Vampires and Werewolves

While we were hiking around the Olympic Peninsula we were doing most of our food shopping in the town of Forks, Washington. If you are not a teenage girl, you may not know that Forks was the setting for the Vampire series "Twilight". The town seems to be making the most of this fact. There was a dedicated Twilight store and tour company (see Bella and Edward's houses!), in addition to Twilight paraphernalia in every single other store we entered.


Treaty line between the Vampires and Werewolves. Obviously.

This one was my favourite.

Port Angeles also had Twilight fever ("Eat at the restaurant where Bella and Edward had their first date!"), but luckily the town also had other forms of tourism - like tall ships and a folk fest.
