I wouldn't even try.

Don't even try.
Find another place to vacation.
Or buy a good slingshot. Remember to get each of your rocks electronically fingerprinted. :D

Seriously, though, check out www.packing.org
They are primarily concerned with concealed carry, but they also offer information regarding car/gun laws, peaceable journey laws, and transport requirements.
It's a really good reference. Give it a look.
 
+1 to get a good slingshot.

Get a package of hunting shot and a good slingshot with a wrist stop and its a pretty fun toy. A lot more powerful then you would expect. Like 25 - 30$ for the whole she-bang.
