That wasn't the only fun to kick off the new year! Nick & I treated each other to a trip to our favorite eastern NC town... New Bern! Nick found a beautiful bed and breakfast for us to enjoy..... The Aerie. it was so quaint and the breakfast was delicious too. Our favorite part of the inn was the nightly happy hours where we could chat with the owners about their recent European adventures and their plans for life after their 2nd retirement.
We ate our way through town as always.... One of our favs, Persimmons, had had a flooding incident so we missed out on eating there, but found plenty of other gems like The Chelsea and 247 Craven. Always a treat! It was a cold weekend, but we had a great time in our little town.
We even got to see Rent at the community theater. Not the best acting, but was still a fun night on the town supporting local talent :) Our Seahawks & Panthers were playing each other that weekend, so we had to hunt for a bar to watch the game. The first attempt was a failure, as there was only one TV, not much sound, and too many people that didn't care enough about the game, yet continued to block our view. We finally stumbled upon a local dive, BTM (Bear Town Market), that had the biggest TV in town and a great bartender. The other patrons were interesting, but we had a good time toasting our Seahawks! (Sorry Panthers!)
Thanks for yet another great adventure New Bern! See you soon!
