Fairfield Harbour - Newburn
Well if your the type who would love to morph into a rip van vinkle then New Bern is for you.
And just in case you are tempted to "get active" Fairfield has closed the indoor pool and shut down the onsite restaurants (both).
We are in Windjammer Villas II - the exterior is that gray stained t-111 wood siding reminicent of the 1970's. The interior is badly in need of painting. It looks as if someone came with children and, in self defense, when faced with the bordom made pencil and crayon road maps of many of the walls. Someone came behind and dabed a mismatched white paint over some of the bolder renditions, however a complete paint out is way overdue.
The fabric on the dining chairs is very spotted and soiled. Speaking of fabric, the food disposer in the sink was making a hell of a racket when turned on. What does that have to do with fabric? Well we went fishing around in the disposer and pulled out an old dish rag. Did a quick check of the inventory sheet, and found we were not missing any. How long that has been in there without any action by house keeping or maintenance would make a good contest question.
We did manage to stur up some excitement, we called the front desk and reported the master toilet would not stop running. So long about breakfast time the next day we got to watch the guy replace the fluid master in the toilet tank. Did not improve the toilet, but a least we had a little action for the morning. I dont think I will call them back about it, I don't know if my system could stand the excitement.
We did find there were about half a dozen paper backs in the "library" and I checked one out. Think I better go settle down on the couch and read more, before the other inmates accuse me of being an agitator.
