Last Home of Lord Baden Powell

Lord BP lived his last 3 years of his life at Nyeri, Kenya. His humble one room home has now been converted into a museum and the adjoining part converted into Hotel Outspan.

As I mentioned in one of my earlier blogs I did get a chance to visit the place and these are the pictures I managed to capture there.
