I just got back from my honeymoon to Maui and wanted to let everyone know who helped me have the best time ever. The helicopter tour was AMAZING, a must-do if you can afford it. Sunshine Helicopter Tours has a seat they help you transfer onto that lifts you up to the helicopter, then they help you transfer on and buckle up. The view and sights are incredible. My favorite thing tho was snorkeling!! It was my first time swimming since my injury but I did just fine. I had to call several different places before finding Boss Frogs who totally took care of me. They picked my up, chair and all to get me up and down the stairs of the marina and lifted me on either side to get me up and down the stairs of the boat to helping me in and out of the water. The QuickSilver crew was great!!

I would like to echo Goose. I hope you have a happy, fulfilling marriage. I am celebrating my 40th anniversary today and wish for you many happy years to come.

Good luck to you both.

Been to Maui too and it's wonderful - the world in colour !!!!

Used Lahaina Divers and they were really helpful and knew what they were doing for disabled divers.

Stayed at the Sheraton Resort which is good and have some spacious adapted rooms but not cheap
hope believe achieve
