The girls met on metro station Tchkalovskaya. Mila was astonished, that Alena was seeing off by a new boy-friend. He felt himself uneasy because his girl-friend was walking in the metro without shoes and, to say more, was posing to a photo camera. The girls didn?t take the risk of making video in the metro as they were afraid to be taken not to Feodosia, but to prison? ;) So Alena?s boyfriend just stood in the girl?s way and confused them as he was indignant with their photo session. It was a dull and cold day in Moscow. Several days before the trip Mila took a cold. So she was taking medicine and tried not to leave home to get ready for the voyage. Alena became frozen on the cool wind while the girls were waiting for the train at the railway station as well. At the station our girls? soles soon became black with dirt, and they had to beware of sharp glass, that was scattered on the dark platform all around. The conductor didn?t even noticed our girls? bare feet and only once asked Alena, whether it was cold to walk without shoes on the cool stop at night. There was customs between Russia and the Ukraine.

In the morning it became extremely cold in the train. So Mila and Alena had to put on warm woolen socks. When the sun rose, it became warmer. The girls? compartment neighbors were pleasant militiaman with his wife. They looked with interest at our barefoot girls when they left the train on the stops and stations and took video and photo of each other. But they never asked the girls, why were they doing this, though they talked with the girls with pleasure and tasted them with wine and sausage. In one small Ukraine town, where we left the train, a salesman asked, looking at Mila and Alena with wide-eyed astonishment, why were they walking without shoes on the dirty station?! Alena got acquainted there with a boy from a neighbor compartment, who was extremely interested with the girls? bare feet, but was very shy to have his picture taken with Mila or Alena. The salesmen on the stations looked at the girls? bare feet, forgetting about their goods. One of them came closer to Mila and Alena to see our soles in details and was astonished, how the girls could travel in such way. Alena and Mila got to Feodosia quite quickly. In Feodosia the girls were met by their relatives. And at home there was ready a tasty dinner for them and flowers in each room! After dinner the girls went to the sea to touch the water. The sea turned out to be very warm and, what was a surprise ? there were a lot of people on the quay, though it was October! Each girl had her own room and they went to bed because they were extremely tired after the trip..

Mila?s grandma awoke the girls at 9 a.m. They changed the money and went to the railway station to buy tickets back. There was a short queue to the ticket window. The floor was quite cool and the people in the queue got interested in the girls? bare feet, especially one man, why endlessly asked Alena and Mila about the photos ? where would they be posted and for whom. He also asked to photo him with the girls. At least he made a photo of Alena and Mila together ? that was the only photo, where the girls were together. After the girls bought their tickets, they went to the beach and their feet became warm because of the hot asphalt in the city. It was very difficult for girls to walk barefoot on the stones as they were not used to such surfaces. Alena swam that day twice and Mila didn?t even touch the water because of her sore throat. Then Alena asked Mila to cover her with pebble and to jump on her back a little. What a pity that they didn?t manage to make a video with this scene ? as there were nobody, the girls could ask to help them in taking video. The sun was so hot, that the girls soon hurried up back. On the queue the girls noticed a store with carnival medieval costumes. Alena and Mila chose the most beautiful dresses. The store photographer was astonished, when the girls decided to stay barefoot in these dresses and pumped then our girls about their barefoot lifestyle.
...After the photo session in the medieval costumes the girls went sight seeing. And one of the little and picturesque street they found a pretty pub with Mexican cuisine. First our girls were the only visitors of this pub and the barman and young waiters entertained them with pleasure ? and even asked the girls to photo them together. When we left the bar, the barmen spooned with his girl-friend. Maybe he told her something about our girls, because they both looked at bare feet of Alena and Mila in astonishment as if it was something strange for them to see barefoot girls in this season. The girls returned home late in the evening and asked the grandma to awake them early next day because they planned to go through the mountains to a remote village with cozy bays, crystal water and mountains.

In the village the first inhabitants, that met our girls, were pretty little puppets. Alena and Mila couldn?t help playing with them, of course! The way to a beautiful bay was quite long ? along three bays and mountains. That was the most severe experience for the girls? feet! Sharp little pebble clang into their soles. The most difficult thing was to take everything to video ? because it was necessary to walk When the girls reached the peak of the mountain, Mila tried to show Alena a trick ? she stepped at the edge of the platform? and fell down! I even didn?t understood, how the pebble slipped down under her feet. Alena?s reaction was very quick. She threw away the photo camera and dragged Mila out of the landslide. Alena managed to hurt her arm while saving Mila. But at least the girls had a good day and shared their impressions all the rest of the noon.
