What do you carry into WDW?

[sajetto]

A fanny pack,
backpack,
or both

[Breeze]

Just a fanny pack and that's it. I really hate having to keep track of anything!!

[Keith]

There's no "neither" option :) I carry a camera and my room key (+ maybe a few dollars in my pocket for water)

I know it's different if you have to worry about kids and so on, but I'm always amazed when I see how much some people carry into the parks!

[Chris/Lisa]

Used to just be a bum bag (fanny pack) but now we have kids we take a LOAD more stuff - so several backpacks as well

[katie]

One small backpack with passports, drivers licenses, water, sun cream, sunglasses, camera, pain relief tablets, tissues, wet wipes, sandwich for lunch and a couple of apples.

Katie :)

[Whitequeen]

None of the above. :shrug:

[tajainaz]

None of the above.

Just my regular shoulder bag (with as much of its contents removed as possible) with a small camera bag attached and a bottle strap.

Fanny packs are :gairy: and I've never adapted to a backpack. :shrug:

[Isafari]

I don't care who sees me....I wear a fanny pack. They are great, just click them on and forget about them. I don't trust a backpack because I've heard of people getting theirs slit and goods stolen :(

[JuniorMickey]

I can't stand bum bags. I go for a mini backpack called a half pint. It's made by Jansport and awesome. Big enough for my trip report note book, wallet, camera and other essentials but not so big that I can make it too heavy.

[Tinker]

I sometimes wear a fanny back, but this past trip I only carried my camera bag and I put my small wallet in the film pocket . :D

[GoofyDuck]

My wife uses a fanny pack while I carry a backpack. We carry medicines, papers, cameras, ponchos, and other odds and ends. We each carry a water bottle filled in the morning with ice from the ice machine. We keep tickets, fastpasses, driver's licence, travellers cheques, safe key, and other items in the fanny pack. Backpacks also come in handy for those rolls that we can't finish. :D

[Josette]

I take a backpack to carry the antibacterial lotions/gels, and whatever we would need, for our spontaneous adventure.

[psdjmem]

carry a small backpack with DD emergency asthma meds, hand cleaner, sunscreen, our extra rolls of film and extra video camera tapes I put my camera in there and the video camera gets squashed in as well. I carry a small little wallet type thing for the room key and ID a few bucks incase I need a mickey bar fix :D

What? In the parks? :eek:

[wdwgrandma]

None of the above! I have a small camera case that I tuck everything into!

[disneymeces]

fanny pack, with as little as possible. Water bottles have strap, easy to carry. Lotion has clip, easy to carry. Kids water bottles have a clip so they can carry their own.

[d_dreamer]

I carry neither! I wear a purse on one shoulder, an Epcot water bottle strap with a watter bottle, then I have my digital camera hung around my neck. With my dorky shorts, heavy sun screen, a visor with the word "Alaska" on it, hair tied back and my sun glasses on. I call my self Super Tourist!

[Sweet_girl99]

:rotfl: too much!

[Belle230]

I take a backpack. :overhere:

[d_dreamer]

I take a backpack. :overhere: I would be to paranoid to take a backpack... afraid someone would pick backpack

Sweet_girl99
too much!not really... you get used to it

[Watchinherskip]

With DD now in her teens, a fanny pack is great. Sometimes if weather is going to be a problem a small back pack to keep all the rain gear in. You can have the best of both worlds by getting a convertable bag or expanding fanny pack...that sounds really bad together..expanding and fanny..eeks.

well here is one for you

This fanny pack expands to a small backpack.

[d_dreamer]

oooooh nifty!

[firsttimer03]

We have a back pack that is insulated so we make sandwiches and bring drinks along w/snacks. It helps save money :) (big time!) :) on food and we have more time. :wink:

[sajetto]

That expanding fanny pack is really nice!! Pretty steep though:unsure:

[Goofylady]

I like fanny packs and take one to DW, but usually use a backpack. Once you have children, no matter the age, you carry things for them also.
:blink:

[Cindernaenae]

No packs. I just give the camera and stuff to DH, and he puts them in the cargo pockets of his shorts.

I put my room key, cash, drivers' license, and a credit card in my pocket.

Wow...I wouldn't have thought that people are stealing like this while at WDW.
I guess growing up in near a big city (New York) I got used to being streetwise with my purse, backpack, etc. And now that I'm no longer in NY I guess I've let my guard down a bit to the point where I wouldn't have expected that to happen in of all places WDW!!! But anything can happen anywhere...I guess! :shrug:

BTW...we do carry a backpack...and I'll be carrying a hydration pack with pockets this trip!

Very nice concept!
