A Trip to the Goondocks

After Smiles' wedding, which was really great, my brother and his girlfriend surprised me by taking me on a trip to Astoria, the town where they filmed The Goonies. It was AWESOME! We went to pretty much every major location we found thanks to this site. The majority of the locations are in Astoria but most of the beach locations were filmed at nearby Cannon Beach, which was really beautiful. The last beach shots in the movie were filmed in Sonoma County, California though so I will have to do that trip sometime. Read on for the rest of the pictures.
