Don't know if you'll get this in time. My suggestion would be, ISO 100, White balance 'sunlight', no matter the weather (can only be changed in M, A or P mode). Check out what the Auto setting gives you on the day, that'll give you a fair indication of what f-stop to be looking at. Then try the camera on the 'A' Aperture Priority setting. I do most shots in this setting. If you are not happy with the exposure in 'A' go to manual and select the f-stop you were using in 'A' and set the shutter speed a little higher or lower to get the exposure that looks good to you. Once you've got that, providing the conditions don't change, you probably wont need to change the settings. But check the shots if conditions start to change.
Focus - For landscape change the focus from the middle node to one a little lower. Depth of field works from the point of focus, one third in front and two thirds behind are in focus, so if you are focussed on infinity one third up the picture the whole picture will be in focus. If you can, always use a tripod, why have any risk of camera shake if you don't have to bother with it at all. Plus a tripod gives you time to compose and really look at what you're shooting without getting tired arms or shake.
