I have a few question if you don't mind LOL!
I don't mind at all!!!!
How did you get to SW. We are staying at Fairfield, there is a shuttle, but I heard it was best to drive your own car. I was wondering if parking fee is cheaper if you just go in the evening, or if you do half a day at A and half at SW, do you just pay one fee?
We took the shuttle in for our full day there and 1 of our evenings and then drove in the other day. The shuttle is on time and had good day hours, but in the evening our shuttle only had two evening pick up times(6:30 and 8:10 and the park closed at 7). It was chilly the days we were there so we didn't want to have to wait for the 8:10 shuttle so we made sure we were out at the shuttle by 6:20).
We did drive to Aquatica and paid $12 for parking and were able to use that parking pass to park at SW for free on the same day. Parking at SW is usually $15.
The parking fee at SW is not cheaper if you only go in the evening.
Also, my son is 11, how did your 10yr old like LEGOLAND? Did you drive down, or stay near LEGOLAND?
My 10 year old loved Legoland and he usually loves all the big thrill rides at other parks so I was afraid he would be bored. We went on everything(some of the rides 2 and 3 times) and were able to see everything we wanted to see during our day. we arrived at 9:30 and stayed until about 5:30. It was a great day!
We had a rental car so we drove to Legoland. It only took us about 45 minutes from SW to get there.
Any tips, we have never been to SW, A, DC or LEGOLAND. Currently we are planning on going to SW, A and BG, but may add DC and/or LEGOLAND, can't decide yet
This was our first time at all the parks too!! Honestly my kids probably would say they liked Legoland the best, than DC, than SW than Aquatica. It was on the chillier side for our trip so they were cold when they were out of the water at A so that may have led to them not liking it as well. My 8 year old was not tall enough to ride Manta or Kraken so he was disappointed about that. Overall, I think 1 1/2 days was plenty at SW. However, keep in mind that we didn't have to wait in ANY lines. That was awesome!! We have a BG closer to home so that is why we opted not to do that.
Any advice on where to eat? tia
