Univ of Sakarya, Mayors of Adapazari

Today I bade farewell to Bahadir and his mom Mekeddes, and our group was driven west from Ankara to Adapazari, where we were handed off along the side of the road to our new host families. For the next few days I will be staying with Taylan Onucak and his family. Taylan is the manager of the Ant Group (http://www.antgroup.com.tr/). Our host families and other local Adapazari Rotarians gave us a tour of the University of Sakarya, including the computer science, music, and theater departments.
After that we visited the mayor of the city of Adapazari, then the mayor of the province of Adapazari. It was an opportunity for the local Rotarians to voice opinions on their various issues and for the mayors, it was another photo op.
