We took advantage of kid-free time to visit New Bern, NC for a weekend getaway. It is a small, charming town. New Bern is the second oldest town in North Carolina and served as the capital of the North Carolina colonial government and then briefly as the state capital. New Bern is commonly known as the birthplace of Pepsi Cola. Caleb Bradham invented “Brad’s Drink,” which later he patented as Pepsi Cola. It is also the setting of the Nicholas Sparks' book, The Notebook.
Bears are making tracks all over New Bern…decorated, fiberglass bears that is! Adored with hats, flags, flowers and other unusual and creative features, you will be delighted with each bear’s unique design. To coincide with New Bern’s 300th Anniversary Celebration in 2010, Bear Town Bears, a nonprofit organization, recruited local artists to implement hand-painted designs on life-size standing and walking fiberglass bears for public enjoyment.
Love,
David, Riot, Anya and Aden
