Dwarf and I are looking to do a "live" report from a waterhole next month (Someone has to do it.)
We can discuss a bit then vote on where I should go!
Some ideas here: viewtopic.php?f=263&t=8369
Cellphone reception is obviously an issue, though!
stf did some very professional research on their last trip, but not much in the south.
Anybody know what cell reception is like there?

The trip I took my inlaws on. We entered Melalane heading up to Skukuza.
We stopped at Renosterpan and the MIL's cell phone proceeded to ring, and she started yapping.
When she finally got off the phone, I told her in no uncertain terms would that be happening again and she had to switch it off
