If we keep telling everyone to go up north, the south will be nice and quiet. :twisted:

it is starting to resemble the skukuza shop/restaurant area at lunch time during peak season...
It was packed when I was there in July. We actually went there for lunch, but when we couldn't find seats we ducked. The majority of the people sitting weren't even eating O/

Spoke to groovy today, he says it's not really acceptable...all guests should use the facility for what it is intended. In leachy's case the osvs were all from one operator.

But this is why the osv lobby is requesting its own area in Skukuza, or nearby...where brunch/lunch picnics will take place.

Skuks shop area is a nightmare now, almost any time of day, during holidays, and osv's are a big part of that.

it seems that people have to keep in mind is a park, with wild animals
and that is realy a great chance for you all... and me too

and not a place for "surpise party", car showing/racing, BIG market/money etc... :evil:

Why can't they use the day visitors area? Or are they too posh for that? :-?

They do use all the picnic spots, and Skuks, and the day visitors at Skuks, etc., Flutts! \O

Only this one company uses the Golf Course so far, well, in this instance! :-0

From the "Kruger National Park" page on Facebook:

"SANPARKS YOU NEED TO UP YOUR GAME.....
what is going on in Kruger is disgraceful and disgusting. Speeding cars killing innocent animals, people out of their cars and throwing stones at Leopards and now the public has to clean up all the litter. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE !!"
