Sounds good to me Deana you have got a good mix of park days and water park days at first glance it looks like you arent giving yourselves a break the water park days are like relaxing days i think so yeah looking good have a fab time !!!!!:thumbs-up

Yes the water park days are the chill out and relax days, as the kids might be able to rush about but us adults need the sit down time !
Thanks for your thoughts.

Looks good. Just a few thoughts:
Busch Gardens - I know we'd be too tired to do this justice on our first full day, we usually go for a 'quieter' park with less to do.
Aquatica - I don't know as haven't been there but I'm guessing it could be very busy at a saturday. Everyone usually says avoid waterparks at the weekend.

Hope you have a great time!

I think Busch Gardens good idea for early morning start on 1st day. We normally wake up mega early on our first day. Then it goes down hill from there.
Although I know everyone is different.
