Pressures of date planning

When I say I hate to plan life activities, I really mean it. So I always feel this enormous pressure when I try to pick a date activity because while I want to have fun, I also want to keep the other person in mind as well.

This week I've been tasked with planning mý event with May date and I've narrowed it down to a few possibilities. Now, I just have to see if some of these are possible:
1. Salsa dancing-he remarked last week that he loves my sense of adventure and how we keep things fun and I think this combines adventure and our love for Latin culture.
2. Movie in the park-this is the event I'd really love to do-I'd make consumable dinner and we sit on my 2010 version of a red&white picnic blanket-blue & white- and enjoy each other's company. Think Jennifer Lopez & Matthew McConaghey in The Wedding Planner.
3. Dinner at a cozy but Latin restaurant.
4. Attend an indie/art film-he mentioned last week that our weekly outings were something he looked forward to like he used to look forward to seeing indie films in NYC. Since I sometimes can be artsy, I figure seeing a film together can not only give us some conversation stimulants but maybe just maybe start a routine...(And that's as deep as I will get with that comment)

If I can get internet access tomorrow I will check out a few of these places and maybe make it even more adventurous by texting him the time & address...

Not only do I want to have a good time after spending three days in "the country," I want to help send him off on a good note before he goes to New Orleans where there will be tons of women gawking at him and trying to get into his good graces. We seem to operate on a don't ask, don't tell basis when it comes to his trips, but I'm fairly certain if he wasn't feeling our company anymore he'd definitely say so.

If you have any other suggestions for the date, feel free to write in.
