Kenic have been very helpful on the shuttle logistics and since I am forwarding them the names of confirmed, I'll make sure that they have the most updated list at their help desks and they should then arrange for a shuttle. The mobile phone number I will be using is +254-772-739100. (GSM and I guess one can buy a SIM card at the venue costs~$1) Guests, just let me know if you get stranded between meetings and the Museum?
