I thought a vacation with lots of people would be fun Now it’s becoming a chore. Have you...

It does, doesn’t it!? I organized a family reunion for the summer after my grandpa died and we were supposed to have a little celebration of life for him. The older (50’s at the time) adults decided to rent a cabin instead of camp with the rest of us then they started fighting up there! Not all, just 3 but there were only 7 up there. Anyway all we managed to do is a toast around the fire one evening for grandpa. We haven’t had a family reunion since. The next time most of us go together was my brothers Celebration of Life in 2021 (which I also organized).

Hugs, it’s not easy.

I’ve spent 10 days on the Hawaiian islands by myself. Loved every minute.

I feel you, have arranged group trips /outings several times.

Nooo…organizing group outings or parties is my middle sister’s forte and I leave her to it. She inherited that skill from our mother. I just show up with food.

No I have not, but it's your vacation too, so just tell them that your sorry but they'll have to handle their own itinerary going forward.

Not lots, just four married couples. It worked fine. The ladies did their thing, and we men played golf. Dinner was the only time all of us were together.
