They told me that my earlier proposal of first take guests to their hotels, waiting for them to change at their respective hotels, then proceeding to the Museums venue would 'eat up' our Museums time. There are lots of things to see if we get to the place before its dark..
Could we then agree to meet-up at KICC at 5:30pm then proceed to the Museum?
I am looking for consensus here because we're bottom up folks..

Dear NCUC/SG attending ICANN Nairobi meeting,
This is to re-confirm the NCUC/SG cocktail as follows:
Date: Monday 8 March
Time: 6 pm -10 pm
Venue: National Museums of Kenya http://www.museums.or.ke/
Type: NCUC/SG members, our Civil Society partners (and invited few others)
Dress: informal or traditional (basically "relaxed")
We could not think of a better venue to host Non-Commercial
Users/Stakeholder Group cocktail than the place home to our historical
non-commercial cultural heritage, reflective of our national diversity.
We felt that http://ncdnhc.org/ membership would find the
venue 'homely' thus convinced it will be fun for everyone!
We appreciate the National Museums of Kenya for agreeing to
exclusively open the venue for event. Their souvenir and nearby
"Savannah" coffee shops and "Chui Place" bar will be open late, just
in case, some may wish to have a drink after the cocktail ends at 10
pm:)
Chui place frontage is the Museum's Herbal Garden, "one of the popular
out-door attractions with visitors. The garden has a selection of
plants with medicinal value as used by different communities across
Kenya," reports official museum magazine.
We thank Akiba Uhaki Foundation http://www.akibauhaki.org/ for the funding
support. (Ezra Mbogori, Executive Director, hereby copied)
If you've confirmed, please don't forget your ID (..meeting's protocols...)
Karibuni (Welcome all)
Kindly,
Alex Gakuru
