Ah, Odessa...
In June we had a family vacation in Odessa. Repair work is underway on the Kyiv-Odessa highway in 3-4 places, from 2 to 15 km, the road is constantly narrowing, traffic is slowing down.
On the site, we booked two apartments, where we lived for 3 days. We lived in the area of Lanzheron and Arcadia, closer to the sea) Before the trip, I read information that the water in Odessa is green, it is impossible and dangerous to swim. Indeed, there was a lot of algae on the beach of Ibiza and near the Rotunda. On Otrada and near the Yellow Stone - clean clear water!
On Deribasovskaya and near the Opera House it was very crowded, because Odessa schoolchildren were graduating. ) Graduates and their mothers in chic dresses drove around in groups all evening, singing in convertibles and having fun as best they could)

From June 21 to June 26, the weather pleased us, the sea is warm, people are cheerful and resourceful!!
We have Latvian license plates on our car. 15 minutes before departure, when everyone returned to the apartment, the rooms were removed and a note was left offering 100% quick return. We dropped 500 hryvnias to the thieves' phones and became participants in the "Find the numbers! " The scammers on the phone said in which direction to move on the slopes, how many steps and turns from a tree, pit, etc. We found some numbers in a fire pit, others, wrapped in a bag, under the branches at a decent distance from the first ones. All commands sounded quickly and specifically, it became clear that the theft of numbers on Chernomorskaya Street was not the first time.
When they booked an apartment through the website, another "owner" from VERA INBER street offered, in addition to an advance payment for 1 day, to drop a deposit for 3 days on his phone. Fun, right?
In Odessa, you can rest, but carefully! )
