Best Bags to Carry in Parks????

[huckabear]

I carried a big LLBean backpack the last time we were in WDW but we still had a stroller that trip and could put it on the back of the stroller.

This time, no stroller (YAY!) but that means everything has to be carried. I'm cutting back, but will still have things to carry and I want some recommendations for the best bag.

I carried a backpack all through some recent field trips for my kids and was reminded that I do NOT want to carry a traditional backpack all through a hot and sweaty trip.

I need recommendations! Something that can hold a decent amount but doesn't hurt your back after a long time. I had seen someone recommend Ameribags but wondered if there were any other recommendations.

Lot of folks like the Baggallini messenger bags that I've been eying. I think anything though is going to start hurting shoulders or backs depending on what is in there! You can also do a rucksack or sports sack.

I am a huge fan of the Patagonia Atom bag.

Depends on how long a day we're planning. We sometimes take a regular backpack or a string backpack (very light and not too hot) and take turns, but I have been known to throw fashion to the wind and wear a fanny pack on my hip. I know I look dorky, but it's so darn convenient!

We brought the Fisher Price FastFinder backpack for our recent trip and it worked out great. It was also small enough to fit under the stroller that we rented (City Mini GT).
