>> 6)  I stayed twice last year on Kauai. I found the only source for gf is a 
>> health food store in the middle of the island in a shopping center. It is 
>> the only shopping center and everybody knows about it and can direct you 
>> to it. Unfortunately I forgot the name of that store. It is the only one 
>> on the island. They do have a very limited choice of gf food. I brought my 
>> own food and was glad that I did. The restaurants are so-so in 
>> accommodating a gf meal, I usually ended up at McDonalds or for sushi, or 
>> the good old stand-by, steak and potatoes and fish. I must mention that I 
>> am also dairy intolerant and allergic to eggs. That makes it a bit more 
>> difficult to eat out, however I have seldom a problem here on the 
>> continent, but the Hawaiians can be bit testy if one asks too much in 
>> their opinion. I staid at the Marriott Resort and called ahead, the chef 
>> there had gf food ready for me, but the bread was spelt bread, and he also 
>> had a  selection of cheese for me, which I could not eat either. You see, 
>> they try but the knowledge is limited.
>>
>> 7)  I don't have any info about eating GF (sorry!) but just tore out an 
>> article about travel to Kauai - one thing that looks totally cool is The 
>> Kipu Falls Zipline Safari,  available thru Outfitters Kauai 808-742-9667. 
>> It combines kayaking, hiking and ziplining amongst jungle streams, 
>> waterfalls, swimming holes and suspension bridges. I don't have any 
>> interest in the company, but the photos and article sounded really 
>> awesome.
>>
>> 8) You will love Kauai!  My husband and I just spent part of our honeymoon 
>> there in October.  I did not know I was gluten intolerant when I was 
>> there, but as I remember, the Hawaiian diet in general is very gluten-free 
>> friendly.  Lots of fruit and vegetables and fish.  The
>> starch staples are generally rice and potato salad or macaroni 
>> salad(unfortunately not gf!) They also have these cool baked sweet
>> potatoes that are purple!  They have farmers markets at various places 
>> around the island each week.  We stopped at a few and got wonderful 
>> produce at a very reasonable price.  The concierge at your hotel should be 
>> able to give you a list of the weekly locations.
>> We did a kayak/hike to a waterfall that was fantastic, also a helicopter 
>> tour.
>>
>> 9)  Ooh, I'm so jealous! I went to Kauai on my honeymoon (almost 17 years 
>> ago) and I never wanted to leave! It's SO beautiful there; every time you 
>> think you've seen the most gorgeous view, there's another one around the 
>> bend. I can't help you out with gf restaurant suggestions, but one of the 
>> most wonderful ( and unforgettable- even 16+ years later) days we had was 
>> on the Captain Zodiac raft ride along the Ne Pali coast. I recommend it 
>> highly! They were able to take us into some sea caves. There were giant 
>> sea turtles swimming next to our raft, amazing views and beatiful 
>> waterfalls.   I googled it and it's still there, so here's a link.  Click 
>> here: Kauai snorkeling and Kauai rafting: Captain Zodiac Kauai  Other than 
>> that, we rented a convertible for our stay and just drove all over the 
>> place with the top down (use lots of sunscreen - the sun is really strong 
>> there).   Have a great time!
>>
>> 10) Congratulations and best wishes!  I hope you enjoy your honeymoon in 
>> Kaui as much as my husband and i did 1.5yrs ago!  We hiked the Napali 
>> trail (take teva's & lunch in your backpack and wear good boots!)We 
>> snorkled on the beach outside our condo (Hanalei Colony Resort)and enjoyed 
>> everything around the area!  The mtns in the Wayamea (?spelling) were 
>> beautiful - lots
>> of showers and rainbows in May! There are gardens not far from the Napali 
>> trailhead  - we enjoyed the tour - well worth the time - the history of 
>> the island and folklore was entertaining!  The flowers were beautiful - 
>> Bird of Paradise grow there like we grow roses here in North Carolina! 
>> Postcards was one of our favorite restaurants. ...And we enjoyed smoothies 
>> at Banana Joes - fresh fruit frozen and whipped into smoothie consistency! 
>> They are rather 'granola' and make most everything from scratch (including 
>> their soy sauce - it was gf when i went!!).  There's a great grocery in 
>> the Princeville resort shopping center (right outside of Hanalei)if you 
>> need it; there's also a small healthfood store/restaurant, but i wasn't as 
>> impressed with their selection of gf items at the time i was there.  There 
>> are lots of places for fresh seafood, so you'll be fine! Take good 
>> sunscreen and a hat and enjoy your trip!  I'm very excited for you - Kaui
>> was the perfect honeymoon spot!!
