Instead, Anita had hoarded a Lindt dark chocolate bar acquired at London Drugs before her departure. It was divine. She was better, but not well. A slow day was in order.
We had not yet explored the pool, so today was an ideal time to try. It's a fair size -- maybe 20 meters long, 8 meters wide and a consistent 1.2 meters deep. The temperature was perfect, and most other guests let us have it to ourselves. Bliss. I got hungry so we ordered potato wedges and a watermelon citrus drink. Even more bliss.
Dinner began at 6:30, and it was a special buffet for Christmas. Many of you know that we wax rhapsodic about the Christmas Brunch at the Fairmont Norfolk in Nairobi. It was an incredible event with fabulous food, amazing surroundings and sweet music. I highly recommend it.
Well dinner at the Mulu Marriott didn't disappoint. There was traditional Asian foods, traditional turkey, roast beef, trimmings, salads, and a barbecue! The chef learned of our food limitations, and brought me a plate of stir fried vegetables and Anita some gluten free pasta with a marinara sauce. It was perfect. Anita had a chocolate mousse as her amuse bouche; I found some veggie sticks. Neither of us had room for the beautiful desserts.
Christmas was a quiet day, and we really enjoyed it.
