I just got back from the most wonderful trip! Forks is amazing and I am really looking forward to going back there! I picked up my sister in Seattle so I got some pics of Sea-Tac, where they flew into at the end of New Moon!

Then, we drove to Port Angeles! Maybe you'll recognize the restaurant, movie theater, and the department store!


The mushroom ravioli I had at Bella Italia! I don't like mushrooms and I really loved this dish! Also, SM had been there the week before! She was in the newspaper and our waiter was in the picture with her!
The airport Bella flew into!
Beautiful Cresent Lake, where the backpackers disappered!
It was raining as we drove into Forks so we were excited! After checking into our hotel, we went to the Thriftway!

The next day, we went sight seeing and to the Chamber of Commerce, where they were SO helpful and loved to talk about Twilight! This was up at the Chamber:
What I signed in the guest book:

Forks High School!

The bench where Bella sat to do her homework:

Charlie's house:

The Cullen's house:

The sign outside the Cullen's house:
City Hall and the Police Station:

The hospital!

Special sign that the hospital put up just for Carlisle!
The Federal Bank in Forks where Bella would have deposited her money (extra from SM web site):
The road where Bella found the motorcycles!
Where the locals think the Cullens would have played baseball!
On the drive to La Push, we found the perfect spot for the boundary line! It's right between Forks and La Push and plenty of room to pull over and pass Bella off!
La Push!
Look what those silly werewolves did! They knocked all these trees over!
The store right by First Beach:
First Beach! It's beautiful!


Me on First Beach!
The tide pools!
We also went to Second Beach which is absolutely gorgeous!

Since Edward can't come to La Push, we felt he deserved some sort of imprint!
We ate at very good places in Forks! They even dedicated food to Twilight!

This may have not been from the Twilight books, but it reminded me of Quil from New Moon! It was delicious, by the way!
We were there over the 4th of July, and not only was the fireworks display beautiful, but they had a Twilight float in the parade!

Random things from Forks:
The ambulance and firetruck that would have shown up after Edward saved Bella from the van!

You have to cross this bridge and river to get to the Cullen's house in the book:
Another river mentioned in the book:
The Checkers that Bella and Jacob go to! (Schuck's is apart of the Checkers franchise, I asked a worker inside)
I can totally imagine walking with Edward in these woods!
The Forks people were amazing and they have really embraced Twilight! We really didn't want to leave! It was raining when we left Forks and that was perfect!
We then went to Portland and checked out some of the places where they had filmed the movie. We met up with Twilight Siren and she is so freaking awesome! We laughed till the wee hours of the morning! We stayed at the same hotel where the cast stayed and it was so nice! By the way, we went to a place downtown called Voodoo Doughnut! If you are ever in Portland, you MUST go there! The doughnuts there are amazing! Anyway, we grudgingly left Portland and made our way home. I cannot wait to go back to Forks in September with the awesome TMs!!!
