Crossed Something off of my Bucket List and Looking for a Great Camera

So, it has only been 5 days and I am trying to come back down to earth.  I applied for a passport yesterday, an item that was on my "Bucket List" (otherwise known as things to do before I die).  So this was a great accomplishment in and of itself for me.  

Now, I am looking for a reasonably priced, high quality camera.  I am not camera savy and I have a $99 Kodak that has been through a lot and usually resides in my purse in case I need to take that perfect picture! It has been abused.  Any ideas? Know anyone wanting to sell their camera? Cannon and Nikon I hear are good. I have checked Craigslist but have no idea what they are saying when they speak in "Camera lingo." 

THANKS EVERYONE!

Cannon are pretty good (my uncle is a really good photographer and I spent and entire summer with him and my aunt.... again, long story, but my adventures in Colorado were amazing!!). Nikon are also pretty good for that matter if you want something for a lower price but still good quality. Wal-Mart sell Nikon Coolpix, and they're pretty good but still easy to operate (I have no idea how to work anything over $100... especially touch screens!!!). It depends on what you're looking for: A good picture, or Cover-of-a-magazine photos.....

I am thinking something like an SLR camera. $400-$500. I am hoping to find a used one.

It has always been my dream to travel to Egypt. I have had a fascination with Ancient Egypt since I was a little girl. This fascination is the reason I am now a teacher. Thanks to the Lilly Endowment Grant for Teacher Creativity, my dream is about to come true. Let the adventure begin!
