Re: Vacation
If you feel comfortable having a stranger look after him, you could post for a reptile sitter on Craig's list, and then screen them very well. You could also hook up with a Herp Society in your area and see if someone there can take care of all your reptiles while you're away. Or if you know what care they need, have a neighbor drop in who isn't scared of them.
I will be in the same dilemma in September when I go to SF for a week.

Re: Vacation
the leo should be fine for a week, just use common sense (feed well before you leave and have a bit bigger water dish than normal)
