We were greeted at the visitor center by Jax and taken around the cities. Jax was amazing as she knew all the local knowledge of the area. She gave us loads of time to ask questions, and we even got to get out at a few spots to take photos and walk through the Capitol Building. So cool, as it gave us info on Austin and helped us orientate ourselves.
