I've always had DSLR's through out my life and to be honest I have decided not to bring one this time around. I traveled through Europe back in 2008 with a Point and Shoot and it did everything that I needed it to do without being "flashy" and daunting to carry around. I agree, the quality of a DSLR far outweighs P&S cameras, but unless you plan on blowing up your photos (poster prints) when you get home, I would go with a P&S. Plus if you get yourself a nice P&S that does HD video you'll be in business. If you lose the P&S or it gets stolen, you're out >$400. If you lose the DSLR on the other hand, it just might ruin your trip! Just my opinion! Believe me, I understand where you're coming from when you say you want to get a DSLR. They are so sweet!
