Hello!

As a boogie-boarder by heart and a would-like-to-be-a-real-surfer,
I think theres no other place for my honeymoon (in june 93) but
Hawaii. I am still working on my girlfriends mind, for she doesn't
feel like a surfer's bride, but I hope this job will be done 
if it comes to book the flight.

But before I can fly there is a little problem:

	The travell-agency would like to take a fortune
	off my bank-account for this holliday.

Unfortunatly there is no fortune in my or my girlfriends account.
So, what I need is some help to work out cheap flights and
accomodation.

For those of you, who are willing to help me two things:

	first all help is welcome, even if it doesn't
	match the list later on exactly

	second the above mentioned list (where I say 'I' I also
        mean we) :

-I would like to stay 4 or 5 weeks on holliday. Here in Germany 
 they charge about 840,-Marks or 560,-US$ per week and per person.
 This means only the bed in an moderate class hotel without 
 breakfast!!! ( And without the flight )

-Flying from Germany to Honolulu and back costs about 2000,-Marks
 or 1300,-US$. This is really expensive and I wouldn't mind to
 fly from Amsterdam or Brussel and probably change the airline
 somewhere in the USA, because there are very cheap flights to
 New York.

-The flights could be one-way. This would give me the chance to
 visit a friend of mine, who has to work in Indonesia(Java) for
 the next two years and would give my me free accomodation. But
 this depends very much on the costs of the flights (maybe return
 flights are much cheaper than one-way flights).

-The hotel should not be at Waikiki beach or close to this touristic
 center and should not be one of those ten- or twenty-something floors
 buildings. Much more I would appreciate a smaller hotel (doesn't
 have to be moderate, standard will also do - I hope) at a more quiet
 place - preferable is a hotel near a surfbeach, but this is not
 a must, as it is not a must to stay on Ohau.

-In fact we would like to go island-hopping and stay on different
 islands to see most of Hawaii, which brings us to infos about
 cheap island-hopping.

-As I mentioned above we don't need to be close to a surf-beach
 and want to see most of Hawaii's beauties. So what I need then
 is a car to rent. Prices they offer in Germany are about 400,-Marks
 or 260,-US$ per week.

-At last, it doesn't have to be a hotel at all. If there are families
 who rent one or two rooms in their houses to visitors we would stay 
 with them.

These points are meant for orientation. If your help doesn't match
any of the above points, but is an interesting point on flights
from Europe or the USA to Hawaii or deals with accomodation on
Hawaii, it may be worth sending it to me. Remember it is going
to be my honeymoon, a very special time in life, and my girlfriend
and me want to spend this time in a very special place. At the moment
it seems that we don't have the money to go to Hawaii, but all we've
got are infos from travell-agencies yet.

Finally, if you are living on Hawaii please get in contact with me.
You may have some first hand information for me.
