Fun!

Very fun, I only wish it was longer! The voice was great and easy to understand. The directional arrow was a little difficult to see (bright green color on color) on a phone on a bright summer day, but other than that it was great!

I sat and watched the softball games for a bit, as the tour recommended and it was a great activity!
