Your backpack of choice?

[ChloesDaddy]

I'm glad to hear some of you take the bags on the rides with you. If your bag is small enough, is that pretty much standard on all rides?

I took mine on RnR, ToT, TSM and ST today.

Here's the one I use...

Some don't like having lots of pockets due to bag check time, but I like having them for organization.

The only time so far that I felt like all the pockets slowed things down was at the Epcot IG entrance yesterday. The security guard was extremely thorough. Thought he was going to ask the bag to cough.

I've been using my Baggallini for the last few trips. Love it. You can usually find them for $20-$30 at Ross or Marshalls.

Is it waterproof?

It's nylon so it's water-resistant but not truly "waterproof". I sprayed mine with the water-seal stuff I use for my dress boots, and I've never had anything inside the zipper sections get wet during rain at the parks.

Highly recommend the Patagonia Anacapa or the Under Armour Hustle backpacks

Both are water resistant and have multiple storage pockets including water bottle holders

I use this Dooney & Bourke backpack that I bought in Epcot last year. It's a pretty good size & I take it on all the rides with me with no problem.

We have Baggalini's that we use as our daily diaper bag, but I did notice that it tends to slide on you when you bend over to do something. (Ours is a different model than the previous poster's). I decided to look around and ended up ordering this one: http://www.amazon.com/Outlander-Pac...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

Seems small, lightweight, has mesh pockets for bottles, folds into itself and has two straps vs. one on our Baggalini. So, hopefully no issues with slippage.

I used this one. It zips into itself and compresses to a tiny size to pack it into your luggage on the way there. It weighs practically nothing but when zipped out is big enough to carry enough stuff to get through a day unless you are a real packrat.

I just ordered this one. Were you able to take it on the rides? If so, which ones, and how much did you have packed in there?

I use my Camelback Cloud walker hydration pack. When we went in July I actually used the water bladder too. For our october trip I used just the backpack. I love it. It's not too big, not to small. Has side pockets as well. I'm a huge fan of it.

This is the opposite of downsizing, but I recently got one of these because I have a large gaming laptop that I need to carry around from time to time.

It's very comfortable and has several different enclosures to keep everything separate. I'm going to bring this to use at the parks for our upcoming trip (5 of us). Now that we no longer have the convenience of strollers but still need to carry ponchos, snacks, etc., this will be perfect. It has wide padded straps and a chest strap to reduce fatigue and balance the load.

While I use a small Timbuk2 messenger bag for my daily commuting, this Everki is probably my favorite bag.

I took it on everything I did. I don't remember leaving it off anywhere. I usually just stuck it at my feet. You can fit a decent amount of stuff in there. I had water bottles and sunblock and stuff like that and there was plenty of space left. Some papers we might need. It is really light weight and I was very happy with how it worked out and I'm not the type of person that likes carrying stuff with me. Usually my wife hauls everything for us but I was the pack mule this time around.

My Vera Bradley Disney backpack never fails me!
