CBR pics.

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Momof2Disneyboys, thank you for the pics!

I had been leaning toward POFQ for our next stay. But I am leaning toward CBR now.
I know this has probably been asked a million times, but with the size of the resort, how are the buses? Is it easy to get to the buses from any room?

You're welcome!

There is a bus stop in each village, plus one at OPR. So you are never far from one. Some buses start at Jamaica and some start at Martinique. If you happen to get on the bus at the very first stop and have to make all the other stops it takes about 8 minutes. Yes, I timed it! Once leaving the resort it takes 3 minutes to get to DHS, 5 to Epcot, 9 to DTD, and 11 to AK & MK. We had the best bus service when we were there this earlier this year, with 90% of the waits being 5 minutes or less.

look back on page 3 or 4 of this thread. There is a beautiful video of the fireworks over the beach. They said it was behind Banana Cabana. Could someone explain where that is?

The Banana Cabana is the pool bar. It is right by the pool at OPR!

3 more sleeps until we are at CBR-Pirate Room!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have stayed at this resort 2 other times along with AKL and Beach Club. WE WERE NEVER_EVER DISPPOINTED HERE!!!!!!!!!!!! It's always been clean, well kept, beautiful landscaping/gardening and so "tropical feeling"! For anyone trying to decide...it's wonderful. Plus, if you do rent a csr, or drive, parking is just outside each village. Very close. (At the delux lodges, the walk to the main parking lot can be quite a trek) We have had rooms in Jamaica and Trinidad South, both locations were enjoyable.

We can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, you cannot swim in the water at any of the lakes in Disney, due to parasites in the water that can make you extremely ill.

Yes, I will report on CBR happily! Anyone have any sepcifics they want to know about? (just so I can keep them in mind when checking things out/taking photo's. I can't promise to get to all of them, but I will try my best and keep them in mind during our trip) I am sooooo looking forward to getting there and enjoying the magic!

The cannons are on the Caribbean Cay Island. If you are walking across the island going from Aruba/Jamaica to OPR, take the path on the left. If you are walking from OPR towards Aruba/Jamaica take the path on the right!

Thank you so much...I guess I never paid attention to different paths..we are always on a mission to get to the other side.hahahah I will definately look for them this trip!!!

We probably would have never noticed them if it weren't for the kids always running ahead of us, we just follow the path that they take!
