For scenery shots, go back to film. The Yashica T4 Super is an amazing portable 35mm. It is rugged, pretty water resistant, and has a very sharp lense by Carl Zeiss. It looks like it is worth $50, but the shots will hold up when shooting slide film. Film cameras are an incredible bargain right now. I bought my son an Olympus OM10 for $6.00 on Ebay. I mostly shoot with Nikon FA's, FE's, but I have run lots of film through the Yashica. Buy it on Ebay. It won't be as cheap as the others, but you will be the only person buying a film camera.
