I just wanted to let everyone who is going on ROAR II and staying at Birkenhead House, the Mateya Safari Lodge and the Ivory Lodge know they are in for quite a wonderful experience.

Mona and I couldn't go on ROAR II because of the presidential campaign so Ngaire was nice enough to invite us along on a smaller trip she just made.

Those three hotels are probably the best hotels in which we have ever stayed. I was so impressed by Mateya and the woman behind it that I wrote a story about it. You can read it here if you'd like.

I'd be happy to answer any questions. Thanks. Tom.
