I could never not take a camera with me on a trip, but I favor the shorter focal lengths and have a mirrorless body, so it's not too much of a burden for me... as long as I'm not lugging that beautiful but beastly Distagon. I suppose that's where that, "the best lens is the one that you've got with you" saying comes from.
