Forks Part 3: The Sights

Ok so if you have done any research about Twilight, you know that the first movie was primarily shot in Portland. So, I was quite amazed that they had the major locations in Forks to appease the tourists. Here is the Swans home. It is a private residence, but they offered their home for the purpose of tourism.

I was surpised by how similar the homes looked since it was not filmed in this home. Here is Carlie's parking spot at the hospital.
Here is the high school which is actually under construction right now so we could only get a picture of the sign.
Here is Charlie's car
And the Cullen's home.
We also drove by the Outfitters store where Bella and Mike worked, but I didn't get a picture of that. It was really fun to see all the sights. The town is small, so it only took a few minutes to drive through and see everything! The directions we were given made it even easier. So fun to go see how life has changed for this small town all as a result of a few books. You are also able to drive down to La Push, but we elected not to go because I wanted to get home through the mountains before the snow started again. Up next... a few more pictures from none Twilight sights in Forks.
