Hotels dulux...

While travelling to Mombassa by car we passed these signs for hotels. We wondered about the first and thought it was for nature lovers and the second, although 'gracious', we would give it a miss. The Man Eaters Lodge sign post took our fancy and we decided to pay it a visit. It was in a beautiful setting by a river and we were told it received its name when the government built the railway line from Nairobi to Mombassa. At night the lions would come out and have a meal of one of the railway workers. Not a nice thought but they told me it was true and they were sticking to their story for it made for a good one. I would make sure that the door to our room was locked when I turned in for the night - you know - just in case.
