Busch Gardens & Water Country

We bought a dual season pass to both Busch Gardens and Water Country and didn’t go nearly enough but we did go enough times to make it worth buying the season pass rather then a few different day passes! :) We went one last time to each place.

At Busch Gardens we met up with our friends the Christiansen’s

We watched Collin while his parents rode on the big roller coasters and then they did the same for us. Collin is trying to get a goldfish and Kate is hording them!

We discovered that Kate was big enough to go on a few of the kid rides! The Little Gliders were by far her favorite!

We also ran into our friend Olivia and her kids. (Tim knows Olivia’s husband from HS and he graduated from W&M Law School the year before Tim). Ella is their little girl (she’s on the right laying down & the little boy next to her is one of their friends)

Kate also LOVED the Kinder Karussel as you can plainly see by the huge grin on her face!

At Water Country the “Hubba Hubba Highway” was our favorite! According to the website “It’s like a lazy river that’s anything but lazy. Hubba Hubba Highway’s fast-moving current speeds you along. We all put on life jackets and let it carry us around! It was so fun a relaxing!

This time that we went we met up with Olivia and her Kids. Here’s a picture of Kate & Ryan

Here’s a good close-up of Kate’s poor nose. She fell off our front porch right onto her nose :(

Water Country was way fun and had a bunch of kid-friendly attractions! Kate liked it a lot last spring but I think she’d love it now! Too bad it’s so far away :(

HOW FUN! I've always wanted to go to Busch Gardens! That's so nice that you guys had friends to go with so you could switch off for the rides. The Hubba Hubba Highway sounds like a blast! What fun adventures you guys have :)
