Re: I went to Forks!

It is so pretty there and the whole town has really jumped in and made it fun for Twilighters!There is even a new store there called Dazzled by Twilight and they have some really cool Twilight stuff. I recommend anyone who can go, GO!!!

That is pretty cool. So tell me, what do you do for fun down there? Is everyone outdoorsy or do people just hang out at their friends house? Do you go to Port Angeles for everything?xHaveHeartx wrote:Try living there!

Re: I went to Forks!
Usually we all just hang out at eachothers houses and stuff. Actually go to la push alot, because I surf and I also work at the camping resort. so that's basically all I really do. Haha it's kind of hard to find anything else.Well, for groceries and stuff like that there's the local stores, and a few shops that have clothing.. but port angeles has alot more variety and it's bigger so I go out there quit a bit.

Re: I went to Forks!
That is very cool to be from Forks! You REALLY go surfing of the freezing cold Washington coast? That boggles my mind. The waster is so cold. I don't even like touching the water in Ocean Shores when I have vacationed there.
If you go to Seattle do you drive or take the Ferry? I know you don't fly, becuse that is rediculious@!

Re: I went to Forks!
I really want to visit Forks!
I have been working on searching about Forks and what's around there,
where everything in the series is, and things like that. So far I've only
found information from MapQuest and a Forks tourist site.
I heard about this Twilight Tour thing that a place in Forks does\
(not the 200$ that someones advertising on here),
but I cannot find a site or anything for it, and I'm not sure if I'd rather
just find things on my own.
I really want to go to the Meadow(I think it's in the Hall of Mosses,
but Google could be wrong!)
I've looked up weather in the summer, and it seems alright,
hopefully it'll rain atleast once while I go. I want to stay for a week atleast.
One thing I cannot find is a hotel/motel that's actually in Forks, all I can find is
Inns and Hotels in Seattle and Port Angeles, but I really don't want to have to travel
hours everyday just to get back in forth to Forks.
Oh yeah, and by the way, I live in Phoenix, so that's why I can't just go right away =[
Any tips or information for me would be glady appreciated!!!
=D

Re: I went to Forks!
Google: Forks, Washington
there is a map that the visitor center will give you.
Forks is TINY - you don't need a tour guide. Don't spend money on a tour!!!! $200 - someone is a thief!
Save the $200 for a rental car, food and a place to stay if you want to stay in Forks overnight.
I have a map under all my paperwork. I will try and scan it in and put a link on this page.

The $200 tour is a special twilight thing I think, there's activites,
and it goes on for a few days, they also put on the prom!
PS. If you end up finding the map and scanning it, thank you so much!
I read your message after I posted this, thanks for the info in there too!

Re: I went to Forks!
digging for the map now. Really I personally think $200 for a tour is crazy! In fact it's a rip off and an abuse of Twilight fan's love of the book.
edit: it is giving me a great excuse to clean my desk, which shameful piles of papers, bills, reciepts, cd's, calendars, phone books, gift cards.... you get tthe idea.
I hope it is here or I will have to check my Twilight pile... I briefly looked but I didn't see it
PM me if it is still to tiny. i couldn't add the IMG which was the clearest. Double click on the map. It makes it bigger.

Re: I went to Forks!
lol @ the dr.cullen parking space....xD I can't believe they have that! Hmmmm Forks high schoolers must feel special!jenni_elyse wrote:I was in Forks too! I think I might have seen Dano there, but I can't remember for sure because as she said, "What happens in Forks, stays in Forks!"
I so didn't want to come home from my trip. Not only because I was in Forks, but because I was there with most of my best Twilight buds! It was so much fun! It would've been heaven if that trip could've lasted forever. On the day we left, I told my hubby that I wanted him and the cats to come up to Forks rather than me come home.
It is beautiful in the Olympic Peninsula! Here are some pictures:
