Where should I logout the day before?

Where should I head to start leveling?
Vashj'ir - Zone - World of Warcraft
The choice between Mount Hyjal and Vashj'ir is close if you're not interested in tanking. I chose Vashj'ir because of The Earthen Ring rep from quests which gets us a nice epic ring and the tanking enchant.
How do I get there?
Alliance - Recruiter Burns near the entrance to Stormwind Harbor. Accept Call of Duty - Quest - World of Warcraft and go to the dock where the ship to borean normally comes

80-85, added in Cata, AGI > 100, Two-handed, usable by Druids
Crafted
Leatherworking crafted gear is 289 while quest gear at 80 is 272. I am not including any trade specific items since those would likely be better in slot (engineering helm, jewel-crafting trinkets, etc). Also it is not optimal to leveling crafting when our goal is 85 so I'll only concentrate on level 85 gear.
Level 85 Gear
* denotes optimal cat gear. Needs to be tested by simulation. Went with assumption agi>mastery>everything else. Also tried to favor items that can be purchased with Reputation or Justice Points. If you plan on tanking ONLY then favor the items with expertise provided you don't lose agi or mastery. However the optimal cat gear should be sufficient for tanking other than trinkets. Also notice that there are only subtle differences between all the equivalent item level items below. Most people will be just fine filling all slots with whatever item level 346 blues they can get their hands on.
