet” party to meet all the other women who came to Forks. It was a lot of fun to meet some of the people I’ve been corresponding with for a year.
The next morning, my friends and I wanted to get a picture of all of us together in Forks. We all put on our “What Happens in Forks Stays in Forks” shirt and got a couple of pictures taken in front of the Forks welcome sign.
After our picture at the sign, we went to the Chamber of Commerce. They have a whole Twilight tour and other things dedicated to Twilight. The director said they get mail addressed to Bella and Edward all the time.
We then took a tour of Forks. We saw the Forks City Hall, Thriftway, Forks Outfitters, Forks High School, and Forks Hospital. The Forks residents dubbed a couple of places as Bella’s house and Edward’s house and so we saw them too. We also saw a few Twilight-related signs in town.
We even found Edward’s car!
On Friday night, we had a girls’ night out and had a Breaking Dawn-themed party. The decorations matched the cover of the book. We had yummy food and played Twilight-themed games. I also had my toe nails painted and got a Henna tattoo.
Stay tuned for posts about our time together at First Beach, the Hoh Rain Forest, and in Port Angeles.
