John James.......Sure enough. So we're good to go with the sound system.

Makes me wonder how all the little creatures in the woods might respond to a late night listening session. Might look out the window and see a few racoons dancing and making requests.

The most beautiful Tree houses I've seen in my life were in Tanzania :
the Tarangire Tree Tops Lodge. One of the most beautiful hotel I ever stayed in.
The Waldorf Astoria could look as a homeless refuge compared to that one... !
Incredible tree houses, in a marvelous national park.
You can see some pics here : tarangire tree tops - Recherche Google

Jérôme.......Fantastic. Looks like it might be a good place to keep the tree house windows closed at night.

You sure have to do so Dan !!
In the evening, when you're ready to go for dinner, you have to wait for guards to escort you to the restaurant because the lodge is in the middle of the Savana.... And of course they take you back to your "tree" after dinner.
What is funny is that they close the stairs after you're home, to prevent animals to come to see you at night !!

Jérôme.......If you are not careful it sounds like you could become dinner on the way to dinner. Still, it looks spectacular.

Jérôme.......I think I'll probably stick with the Marriot or the Embassy Suites. I like being able to eat and drink right at the hotel. No wild animals looking to make a midnight snack out of me.

Dan,

No Marriot or Embassy Suites in Tanzania... !
BTW : do you swim in the sea ? I heard that due to intensive fishing, shark attacks are getting more frequent near the border...
