Dear Michael,
Cameron and I wanted to say an enormous thank you for your incredible hospitality and generosity during our stay at Borana with Crispin and Juju. We had the most amazing time.
The lodge is simply out of this world, and we were treated like kings. Our evening game drive with Alex was wonderful, and sundowners and canapes on the hillside proved a sensational start to our stay at Borana. Our accommodation was incredibly luxurious, with breathtaking views over the dam where we saw elephant every morning. We loved the small touches – finding the fire roaring when we returned from safari in the early evening, and snuggling up with our hot water bottles every night.
Our meals were truly delicious, and particular mention must go to the awesome pizza oven, which provided us with great alfresco entertainment and the most wonderful homemade pizza! The highlight of our trip was the horseback safari. We saw such a vast array of game, with giraffe, zebra, impala and elephant exhibiting an unconcerned acceptance of our close presence – what an experience! We also saw a striped hyena with her two cubs. Your horses are beautiful – they are so well cared for and behaved impeccably. We enjoyed a truly liberating gallop on Fin and Glenda across Borana, and had an idyllic bush breakfast during the morning ride with fresh fruit, sizzling bacon, toast and homemade preserves, overlooking the incredible African landscape. We really could not have asked for more.
Please thank all of your team at Borana, particularly Sam and Flick who made us feel so welcome. They were wonderful hosts, and we wish them all the very best with their season at Borana.
We were blown away at Borana, and with everything Kenya has to offer. We cannot wait to return, and will certainly be spreading the word about your sensational lodge back in the UK.
Hoping to catch up with you again next time we visit your incredible country - with any luck it will be in the not too distant future!
Wishing you all the very best for 2010,
Cameron and Faye Kennedy
BORANA
