Last time (2003) I brought my P&S and digi video camera. The two are nice and portable and I could still bring the bag on rides if I wanted.

Portable and lightweight...YES
Abilty in low light and manual features...NO

So...I sold the P&S to upgrade to an S2 in (2005).

I recently sold the S2 to upgrade to an XTi. With the 50mm it's still somewhat portable to take on rides if I need to.

With my Sigma 17-70 a slightly larger bag is required and it's going to be bigger and heavier, but not impossible to carry around the park along with my video camera.

So am I looking at buying a $200 P&S to bring along with the digi video camera and just forget about taking any nice shots from my new XTi? Yuch! :(

Maybe I'll just trade off with my wife and I'll go on some rides with the kids letting her hold the gear so I can take the XTi and lenses.

What do you bring to Disnyland/Disneyworld?

Get an SD 700IS. It's more than you want to spend, but from what I've heard and read, it would be great to take to a theme park. Forget about the DSLR. I made that mistake once and will never do it again. It was a huge PITA.
