Karen Blixen - Isak Dinesen home

The House at Ngong

July 2001 tour of Kenya


My interest in Karen Blixen began with the movie Out of Africa.
(I'm an ardent RR [Robert Redford] fan. One of the women on our 
tour says, "My strongest impression was that I wanted to live in 
the Blixen museum for the remainder of my life"--Pamela W. Coffield.
