From Forks ... to Hogwarts ...

Sparkling Alice & Wolf Girl were up early on their last morning at The Cullen House ... not because they were eager to leave ... but because they had more shopping to do before they left Forks ...!



Alice was delighted to discover that it was gingerbread pancakes for breakfast ... having read about how fab they were in their room's journal ...!










Then, after saying "Goodbye" to the Cullens ... the girls finally left ... & headed to the Thriftway ... where they picked up a couple more things ... including another Twi-fan, who they took with them to Leppells ... where they'd been coveting a Twilight in Forks mug since they arrived on Monday ...






By now, Sparkling Alice & Wolf Girl were feeling a little like minor celebrities in Forks ... as most of the shop-keepers seemed to be recognising them from their trip last summer ... so much so that the girl in Sully's burger bar commented on it .. & the man in Native even re-opened the store after he had closed & gave them discount ...!



Just before 10am, the girls reluctantly dragged themselves away from their favourite place & headed through the stunning Washington scenery back towards Seattle ...

When you see the way the mist hangs in the trees like cotton wool ... you can really understand why Stephenie Meyer picked this area of the Pacific Northwest as the backdrop for her amazing stories ...





After a short pit-stop at Target in Silverdale ... Sparkling Alice & Wolf Girl drove back into Seattle to meet Chas & Ruby at the Harry Potter Exhibition in the Pacific Science Centre ... which although quite expensive ... proved to be very good ... & included outfits worn by Rob ...!









Sparkling Alice even managed to make one last Twi-related purchase in the shop at the end of the exhibition ....! ;o)
