Attendance is MANDATORY. In the 1950s the politburo liked to go there. It is on the Black Sea, and near to Sochi. Moscow is only a short hop flight to Gagra, it's 7 hours. Outside toilets. You go for the Khash, but you'll stay for the Khash. Jul-06-22    perfidious: You no play, off to gulag or, if you give really hard time, Lubyanka.
