At one point during our drive, we were right along the coast. It was one of the pretties drives and I have ever made in my life! And even better, the sun was starting to set so we had some really pretty views!
What a perfect and beautiful place to make a pit stop! It was seriously a place that I could have spent hours if we would have had to time!! Finally after a few hours we made it to our destination!!We drove into town VERY exciting and singing to Super Massive Black Hole from the Twilight soundtrack!! Haha!! Our first stop was at our hotel room. Like I said, we had had a little miscommunication and were not sure if we'd have a place to stay. We were originally supposed to stay of the Forks motel, but they were supposedly full, so we ended up at the Pacific Inn Motel. This actually turned out to be a VERY good thing as we were able to stay in a Twilight themed room!! It was a perfect way to spend the Twilight part of our trip!! There was a big poster of Edward on the wall, a poster of Bella and Edward together, and lots of Twilight themed stuff like towels, lampshades, nightlight, and even light switch covers!! Complete with black and red walls, and sparkly black curtains!!
We of course had a lot of fun taking some very silly pictures with the objects in the room (if you are bored, you can see them on my facebook page). Something that I thought was funny was the fact that we had to sign a waiver before they let us into our room saying we wouldn't steal anything and would be responsible if anything turned ups missing!! Haha!! The next day was the best! I had so much fun being a total Twihard and driving around the town finding all the places from the book! We went to city hall and took pictures with Bella's truck:
And then we drove over to Bella's house:These poor people!! I cant even imagine how many people sit outside their house and take pictures!! I'm not gonna lie...... I really wanted to get our and stand by that sign that says "Home of the Swans", but I had self control and didn't!! After the Swan's house we drove over to the hospital!! The is supposed to be a sign somewhere that says "Reserved for Dr Cullen" but we couldn't find it. We drove all over the parking lot and couldn't see it!! I guess that means I will have to make another trip up there sometime to try and find it!!
We also spent some time on Spartan Dr at the high school. It was SO cool to see the sign!! Wahoo!!
Christine took the last picture!! Good job huh?!?! This was probably one of my favorite stops on our trip around town!! Well.......... almost........ THIS was probably my favorite.......This is the Cullen house! YAY!! It is an actual bed and breakfast where you can stay if you are willing to cough up lots of money! But how cool would that be!!! And it is in such a pretty area!! It is in a little grove type area, surrounded by lots of trees!! Very cute house!! And there was a cute little cat hanging around outside and a really awesome castle looking sculpture too!! And guess what is right next door........The police station!! Haha! I just thought that was kind of funny!!
We also spent a lot of time at a really awesome store called Dazzled By Twilight!!
This store was AWESOME!! They have everything you can think of related to Twilight!! Pens, mints, bags, maps, key rings, cups, stickers, shirts, and a whole lots more. This was one of my favorite stickers: I Kiss A Vampire And I Liked It!! Haha!! We also went to the Forks Outfitters store!! We bought some stuff to make breakfast there and I also got a really cool stainless steal water bottle that says "Bite Me."Something kind of funny about Forks is that everyone and I mean EVERYONE is monopolizing on the Twilight thing! The candy store, the restaurants, the hardware store, hotels, etc. It's so funny!! They have a list of places you can go to find Twilight stuff!!
I had so much fun spending the day out there! I would love to go back some time (seriously people, let me know if you want to go!! ). I think it would be fun to go next fall over Bella's birthday because they have a whole big birthday celebration. And finally, look at this cool sign Christine spotted as we were driving out of town:

That's so cool that Forks gets all into the Twilight stuff! I'm sure that makes it much more fun for tourists. A Bella Birthday Bash?!? How awesome!
I love all your pictures. Washington is so pretty!
Amanda you are so awesome. I'm still on the last book of the Twilight series, and I must say that if in the end you and Edward aren't together than I've lost all faith in love and marriage. You're destined to be with him. :)
