As you probably know it was filmed in our state
There are actual TWILIGHT TOURS now featuring all the sites.
It blows my mind, but I guess if New Zealand could have LOTR tours why not TWILIGHT tours here in Oregon.
I like your #27. One of the most undesirable things about bars is the need to scream at the person, persons, that you would like to spend time with........
Thanks so much for sharing something of yourself.
But what do they show in these tours? I mean, I get the LotR-tours.. But what do they show in a twilight tour?
Nr. 27 is why I don't usually go to bars..
I have never seen it......I guess I should, just to see how well we fare in the film.....
When the tours began there were interviews with some of the 'tourists' who were all sighing at how beautiful it is.
One lady said she had come on pilgrimage, my words not hers,
**rolls eyes**
from Philadelphia......Others had come from equally long distances. I cannot imagine given it is after all a film, not RL,
but what made me really pause were those who flew all the way to NZ to get in touch with LOTR.
:P
Recently a friend came from VA and when we were in the Columbia gorge, a national heritage site, I pointed out
Viewpoint Inn and then told her it was one of the locales for the film Twilight.
I can see why they used the inn and then further east in the gorge, Multnomah Falls. They are breathtaking.
I guess the location people for the film went nuts here in Oregon looking for just the right sites.
But my "pilgrimage" still goes to NZ :p
My first visit was in the middle 80s and we spent three
week driving. It was fantastic
However, much of what
we saw in scenery, we see daily up here in Pacific NW,
I don't say that as a snob, but just a fact, but
for those who do not live in this area or BC part of Canada,
it is quite an eye opener.
I'm not lacking in the pretty of nature :)
I visited Glencoe in scotland (where they film Harry Potter) - and that was something else. Or maybe it was just the perfect time of day to drive trough there.. Early morning mist everywhere, drizzling a bit. Stunning place.
AND BTW, we even have sheep in Oregon......
:P
I get what you mean about NZ, but I do want to do the LotR-tour... Just a thing. Should a bunch of money just fall in my lap - there are many places I'm thinking I would go before I went to NZ.
Like Japan.. I really want to visit Japan.. and well, I'd like to do a road trip in the US..
I have lived in Japan. What part do you want to visit. If your time is limited and finances, suggest Kyoto area. Quite lovely
One of the few spots off limits during WWII so quite like it was many centuries ago.
A road trip is the perfect way to see the US, or any country for that matter........
I have never been to Scandinavia but have always wanted to visit Norway in particular......Sweden and Finland not so much.
What part I want to visit? I'm not really sure. I want some of the history - and I want to see the cities.. Little bit of everything. Love history - love technology.. Japan just seems like the place for a tech-nut-nerd to visit... :p
Not to seem full of myself (or overly patriotic) but in scandinavia I would say norwa is the country to visit. Not that there is anything wrong with the other countries.. But we do have the best nature experiences :)
No coffee is worth that.....
If I were doing Japan I would visit there briefly, take the train to Nara and then down to Kyoto.....and spend A LOT of time there.
If you go, stay in the small inns, known as ryokan
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryokan_(in
not the massive impersonal hotels.
Believe me, you will not regret it.
As I noted in my last post, my real interest in Scandinavia remains in Norway, not in Sweden and Finland. Just have no interest and after witnessing the Fins in St. Petersburg, it left me even less interested.

Other than Comanche Rider, I am the only other one who finds the kitchen environment hostile.
HOWEVER, yesterday I did have some success when I made a tri berry cobbler, featuring marionberries, boysenberries, and blueberries.
I took it to my sister and BIL's July 4 BBQ and it had rave notices.
I guess I can sum it up by something 'Maxine' said:
"I understand the concepts of cooking and cleaning, just
not how they apply to me"
Thanks so much for sharing something of yourself. It is always a delight to get to know some of the flist.

Why do you consider your height weird?
I can relate only in opposite direction. I am 5'8"
I have been this tall since I was just a young teen, and believe me it can be really hard when you tower over everyone, including boys. AND I won't even comment on what big feet mean.
Thanks so much for sharing something of yourself.
I just love finding out a bit about those on my flist.
I guess I consider my height weird because everyone in my family is at least 6 inches taller than me. My husband is 6' 1".
Is very unhappy if 'the pack' is not together
When my sister and BIL are there, then the pack consists of them. If I am there, then she includes me.
**eyes roll***
There is A LOT of barking at nothing and very unhappy if 'the pack' is not in the house and she is.
Lyca has so many funny traits too.....
She is quite a character. She was a rescue dog.
I hate to think of what things would have been like for her
had my BIL not wanted her. They got her when she was only 1
years old.
and BIL....
It kind of worries me sometime because they have
become so ***deeply**** attached to her.
Sandy talks about her as if she were a child instead of a
dog.....He is not as vocal but I have watched him with her
and he is also very attached.
Bottom line is that she is really HIS dog....
**nods**
That is so Lyca.
She put up with Sandy when he was too ill to take her for her
walks, but.........
