The Museum takes visitors `Out of Africa,' into historic home of Danish author who was focus of 1985 movie. You may as well know it before you go: Denys Finch-Hatton was no Robert Redford. That's the main disappointment voiced by visitors to the sprawling stone farmhouse, now in a Nairobi suburb, where Danish author Karen Blixen lived from 1914 to 1931 and where she welcomed her lover, Finch-Hatton. "But who is?" countered our guide, Anne Mieke Raassen, in a lilt reminiscent of Meryl Streep, Redford's co-star in the awardwinning "Out of Africa." Since the 1985 Oscar sweep, crowds have doubled at the Blixen manor, now restored as a national museum

5 (iv). MPATA SAFARI CLUB Established in 1992, Mpata Safari Club is designed by the Japanese architect Edward Suzuki. Commanding a majestic panorama of Masai Mara, the Savannah of the maasai people, the lodge is astride a plateau gently sloping down towards a rugged, well-defined escarpment. 23 cottages are spread on both sides of the centrally placed common club-house parallel to the escarpment. The club-house fuses two basically semi-circular, fan-shaped components. Beneath this are various functions which are terraced relative to the sloping terrain. In the centre is an open patio which serves as the focal generator of the plan as well as a ventilator and shaft for natural daylight. The structure has been kept open to allow natural cross ventilation, but where there are strong winds, as occurs along the peripheral edges of the dining and bar areas, glass windbreakers have been installed.
