I like the first list much better.
You have me at list one.
And how funny that you have a list blog...I was brainstorming the other day about creating a blog about lists...such a great idea!!!
I'm hooked now!
Love the idea about watching all the Academy Award movies!!!!
I'm rather found of the first list.
Is that the right answer?
(But I will support list number 2, when needed.)
The first list does sound more fun. But I am thinking if you do a few things from both lists you will feel accomplished and rested after your vacation is over. :-)
Mmmmmmmmm.... Jake.
I like that you include your friends with your family :-)
