Port Townsend Victorian Festival 2016
Mar. 20th, 2016 11:32 pmMy bf and I had a lovely pre-birthday weekend at the Victorian Festival in Port Townsend this year! We drove out Friday, and arrived around 4pm, changed, and headed out to Fort Worden. We had so much fun at the fort last year that we definitely wanted to enjoy the beautiful beach again. I wore my new sheer dress, and he wore his new Civil War Signal Corps uniform. We played around at the beach for a while, taking lots of pictures of each other, and then headed back into town for the end of the shanty singalong.
On Saturday, I wore my cream and green bustle gown. I did a little browsing, then Sean and I attended Val's lecture on how to wear watches, which was super informative! I'm glad I caught it here, since I missed it at CoCo last year. I attended another lecture, too, then met up with DodiRose, and we did a little shopping before I headed back to grab my things for the fashion show. It was pretty fun being in the show this year, mostly because I got to hang out backstage and chat with friends most of the time. I wore the green and cream, then changed into my new black bustle gown for the second half. Afterwards, we joined up with DodiRose again, and she and Sean and I all went out to dinner before heading to the ball. The ball was so much fun this year! Good dancing, and again, lots of time to socialize. I think we were the last table to head out at the end of the night.
Today, I wore the plaid 1890s dress, though by the end of the day, I had had to remove all three of my taller feathers because of the wind! We did a little more shopping with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
vanessa_lynne and her fiance earlier in the day, then many of us went out to tea at the Commander's Beach House. It was a lovely time, and I really hope this event continues next year!
