I seem to be in a similar situation myself, though she seesm to be willing to have some contact with me aside from kids activities....in fact we seem like we are best friends......

I think the approach I would take would be to just act confident and "act as if" he wants to be with you. BY this I mean don't worry about if he does or doesn't....just have good time with yourself and your daughter....I think going off with your Daughter without him will speak volumes on your ability to get along wihtout him. IN the weeks leading up to your trip I would do as much of the prep worj that you can for the trip and don't re;y on him at all. As a guy I can tell you that we like to feel needed and if we are not needed then it makes us a little uneasy or gets us wondering (kind of like turning the tables). Of course I am pretty new at this game....I guess we are the blind leading the blind \:\)
