When I was younger & travelled the world, I used a back pack but never used a fanny pack. This is because I saw how awful those fanny packs looked on other people. I fine the comments about carrying phones, laptops etc. interesting. Seems some people can't go anywhere without a half dozen of electronic gadgets along with them. LOL It's almost like an addiction or is it insecurity? Some people need to be in touch 24/7. What happened to real holidays where you "got away from it all"? By the way, thanks for the comments. They were very interesting. I still hate those stupid looking fanny packs!

I travel with a laptop because I need to remain accessible to my customers. I also travel with a cell phone because of all the miracles that phone brings me at the touch of a button. Also a small tablet, because that's where I store the books I'm reading.

The only electronic device that comes with me during the day is my cell phone.

Agreed on fanny packs. Not an attractive accessory.

@toffee - Those commuters are wise. It's much easier to wear a backpack than carry a briefcase.
 
Fanny packs, all for them. I like to gamble, craps is my game. Have you ever stood at a table - your whole backside is exposed. When it gets busy the pickpockets do too. Been advised by casino security that a fanny pack in front is probably the safest. Gives you a place to put your excess chips (leaving them in the trays is asking for trouble, frees your hands up to rake it in. At my age I ignore the clothes police & wear white after Labor Day. I use a backpack to check into a hotel, I walk with 2 canes (best balance, no senior wants to fall & break a hip). Can't carry my luggage with the canes.
