The Nikon D300 is a great choice. I will have a Nikon D80. Expect to use the 70-300 VR lens the most. Just got three more sd cards from b&h. Got 3 of the 2gb 133speed lexar cards. They have a 15.00 rebate deal on the cards right now. Take lots of memory cards. Carol will use the Nikon point and shoot that takes video also.

Whose needs to pack. Been packed for this trip for months. Getting harder and harder to wait.
