The destination of the bus when Jenny leaves Washington, D.C. is unknown based on the provided information. The specific destination would depend on the route and schedule of the bus, which is not specified in the question.
I don't know about a theme but Gump ran as a way to relieve his heartbreak after Jenny left him.
There was never an explaination about where or who Gump's father was. Mrs. Gump just said he was 'on a vacation'. So the viewer is left to conclude that he either died or deserted his family. There was also the possibility that Mrs. Gump was never married and Forrest was illegitimate.
The Reason Forrest Gump Ran"i just felt like running" is the reason Forrest gives, but the real reason is that Jenny left him. To make a long story short, Jenny returned to Forrest's home for a brief period, which Forrest said was the happiest time in his life until that point. Then, one night Forrest asks Jenny to marry him. Her only answer is that "Forrest, you don't want to marry me." He asks her why she doesn't love him. Later that night she enters his bed, tells him that she loves him, and they make love. She leaves the next morning in a cab while Forrest is still asleep. That same day Forrest takes off running, and goes for over three years.
Because Forrest saved him from the battle in Vietnam, Lt. Dan lost his legs, which left him depressed and wheelchair bound for a while, until he gets prostatic legs at the end of the movie.
Forrest began his run after the death of his mother, but her death was not the impetus that drove him. Jenny had come to stay with him and she had left unexpectedly. His heartbreak and emptiness were expressed in the film by having no sound in the scenes leading up to the point when he starts running. Later he says, "My mama always said that you've got to put the past behind you before you can move on, and I think that's what my running was all about."

As a child Gump had to run from bullies, which eventually led to his football scholarship. As an adult he ran after Jenny left him again. It was his way to deal with a broken heart.

There can't be a sequel to ''Forrest Gump'', because all the problems were already resolved at the end of the movie. ''Forrest Gump'' is in essence a love story, as well as a "finding yourself" story: Forrest spends decades trying to win Jenny over, and he finally does. They have a son together, and even though Jenny dies, Forrest is at peace with himself because he finally won her love, and because he has a piece of her left to live for (their son, Forrest Jr.). At the beginning of the movie we see the lone feather drifting through the breeze. This feather symbolizes Forrest. He spends his youth roaming around, going wherever life takes him, trying to find his place in the world. At the end of the movie, after Forrest puts Forrest Jr. on the bus to school, we see the feather again. This time it symbolizes how things have come "full circle" to the end. Forrest has found his love, and his place in life (back at the house he grew up in, raising Forrest Jr.). The feather also symbolizes a new beginning. Forrest Jr. is beginning the same path his father took (the same path we all follow) to find his own place in life. The only possible sequel, then, would have to be about Forrest Jr.'s life. But again, since all the themes and issues that were explored in the movie are resolved at the end, it does not easily lend itself to a sequel. Any sequel would have to invent a whole new set of problems for Forrest Jr. to overcome. Since there is no mention of any such problems in the original movie, this would be unavoidably contrived. I disgree with the person answering above . There is a sequel in book form called Gump and Co. It chronicles the adventures of Forest and the raising of his son. I have not read the book, but I read the summary on the back of the book. I used to won it, but never got to actually read it. I am not sure what happened to it. So there is a possibility it could be made into a sequel. Interesting. I am curious to know what it could possibly be about, because I just don't see any way of continuing the story without running into the classic sequel problem: that a truly good movie/book resolves everything at the end and thus there is nothing more to write about. Edited later to add: I've been thinking, and actually, I stand by my original answer. I don't think there can be a sequel to the movie ''Forrest Gump''. The fact that there is a sequel to the book is really moot, since the book and the movie are very different. For example, Jenny doesn't die in the book. She lives to form a band with Forrest in the sequel. Big plot changes like that make a world of difference. The movie really can't have a sequel, because it wrapped up everything neatly at the end, and the book didn't. The book left itself open to a sequel. I came across this information that contradicts what my collegue states above about no sequel and Jennys fate in the sequel book. Also, it would show Forrest raising his son in the 80s and 90s. There have been sequels made with less plot concept. The sequel's storyline keeps to the storyline of the immensely successful '', by having Jenny die. A film adaptation of the book is planned to be released in Christmas 2012.

Forrest Thompson is 5 feet 11 inches tall. He weighs 195 pounds. He bats left and throws left.
He ends his run in Monument Valley. This is located in extreme south eastern Utah, near to the borders with Arizona, New Mexico and Colorado. As a point of interest, these are the only four states in America which meet at an exact point. As such, the boundary between all four is known as 'four corners'.
