It's like having and old friend and a new friend be the very same friend. And for some reason I can see myself if I was in your shoes wanting a new Leica CM for a trip like that. And a Rollei 35 for a backup. Mark Rabiner Photography Portland Oregon http://rabinergroup.com/ I did just that (almost) this past August. My family and I spent 30 days in Nova Scotia, Canada (a very wonderful place). My travel equipment was Rollie 3.5F 120/220 and 100 rolls of Fuji NPC 120. Back up cameras was Leica M3 w/25mm Canon and 135mm Canon, 20 rolls Fuji Sensia 100 and a few rolls of Provia 400 for low light. I used almost all the 120 and brought home about 1/2 of the 35mm film unused. Next trip I will most likely also take the Rollei and Leica M3 w/ 35f1.8 Canon and 135f3.5 Canon. Happy New Year to all.
