Which batteries should I take on a trip?

I am going to Europe this summer and would like to know if I should take rechargeable batteries or regular alkaline. I will be using a Pentax K100D camera. Since I've never been to Eurpoe, I don't know if purchasing batteries in a foreign country would even be an issue, but I don't want to take any chances.

Hi Karen,

I am European and I have been in most European countries. You can buy AA batteries at every corner there. However, it would be a good idea to have some rechargeables always with you. Here in the US as well. You can always charge them with rapid charger before you leave a hotel. That way you are always prepared and it saves you money too. Keep in mind that the electrical system is different in Europe. So you will need an adapter for your battery charger. Those things are available in Radioshack.
