Lovely shots of the Burgandy region, Brad!
Ashwin and Brad, I'm with you. Travel forces us to pare down to what we truly need, unless we're masochists. The classic trio of 35-50-90 (full frame) is all most of us need for most photography. Some do with only two lenses. But rangefinder lenses are small and light enough that we can even carry four with no strain. Mine go in a Billingham Small Hadley, or a waist pack.
We all have a favorite focal length that is "normal" for us. I think most of use fall into the category of 35mm people or 50mm people. I was a 50mm guy on film, so I'm a 35mm guy with the M8. The M8 bumps all the focal lengths up a notch, with the 50 becoming an almost-75, which I find quite useful. So my old classic trio becomes a quartet, and I take slower, lighter lenses for my less-used focal lengths.
On my trip to Israel with the M8 last fall, I took a VC 28/3.5, 35/1.4 Lux ASPH, 50 Summicron, and VC 90/3.5. At night, bopping around a city, I just carried the 35 on the camera and left the others in the hotel room safe. Brad, my usage pattern was a lot like yours in M8 equivalents: 35mm for most things, 50 and 28 next, and 90 least of all. But I did use the 28 and 90 enough that I was glad I took them.
On some other trips, where I knew I wouldn't do much or any available darkness, I've taken a 35/2 Summicron IV instead of the Lux. A wide-angle person might substitute a 24 or a 21 for one of the lenses, but the same general principle applies.
