One of the Nikon point and shoot range I would say. Shop around as there are many options, try and get the best features, for your $$$
Also I would get familiar with it before going on holidays, get it a short while before going, take some pictures around the house, get used to transferring them to your hard drive, or burn them to disk. Check to see how the functions work. Understand what the features do, if you wait until you are on holiday, it may be too late.
