«My husband's colleague went with his family, they are going again this year»
«My husband booked a vacation in Anapa starting in mid-August. Help me talk him out of it, he doesn't understand any arguments or facts. He says his colleague went there with his family last year, and they are going again this year and instigated mine to vacation together as families. He says the beaches have been cleaned, there's no oil, drones and sirens are present, but "what's the big deal about that?"» — wrote a woman from Mozyr, adding that the youngest child could be left with grandmothers at home.

For their summer vacation, the family has 6500 rubles, but doesn't understand in which direction to go with such a budget.
A heated discussion erupted in the comments.
«One must be simply insane to go to that zone for a vacation now…» — reads the most liked comment.
«And I'm surprised that parents voluntarily sent their children, I think — "no, it can't be." But yes, it can. Here's a living example» — wrote another woman.
«How far people are from reality after all… I'm scared for you. He isn't bothered by the fuel collapse in Russia, nor military actions, nor drone attacks… A prime example of a ***» — they comment.
Another woman noted that this money would be enough for two people to fly to Turkey for 10 days on an «all-inclusive» package. «Doesn't her husband have enough adrenaline? Let him skydive with the change from Turkey» — added another commentator.

People also advised replacing the Black Sea with a vacation in Braslav.
«The Krasnodar Krai of Russia is constantly being shelled. You don't know where it will land next time.
How can one go there? It's better to look for something in the Braslav Lakes region instead. We vacationed there with children several times — simply wonderful places. Yes, the weather might not be lucky, but you can still have a great time».
One user, surprised by the number of people willing to go on such a risky vacation, advised the authorities to warn people that if something happens, they will have to solve problems at their own expense.
«There are many countries with a sea, but they are drawn to a sea polluted with oil and under rocket and drone fire» — she adds.

Advised to send the husband alone
Many joked that the woman's husband is a candidate for the Darwin Award and advised her to send him to Anapa alone.
«Isn't the situation with children enough? It seems to me that one's own life is more precious than a vacation. If he wants to go so badly, let him go alone» — wrote a user.
«Well then, let him go alone! The children should at least have their mother left» — added another.
«Well then, send him alone if his butt is burning. If you have a head on your shoulders, then stay home» — advises another.
Mass refusals began
Meanwhile, quite a few people commented that they had already refused to vacation in Russia.
«My family and I also refused. We will go to Braslav» — wrote a man.
The worsening situation affected the refusal of vacations not only within Russia itself.

«Our son was supposed to go to Georgia for a vacation via Krasnodar. We refused. God protects those who protect themselves» — wrote a user.
«Today I canceled a bus tour to Georgia. Tour companies themselves are afraid to go» — adds a man.
«We were initially supposed to go to Abkhazia by car — we refused, then booked flights to Sochi for June 27, but ultimately canceled everything. Due to this whole situation, we won't be going anywhere».
«We had a tour booked to Kabardinka departing on July 3 (4 people). We canceled the trip!»
War doesn't stop everyone
However, there are also those who still don't know that vacationing in Russia and even traveling through the territory of the Russian Federation is a dangerous idea.
For example, a woman who has tickets to Gelendzhik for August 29 hopes that everything will resolve itself by then.
«We are supposed to leave for Gelendzhik on July 8. I don't know what to do, I simply don't understand» — adds another.
As for the author of the post, a couple of hours later she commented that they decided not to go to Russia.
