I completely understand what you're saying, and this happens to me all of the time. It's always a pain in the ass when you're with more people. I just went to vegas with 4 other couples....I understand.

That said, I think you're making a bigger deal of this than life dictates you should. My friend and his 3 kids who lost their wife and mother last night, would tell you to go have a great time, enjoy the trip and make the best of what isn't a bad situation at all in the big picture.

You're going to a resort with plenty to do, not sharing a cell in a Turkish prison.

For example, part of the deal includes a buffet breakfast in the morning. If it was just us, we'd go down and eat whenever we felt like it. If we felt like sleeping in, we could. If we felt like starting our day early, we could. Now though, we have to go through the whole process of figuring out a time to meet for breakfast. Then we'll likely have to set an alarm to make sure we're on time, etc.

I guess my idea of a "vacation" is freedom. Do what you want, when you want. With another family, it's harder to do that.
