Another shot from First Beach175 viewsThere isn't a bad view from anywhere here...
|
Cullen House from the front342 viewsCan you see Alice putting twinkle lights all around that trellis? Edward walking Bella up to the front porch? I thought it was interesting...
|
Parking lot at Forks High184 views...which is actually much bigger than this looks. What I was going for is the fact that yes, the school, despite the fact that it looks like its only one building, actually is composed of several different disconnected buildings just like SM wrote it. These are just 2 of them by the parking lot.

Sign for Forks High School191 viewsThis stands down the sidewalk from the front door. Apparently, someone was sent from the production crew for the movie to take photos of this sign so they could reproduce it exactly for the movie (so sayeth Mike, who was running the Twilight tour!).
|
Hoh Rain Forest189 viewsThis is the type of greenery surrounding the town...so picture this when you read about Edward, Jake & Bella running through the woods.
|
Thriftway & Forks Outfitters188 viewsThriftway is the only grocery store in town, & where Bella shopped for supplies when she first moved to Forks. Forks Outfitters is the closest thing in town to where she would have worked; they carry the same things.
|
First Beach driftwood174 viewsI swear I tried to find a likely piece of driftwood to be the fated piece where Bella & Jake had their first conversation...but as you can see, the beach is covered with it. So pick one!
|
Forks police cruisers169 viewsWhat Charlie's cruiser would look like. The tour guide told us the policemen in town are photographed so often by Twilighters that they've gotten used to it, and the police chief-whose name is NOT Charlie-has started to answer to that name, anyway!

The first thing you see when you walk in the Forks CoC...197 views...is this sign. Just in case you're wondering if you're in the wrong place or anything. If the red truck outside with the "BELLA" license plate wasn't a big enough hint. ;)
|
More shots of the rain forest170 viewsMy only (very small) regret is that it wasn't raining while we were there (actually, the 2 days we were in Forks, it didn't rain once, only clouded up for a couple hours one day...so it was very Bella weather!).

Just me on the beach166 viewsThe ocean is my personal happy place, and so I have a huge grin on my face. I'm putting this picture up against my better judgment...I don't take good photos, but at least you all will know who took most of the pictures!Aug 18, 2008

Road from Forks to Port Angeles180 viewsAs you can see, it winds around a large lake, at least here it does...for a several miles. Not something you want to drive super fast on...unless, of course, you're Edward. ;) Those of you worried about Edward & Bella being close to water in the movie & thinking of First Beach, never fear...there's a lot of water around Forks that's nowhere near First Beach!Aug 18, 2008

On First Beach177 viewsI spy writing, and I see a Twilighter has been here before me (of course they have) and written "I (heart) Edward". On First Beach?! Rly?? That's kind of wrong on so many levels...Aug 18, 2008

Did I say they love Twilight in Forks?197 viewsI wasn't kidding. More evidence in the CoC office. And they think Stephenie is just awesome; I didn't hear a bad word about her anywhere I went!Aug 18, 2008

CoC souvenir alcove186 viewsOn one wall, there are pictures of all the actors in the movie as well. The jewelry & stone bookmarks are handmade locally and very pretty. Of course I couldn't resist...Aug 18, 2008

Tripping hazard157 viewsIf you wonder why Bella trips so much when she's walking in the woods, take a look at this. Pretty common, even on the "manicured" paths...rocks and BIG roots!Aug 18, 2008

Forks City Hall sign166 viewsWhere the police station and jail are; no doubt Charlie would have loved to have thrown Edward in here a few times!Aug 18, 2008
