Thanks for the thoughtful.  Some questions/comments below...

Been there, done that, will be doing it again in 2 weeks. Take everything with you, (unless you are flying, then maynot)

We are flying.  I don't think I want to bring everything.

Leave the 70-200 and 100/2 (LOCKED in the hotel) You will NOT need the 100/2 at all..

Sounds like I won't need either then?  I was thinking if I bring the 35/2 that the 100/2 is light enough and small enough that I may as well throw it in the bag too.

I would almost say just take the Fuji, but there was a few shots that I really wanted VERY high quality.

I'm not too concerned about the difference in quality between the 5D3 and X100s.  I don't think I'll be printing anything huge.  Given that, what do you think about the Fuji?  Seems to me it is the best IQ in the smallest package.  I'm not too concerned either with only having a 35mm lens.  I have owned one before and happily shot entire family weekend trips with only that.

Do not ever burden yourself, Disney is not big deal, go for fun, not to document every second of the trip. You will regret it later.

Good point.

I left my camera behind one day and enjoyed the park more. My wife still had her P&S, but the 1st day, I hated having to store my camera when I went on rides and such. There are some things you cant safely bring a big camera onto.. (the rides, etc)

My wife is a big sissy and won't be going on any of the major rides, so she will be the official stuff holder.  (She cried on the teacups at a local park.)

So, any further thoughts?
