I'd probably say that my absolute minimum kit would be
K-5
18-250
FA 31/1.8
That would give me a full range of focal lengths, plus a fast standard lens.
There is good argument to substitute the 16-50/2.8 for the 18-250, because on
the K-5 you can get by with f/2.8 in most lighting, it's weathe
I'm not sure I'd take all that with a total weight limit of only 30lb.
But that's a very handy selection; it's close to what I have in my bag.
I don't have the diffuser, so I squeeze in the 10-17 and my A50/1.5.

IMHO, the F35-70mm is a no-brainer. It is small, light and has close
focusing capabilities that will probably come in handy. You'll
probably take the majority of your shots on that that lens. In fact,
if I had to choose just one lens to take, it would probably be that
one. I'm a huge fan of the Sig

Hey Philip, he allowed 30 pounds, but I appreciate your support for Sigma and
Tamron. They are underrated. I don't have the 21mm limited, but love the other
Pentax limited lenses.

Depends on where you are going and possible subjects but my most basic
kit is the K-5 and a Sigma 18-125mm zoom. This offers a good range of
focal lengths.
Second choice woud be the K-5 and the Tamron 17-50mm zoom more compact
and larger f2.8 max aperture. Slightly better at wider focal leng
