We left Forks at 6:00 am & made several stops on the drive to check out different filming sites for the Twilight movie.
Our first stop was in Kalama, Washington at Kalama high school where they filmed the outside shots of Forks High School & they parking lot scenes.
Here's the movie stills:
Here's us there!
Next stop was St. Helens, Oregon where they shot a lot of their Port Angeles scenes & where the house they use for Bella & Charlie's house is. We were supposed to see the restaurant, the alleyway where Bella meets her attackers, the dress shop, the bookstore & Charlie & Bella's house. We only wound up getting to see the dress shop & Charlie & Bella's house. We couldn't find they alleyway, we pulled into a parking lot that looked like that might've been where they filmed, but we weren't sure. The bookstore is actually a law office & we couldn't find it either. & the restaurant is closed now & we couldn't find that either. We asked the lady that owns the dress shop, but she was actually pretty rude & instead of helping us, kept trying to get us to buy this $15 Twilight map thing that somebody made. So we took a picture of the dress shop & Charlie & Bella's house & left. Lol.
Here's Charlie & Bella's house in the movie:
Here's us!
The only dress shop stills I could find were from the inside, so it's a little hard to tell that we found the dress shop from filming.

Our next stop was Corbett, Oregon to see The View Point Inn, where they shot all the prom scenes in Twilight.
