Some of the comments read a little harsh in writing form (I'm probably a culprit at that too), but I think most are looking for a little bit more of communications. While it's good to have concrete plans early, it can often be difficult to do so. However, it would be nice to have some updates every now and then, say, on day x, we are planning to have the main do dinner, and we are trying to make a booking at a restaurant on street ABC. Then on day y, we are looking to head out of town in mid morning, but if plans fall through for this, we will investigate on either activity m or n, or something similar.
