Tydens ontbyt sal Sandvelders vertel wat in hul omgewing aangaan en wat die geleendhede en uitdagings vir aartappelproduksie in die Sandveld is. Die bus ry na die besoek direk na die lughawe en ons behoort teen 16:00 daar te wees.
The bus leaves early in the morning from Club Mykonos. We will enjoy breakfast in the Sandveld before one or two farms will be visited.

After the farm visit, the bus will leave directly to the airport and should arrive there at 16:00.
