taking a 3 day trip down there in a couple weeks with the gf and we're trying to plan how we're going to spend it

we know we want Universal Studios one day, a water park another day, and something else the third

Has anyone been to the Seaworld waterpark? I'd like to try something different than wet n wild since i've been there so many times

Please post opinions

we're 28 and 25 in case that helps

I live in Orlando but I have not been to the new aquatica park at seaworld. Wet and Wild is the only water park I have been to. What Universal park do you plan on going to?

The Sea World water park is very new. Everything I have heard about it sounds good and I will probably end up going in the near future. Unfortunately, my response is not helpful to you on this front but I would be interested in hearing your opinion on it if you go.

If you have never seen a Blue Man Group show, consider attending that. It is really fun and I think anybody visiting these forums and in that age range would surely enjoy it. http://www.orlandobrewing.com/ is a local brewery that has some great beers. There is a science museum with IMAX nearby if you are interested in that sort of thing. There is always plenty of shopping in the area. You could make a trip westward to St. Pete for the Dali museum. You could head eastward to the beach or to the Kennedy Space Center. I hope these are helpful. Let me know if you have any questions about the suggestions.

probably looking to see if we can do both Univeral parks in 1 day. Is that even possible?

I've also been seeing varying reviews for Aquatica (sea world), Wet N Wild, Blizzard Beach, or Typhoon Lagoon. Very unsure as of this point which to go to. We are staying right on Int'l Drive and very close to wet n wild so that is taking a slight edge thusfar but am not convinced

Was considering to go to SeaWorld on our third day or maybe Busch Gardens.

Wet and wild is pretty fun, can get pretty crowded (as with all parks) on the weekend.
