Twilight Forks, WA Travel Guide
It’s always hoa hoa hoa season in Forks, but I’d recommend visiting in the fall for maximum Twilight vibes. We visited in mid-October and the fall colors were just beginning to pop. We spent 4 days/3 nights exploring Forks and Port Angeles, touring Twilight attractions and photo ops, and soaking up the scenery in Olympic National Park and along the Pacific coast. I hope you enjoy my Forks Twilight Travel Guide, with tips and recommendations on where to stay and eat, and what to see and do.

Plus Size Airport Outfit
Take 25% OFF this travel-ready sweatsuit set from @ullapopkenusa with code 2024LIZ25!✈️ A matching sweatsuit set is soft and comfortable for long travel days. I wore this coordinating sweatshirt, tee, and sweatpants from #UllaPopken on both the flight into Hawaii and the flight home. Each travel day was about 18 hours of airport and travel time. Because I was flying between a cold climate and a warm one, I liked having the option of wearing the sweatshirt vs. just the tee. The set comes in this blue, a soft pink, a dark blue, and a cream. Each piece is sold separately so you can get a perfect fit. When I wasn’t wearing the sweatshirt, I could tie it around my waist, drape it over my shoulders, or roll it into a ball for a pillow on the plane. I went with my larger size 20/22 in these p

Shopping for plus size safari clothes was such a chore that I hope to make it less of one for you by rounding up everything you’ll need right here in one place.
