Autumn Odessa (Photo report)

November 20, 2014, 21:30 4485 Author: Olesya Kulakova, Veronika Vasilyeva, translated by Daria Sukach www.deti.zp.ua On October 23rd-27th children together with Klubok touristic club travelled to Odessa for the first time

Millions of thanks to the Happy Child charity foundation for wonderful days spent in Odessa!

Although Odessa welcomed us with cold rain, our first day was full of fun. As soon as we settled in the hostel and enjoyed some lunch, we went to explore a rainy but beautiful Odessa.

The rainfall and strong wind made our first walk around the city short. However, the second day presented us a sunny sky, so we saw many amazing places. We visited a seaport, climbed up along the Potemkin stairs, enjoyed the archeological museum as well as the museum of waxworks. We also saw a great number of various monuments…

The third day in Odessa was sunny and slightly warmer. We again enjoyed an awesome walk around the city. We couldn’t, alas, enjoy the whole day there since the train home was waiting for us.

We surely could not see the whole beauty of Odessa within three days but we at least could touch it a bit.

We definitely had the time of our life during our trip to Odessa

We’re thankful to the Klubok touristic club, Albert Pavlov and Olesya for this trip.
