Forks home of Bella and Edward

I would just like to start off by saying this is going to be a LONG post so sit back and grab a cup of coffee and enjoy Forks! It was a FIVE hour drive from Bellingham, WA where we were staying to Forks, WA home of the Twilight books:) Conan and I got up at 6:30am and were off. Our first stop was an hour away, we needed to take the Keystone ferry over to Port Townsend (and let me just say that was so cool, I have never been on a ferry before that carried you and your car!) Port Townsend was such a cute town lots of OLD buildings and great people. After Port Townsend the next big town was Port Angeles ( for those of you Twilighters you already know that Port Angeles is also a very well know town in the book) Then about an hour later we made it to Forks. I have to say that Forks was EXACTLY like Stephenie Meyer's described it in the book, there was nothing there really. EVERYTHING in the town was about Twilight all the restaurants had signs saying Bella eats here and there were TONS of Twilight gift shops. There was even one shop that ONLY sold Twilight things it was called "BeDazzled by Twilight" and it was the busiest place in Forks. On our way out of Forks Conan and I got pulled over for speeding:( BUT Twilight was our get out of jail free card! The police officer said that as long as we didn't call him Charlie Swan he would let us go lol, and then he gave me some stickers that had Forks police department on them YES! Oh what a great day! Here are some of our pictures along the way!
