Open Question: Best things to do on Maui?
My fiance and I are going to Maui for our honeymoon in a little over a week. We have our hotel/luau booked. We are staying kind of on the northern side of west maui.
Now we are just planning some of the more laid back activities, so we don't just show up not having a clue what to do!
I have been to Hawaii before with my parents when I was younger, but my mother did most of the planning. We had gone to Oahu, so the "things to do" portion was really quite easy. Pearl Harbor, Waikiki, etc. I have no idea what there is to do on Maui besides the usual tropical island activities like swimming, sunbathing, messing around with the waves.
Anyone been there with some good advice?
Things we already have planned:
Couples spa/massage
Beach day (swimming, sunbathing, bodysurfing)
Luau
Road to Hana (One of our friends said this was a blast, but usually an all day event)
We will be there for 6 days, so we definately need more to do than just lay on the beach. You can do that for days, but we don't need to spend over $3k to do that!
Anything really stand out for people who have been there?
Good site seeing? Parasailiing? Jet skiing? Snorkeling? (I was going to look into that Snorkeling crater boat trip thing). If you go snorkeling would you suggest that Molokini Crater or do you think more land based snorkeling is better? I mean, I don't have a HUGE fear of open water, but it sometimes becomes an issue depending on how "open" it is.
Any info would be great!

Voting Question: Couldn't Redistribution of Wealth in America be a great thing?!?
I had a dream about this last night and it made me very excited.
Imagine you don't have to work so hard anymore anywhere! You can live lavishly in Hawaii because of Government Redistribution of Wealth.
Here is what we can do!
If you don't work, you would get $14,000 a year USA Govt Redistribution of Wealth......welfare benefits basically
If you work any other job, you get to keep up to $18,000 of the profits you make, plus the $14,000 redistribution of wealth, totaling $32,000 per year!
Yes I know it comes out to less than salaries now, but that would be the consequence of the redistribution of wealth system! However, we'd live more equally,
We would do things we love to do, grow farmfresh food, live freely on the land, have water balloon tosses, free airplane flights, free healthcare...all voluntarily provided not for much pay but because we LOVE to share and live equal...
people could live in crowded apartments, hotels can be turned into dormitories for people all ages.....
We could have massive sized public swimming pools
You would get $18,000 from the work you do, and 14,000 welfare no matter who you are....
All education would be FREE, and online, and videos online, and exams and you get qualified you get a chance to get the $32,000.
We'd be simpler people, less to worry about, happier....everyone sharing cars, frisbees, having fun outdoors, sharing a computer....all happy and less rich but happier....
You go to the grocery store, you would have happy cashieers working to make the 32,000 a year mark,
and if they get laid off, they can live on the $14,000 while training in med school and then get the 32,000 later....and feel good about themselves
Now also if the Govt can't raise enough revenue to pay everyone $14,000 with the work done in excess of the $32,000....
we would raise the Federal Debt Ceiling and borrow money accordingly from China, who would embrace us for being more equal

Resolved Question: Will you play this BNG? #2?
1. You're 18, and you're a big-city girl, born and raised in Huntington Beach, California. You're the most popular girl in your high school, and the richest, and the prettiest, and one of the smartest; you have everything going for you. Even though Huntington Beach is your paradise, you decide to get away from the sun, surf and sand for college. You're accepted into Oxford Univeristy in England! You pack your bags and that August you head on a plane ride to London. You're finally there, and you are having tough troubles getting all your heavy furniture into your dorm. Then you eye a cute guy running across the green, and he's running towards you! He asks you, in a handsome British accent, if you need any help. You reply, sure, I'd love some help, thanks. After moving all of your things into your room, he asks you out to dinner, and you approve. You learn he's native to London, and he's studying to be a doctor; just like you! Your realtionship esclaides during your college years. When you graduate, your parents surprise the two of you with a month long trip at a resort in Maui (hey, you have the money!). On your last day in Hawaii, you and your boyfriend take a long, sunset-lit walk on the beach. You see a pale blue box sticking out of his pocket, and you automatically know it's a Tiffany's box. He gets down on one knee, and he proposes! You're thrilled, and you obviously say yes! What is your name? What is your fiance's name? What do they two of you look like? What does the ring look like?
2. Since money's not a problem, your parents decide to pay for everything and give you the wedding of your dreams! You get married at the Four Seasons hotel in New York City, and you invite 300 of your closet friends and family.
Your amazing reception: http://www.personkillianblog.com/storage…
Your Vera Wang dress: http://image.dhgate.com/upload/20098/56/…
Everything is perfect! You take a month long honeymoon at an extravagant resort in Fiji.
3. Months later after your wedding, you find yourself pregnant! You give birth to a beautiful, healthy baby girl.
Her first name can be anything from these multiple lists: http://pregnant.thebump.com/baby-names/p…
Her middle name can be whatever you want. What is her name? What does she look like?
4. Your little family lives in a beautiful, modern penthouse in New York City, and you want to move back to your hometown of Huntington Beach before you have more kids. What does your house look like?
5. Your daughter is 4, and she's already been to Paris, London and Rome multiple times! What a little diva! You think it's time to give her siblings, but you're having trouble convincing, so you turn to IVF. They think the first time around it won't work as well, so they implant 5 embryos. They were wrong! You're pregnant with quintuplets! Their genders can be whatever you like, and same with the names. What are their names and what do they look like?
Just so this question doesn't get deleted, what is your favorite song?
Enjoy, and star if you'd like more!
Sorry the links don't work! I posted this question TWICE before, but they didn't show, so I don't know.
