What bag do you use in the park? Looking for a sling type

I have used for the last twenty years a Tamrac zoom holster for all of my slr's. It has a strap and can hang over my shoulder, I can put it around my neck and carry it on my chest in questionable areas. Most importantly to me, it has a belt loop on it so I can put it on like a gun holster and carry it on my side and just pull the camera out of the top. I own a smaller 515 for just a small slr (my trusty Minolta X700) and the 517 a larger bag that I can keep my 18-85mm Nikkor and my D70s and the 75-300G lens in the bag. The front pocket holds my SB600 flash unit too. It is a nice compact bag that is very dependable for me. I used to sell cameras and do not trust bags that only use snaps to close them. A zipper everytime ensures the security of all the items in your bag. No more chasing batteries or rolls of loose film that fall out.
 
Hi all:
I just returned from Disney World and after so much concern about which bag to bring (I used the Slingshot), I'm embarassed to say I left the bag at the resort after the first few days and just carried my camera.

I had my bag in the AM at Magic Kingdom with every piece of equipment I thought I would need, however, this was the first year my youngest could ride all the rides so we just enjoyed Disney without worrying about pictures. Can you imagine? When we returned from the Magic Kingdom in the afternoon, I ditched the bag and carried only my pentax around my neck. I didn't even take spare batteries! I did have a plastic bag to cover it on Splash Mountain. It was great!
