I know this seems silly, but most of the nights we'll be there everything closes at 6pm (3pm our time!) and I think we'll wind up watching lots of TV. I noticed in the PopC's pics theirs were way bigger! I'm just curious about that. It looked like a 13" or something.
3. How does the internal shuttle work? Is it a golf cart or a bus?? Is it hard to catch one?
4. Is there a gift shop with sundries? How about magazines, newspapers?
5. The rooms seem sort of dark and I think I read that comment way back when I started planning, not sure. I love a sunny room.
Hee hee, I feel so neurotic right now asking this stuff. You guys are always such a big help!!  Thanks in advance!

I stayed there on my last trip, I'll do my best with your Q's:
1. Do you mean a kids club? Because CBR don't have any, only deluxes would have organized activities for the kids. But the resort has many playgrounds, and a cool pool area. There is that island you can go to (we didnt have the chance to go). If there are any scheduled activities for the kids, I didn't know about them.
2. I dont think it was a 13" and we had the tv on every morning and nite and it was just the right size of your normal tv.
3. I didnt take any WDW transp. but it was all buses w/ a few bus stops within the resort.
4. At Old Port Royale they have a food court with a restaurant and a gift shop that sold anything from Beer to souvenirs. It was called the Calypso trading post. They also sell those famous Coconut postcards!! They sell anything you may need and there is a little grocery story in the food court area where you can pick up a juice, milk, salad, sandwich, cereal, ice cream bar, etc.....
5. The room did not appear "dark" to me. But if you leave the curtains closed and the lights off then yeah it's dark! LOL Seriously, the room has plenty of lights and a window that looks out onto the walkway around the rooms which is "open air" to the outside.
Hope I helped!!
