Mini day bag and a 5500 CI backpack

[siddalicious]

I just bought a Cabela's 5500 CI Wind River backpack. Has anyone ever used a Cabela's bag? How did it treat you? I will be traveling through Europe for about 3.5 weeks and thought this would work well and fit within my budget.

I also got a small Camelbak day bag with a water bladder for my daily excursions. I got this 2nd bag because I really don't like the detachable fanny on the Cabelas. Its not comfy or secure.

Is it wise to travel with two bags or just suck it up and use the small detachable fanny bag?

Thanks,
Sidd
