Planning details for our trip in less than two weeks. We just added an adult with special needs/diet restrictions. I was on the fence about needing groceries, as I will have my 1 year old already. But with adding my brother, groceries are now a necessity. So I have two questions.
The first is easy: are their microwaves in the rooms at CBR or just refrigerators?
Second, which is a better plan for a family that will need a lot of groceries? Is it a better idea to order through a grocery service or to get a cab and do the shopping once I get there? A couple of important things that I'm considering are variety, as my brother is pretty limited on what he can eat, volume--we will need a lot of bottled water, milk and diet pop (yeah, that's what we call it here) and because of previously mentioned toddler, we will need some adult beverages for "grownup time." Cost, of course, will be a huge deciding factor as well. I'm not sure what an average grocery run in a taxi from CBR would cost.
Any insight, anecdotes, or words of wisdom are greatly appreciated.
