I tried to talk my parents into us vacationing there this summer but they said I'd hate it because I don't like walking or anything that involves well... exercise.

Thanks for all the pics, Andie

Wow, the beach looks so gorgeous

The next time I go to Washington State I'll go to Forks, that's for sure

I think I'd still like to go for a few days at least - to get the feel of the place and just drive around and look at everything. It's really beautiful.

Me too

I'd be taking heaps of pictures of course. The Twilight series must be great for the town... I assume they get much more tourists these days

Thanks for the thread Andie.

I think it was last September the town was promoting a Twilight Tour, to encourage fans to come and visit the locations used in the books.

The beach looks ... wild, undeveloped - perfect for werewolves.

Cool thread Andie. Thanks for starting and for all the pics.

I gotta admit I want to visit one day!

The Twilight tour would be fun.

Ya know, we should organize a Fan Forum trip up there or something

Can you see the headlines?

"Bunch of obsessed Twilight fans from invades the city of Forks". Of course we'd need the fitting shirts and stuff as well.

If it were organized, I would definitely come I'd have to have a little while to save up, but I could do it!
