Well, first of all, we were a bit disappointed to see the prices of the tickets. We thought it would be a little cheaper. When we arrived (around 10am) the lines to get admission were very very long. It was a Sunday. My boyfriend, 3 yr. old daughter and friends of ours waited on the line for a while. Then our friend realized he locked his keys in his car. We went back to the car to help him. We had to wait for the Parking lot security to help get someone there to unlock the door. By the time we actually got into the park, it was just past noon. The security in the parking lot were very helpful and nice. 
We explored some of the exhibits with no lines! Big plus! 
Some of the better ones were the shark encounter, and penguin encounter. We saw the Clyde and Seamore show which everyone loved, but I wasn't too crazy about. The stadium was packed though and most people looked like they enjoyed it. We were able to get seats at the very last minute.
Then we ate lunch (around 2pm) at a brick oven pizza place in the park. It was very expensive, but very good. Even though it was 2pm, the place was quite a bit crowded and there was a wait for the food. After lunch, my boyfriend, and friends went on the roller coaster, Kraken. There was absoloutely no wait, and it was 3 in the afternoon. I didn't go on. I don't like rollercoasters and I had to stay with my daughter. They enjoyed the ride very much. We saw a couple more exhibits, then browsed some shops. At 6pm, the park started to empty and we were very exhausted. My boyfriend, and friends went on Journey to Atlantis and loved it (There were some unexpected drops) and Kraken one more time with no waits again plus they got to sit in the very front row. We drove to Seaworld (we live 3 hrs. away) and although I really wanted to see the Shamu show, we never did because we decided to start heading home. The park was closing at around 8pm and we got to do almost everything we wanted with no waits whatsoever. The good part about the expensive tickets was that since we are florida residents, we get to come back all year with the admission ticket we bought for that one day. Now it doesn't seem so expensive. If you have any questions, please ask.

Seaworld, too. 
The biggest problem with all the shows is that they are scheduled in such a way that it is difficult to see them all in one day.... at least we thought so. 
most of whom are rescue animals. It's delightful and so impressive!
