New Bern certainly offers a lot to the history buff. The town is clean and folks I met were very polite. The atmosphere is very relaxed and peaceful. On the flip side, I had a difficult time finding anything to do in the evenings and on Sunday as most stores were closed. This may be related to the time of year, (April). I don't know...but I would not have been surprised to see tumbleweeds in the historic district. The Sheraton hotel bar was crowded and Outback Steakhouse was hopping. Those seemed to be the main hangouts. I didn't get over to the Tryon Palace but I hear that is a great tour.

(Report Problem)I really liked all the fresh water fishing and sailing that can be done. Your not to far from alantic beach either. Plenty of golfing. There is hardly any crime. I would consider this place very safe.
