so I am heading to Disney in a few weeks. I really don't want to haul all my equipment along. I have a D7100 and plan on bringing my 50mm and my 28-85 lenses. I usually have my camera attached to a sling. What have you all done with those extra lenses and equipment.
 
I bring a pretty large camera bag.... I have several bags, and which bag, depends on which lenses.
But if that's all you are bringing, you can go light. Keep the camera on your sling strap, keep your extra lens in a fannypack or small bag.

I'm thinking on my next trip, I might just go with the Nikon D750 and 1 prime lens. I usually bring several lenses, and I'll likely still have several lenses at least in the hotel room. But I'm seriously thinking of restricting myself and forcing myself to be creative with a single focal length. If I do that, I suppose I *might* not even bring a camera bag at all.
Ok... who am I kidding... I'll bring the camera bag.... I'll at least bring some sort of ultrawide lens and probably a flash.
 
I keep the camera bag with everything in my room and only take what I need or each outing into the parks. I tend to stick the extra lens (usually a 50mm) into whatever pack I'm carrying the rest of my stuff in. I wrap it in a washcloth from the room to keep it safe. This works for me, YMMV.
 
Same as above--sling the camera across my body and possible extra lens in my backpack. Leave the rest in the room. I have gotten a locker before to hold my tripod and stuff for night shooting when I knew I wouldn't be going back to the room to pick stuff up. Worked out nicely.
 

I keep my lenses in the safe in the room, and pick one extra to pack into my regular park bag. I keep them each in a microfiber lens pouch, so it's easy to keep them safe.

Going to Disneyland in a few weeks...and I have decided I want to spend much of the time shooting primes. I plan on bringing more than one lens. I plan on rotating primes throughout the trip.

I am still debating taking an ultra wide zoom with me...

For me, it's a choice between the Rokinon 14/2.8 or the Nikon 18-35. The Nikon brings the convenience of zoom and autofocus while the Rokinon gets truly ultra wide. But with family in tow, I often don't get a lot of time to set up a shot, so I might just go with autofocus. Tough choice.
