This may be because your husband is from there in that he wouldn't 
intentionally take you to someplace where you'd have an issue. He will 
certainly know things atourist wouldn't. The old addage "Yesterday we hired 
you, today you're staff" comes to mind but in reverse.

Really Julie:

I have been to PR with Maxx more than once since my darling husband nelson
is from there, and that we had no issues whatsoever going there.

Oh my.
I always understood that Puerto Rico and  the Virgin Islands  were subject
to all the federal regulations of the U.S. like the ADA.   Is this true?

This law does not inspire me to want to visit Puerto Rico.

Julie
