Looks nice but a little out of my price range - will go to the 7/11 and buy a lottery ticket - maybe then

I am on the verge of buying the 7D MkII but would like recommendations on the rest of the "kit".
I will add a 2nd battery - assume it should be a Canon or are there other manufacturer ones that are equally good but a but cheaper.
Memory cards have me a bit confused. I think these should probably be 64 GB each but again not sure will 32 GB be OK?
The other question is about transfer speed. Seems the higher the bigger the price but I understand the 7D has a pretty decent size buffer so what speed would be good enough without expending the extra $ for a higher transfer speed.
I have pretty much concluded that I would buy it with the kit lens. I have a 15 - 85 Canon lens and really like it but sometimes would like just that little bit of extra reach. Not sure there are other really good options for a nice walk-about lens that will give the same IQ results.
I have a pretty decent flash so will not need another one. On camera flashes seem to be a last resort for any decent flash photography.
Recommendations for any "must haves" will be welcome.

I have been following the UHH for a while and enjoy learning more about photography
I have been using a Canon T1i and am working up to buying the new Canon 7D Mark II.
I enjoy travel and wildlife photography but I am more of a picture taker than a photographer - still have a lot to learn.
