　　This hotel in the trees is famous in the world．People who know very little about Kenya, know of Treetops．When King George VI died, Princess Elizabeth was staying on the Treetops, and when she came down from there, “She succeeded in as the queen of the country”．This hotel in the middle of the forest shows the pleasure of Africa．When you visit it, you will be sent into the heart of the forest by hotel buses, and then a guide, with a gun to protect you against big game, will go with you to the Treetops．Before and after dinner, for the whole night if you wish, you can sit on the corridor, watching animals come to the water pool．The earliest hotel Treetops was built round a large tree on the opposite side of the water, but that was destroyed by fire and the new hotel Treetops, which is built round several trees, is much bigger．

　　The dining room at Treetops is small, and the waiters cannot walk round to serve guests, a clever “railway service” has been invented．Guests take their food as it passes slowly in front of them, along a line in the center of the table．

　　－Animals and their babies are waiting to greet the guests．

　�。瑼nimals, enjoying the Treetops pool in the daylight．

　�。瑼 long bodied, long ring tailed very active cat-like animal is a special one coming out at night．He hunts and eats anything he can overpower and is very destructive．He lives in the trees at Treetops．He comes for his food every evening．Do not get too near to him, as his teeth and claws can do you harm．These animals can be trained and become lovely pets．

　�。璖ome other animals who have a thick coating of fur to keep them warm in the cold forest nights．

　　－Many buffaloes coming to the Treetops for water and salt during the day or night．
