No, you're not the only one to like the first film better. I'm in almost complete agreement with you, only I did like Thranduil's halls. And I missed the eyes in the dark and the enchanted river and the lights of the Elven feast... PJ practically slaughtered Tolkien's Mirkwood sequence, which I find hard to forgive.
BTW, best wishes for 2014, and especially less work related stress!
