Lightweight Backpack

Another vote for the LL Bean Stowaway Daypack. We used ours at WDW for the 1st time last Fall and can't imagine touring the parks with anything else now. Its lightweight but still comfortable. The bag does not have any internal organization though so I use travel pouches to organize our belongings.
 
I have a Patagonia pack that I LOVE. You can get great deals on discontinued colors at the end of the season.

For our September trip, though, I bought the Patagonia Atom. It is a sling pack but I didn't want to haul a backpack around in the heat of September, so I thought the smaller bag was a better option. I think if we pack light each day it will work really well.
 
OP, I notice your son is 4. I've always bought LL Bean backpacks for the kids for school. Maybe you can kill 2 birds, and choose a pack that your ds can use when he starts kindergarten?
 

Do you have young children? Our son will be 6 and we are taking our stroller one more time for our trip in May 2013? I would much rather push a stroller, and not carry a bag all day? Plus we think he will get tired! I know lots of people will comment on a stroller for a 6 yr old, but it's not just for him, it's for us adults too! :rotfl2:

We'll be doing the same. I like having our 'stuff' with us, but no way would I ever lug it around in the heat.

I'm very fond of the Rick Steves Civita Daypack. It's really soft, strong and lightweight.

We live next to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, VA, and this is the bag we carry. It is incredibly light weight. We use it at the park weekly. It was a great price also. It can hold a lot of stuff, and the fabric is pretty durable.
