rcdude thanks so much for the advice it will help a lot. I want to spend 2 days at BGW because my family wants to and I'd like to have an extra day just for fun lol.
You're welcome. If your family wants 2 days at BGW, then that's a good reason to do it. While I haven't visited it, if you're ticket includes Water Country and you're a waterpark person at all it may be worth spending some time there on the second day as I hear that is a pretty good one (though it is a little ways from the park, so it may not be worth it).

My advice would be to spend two days at Kings Dominion, two days at Carowinds, and skip Busch Gardens altogether.
I missed this before, but why? I'd consider BGW the least drop worthy of these three parks. If you were going strictly for coasters or were on a tight budget I would understand, but BGW is by far the nicest of the three parks overall (that said, Kings Dominion was my favorite of the three in 2010, but with all the improvement the others have gotten that is likely no longer the case). Personally I'd drop Carowinds if I had to drop one due to location and attraction selection, but all three are quality parks and well worth visiting for a first-timer.
