We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the residents of Orhaniye for their support and enthusiasm towards this website.

Special thanks must go to Bahri Sen and his wife Meltem.  Bahri was invaluable in organising appointments and translating our less-than-perfect Turkish! Bahri’s smiling face was always there and keen to help with any request we had and his local knowledge of both the surrounding area and the people we needed to see was incredible.  A true local.  Thanks again to Meltam for allowing us to take so much of her husband's time!

Thank you to Rafet Alper for providing assistance with any request we had at any time.  Rafet’s ability to judge when we were hungry was uncanny… amazing food just arrived!

Thanks to Sertan, Tayfun and all the staff from the Dogan Motel for allowing us to use their internet access and providing us with food and drinks when we were there.  Without their help, this would have been a much more difficult (and slow) project.

To Dogan, Mama and the staff at the Palmiye Hotel, Mustafa and family at the Ersoy,  we thank for their enthusiastic help and also providing refreshments on those hot Turkish days! To everybody involved in making this site a reality, thanks.  Your willingness to help at any time was greatly appreciated. We could not have done it without you!

What a place!
