The day runs inside a hypermarket. Life goes up and down the stairs and a watch beats the passing of time. It is the life that belongs to us.
This roundabout located on Gran Vía de Hortaleza has a fountain that lights up at night. It is known as Sandro Pertini Glorieta, named after the seventh president of Italy, from 1978 to 1985.
Here we have seen people bathe to celebrate when the Spanish soccer team won the World Cup in South Africa in 2010. It was a hot summer, and many people gave free rein to their excitement and joy by bathing in the fountain.
Anecdotes aside, next to this roundabout stands the Gran Vía de Hortaleza Shopping Center, with a Carrefour hypermarket and many shops and restaurants. It is one of the shopping centers that the district has and where many people gather to do the shopping, to have a coffee, a menu or drinks trying to avoid the intense heat in the street.
It is five minutes away from my parents´ home, from where I took this picture in a hot summer night.

Fuente y Glorieta de Sandro Pertini, Hortaleza, Madrid, España
Esta rotonda situada en la Gran Vía de Hortaleza tiene una bonita fuente que se ilumina por la noche. Se la conoce como la Glorieta Sandro Pertini, en honor al séptimo presidente de Italia desde 1978 a 1985.
Aquí hemos visto a gente bañarse para celebrar cuando la selección española de fútbol ganó el Mundial de Sudáfrica en 2010. Era un verano caluroso y mucha gente dio rienda suelta a su emoción y alegría bañándose en la fuente.
Anécdotas aparte, junto a esta rotonda se encuentra el Centro Comercial Gran Vía de Hortaleza, con un hipermercado Carrefour y multitud de tiendas y restaurantes. Es uno de los centros comerciales que tiene el distrito y donde se reúne mucha gente para hacer las compras, tomar un café, un menú o bebidas tratando de evitar el intenso calor de la calle durante el verano.
Está a cinco minutos de la casa de mis padres, desde donde tomé esta foto en una calurosa noche de verano.

Naming a hypermarket car park alley after a poet, and not just any poet, is the only original feature of this utterly banal space. The other aisles have stupid names, like Madame Jalouse or Monsieur Têtu. What poetic idea possessed the decision-maker to name this driveway after Monsieur Rimbaud?

Donner le nom d'un poète, et pas n'importe lequel, à l'allée d'un parking d'hypermarché est la seule originalité de cet espace on ne peut plus banal. Les autres allées ont des noms stupides, comme Madame Jalousie ou Monsieur Têtu. Quelle mouche poétique a piqué le décideur pour nommer cette allée du nom de Monsieur Rimbaud ?

Deux murs publicitaires pour... le même magasin car Auchan a racheté le Minifix en 1979. La pub de droite a peut-être été masquée sous de la peinture blanche qui disparait peu à peu.
Two ads... for the same hypermarket because Auchan bought the Minifix in 1979.

It was announced in July 2008 that both McDonald's and KFC are opening a restaurant (both featuring a Drive-Thru facility) in 2009 at the exit of the new Southern ring road of Zaandam. Like most of these projects there was a delay but McDonald's opened its doors in August 2010. When visiting this store (October 2010) KFC was still closed and about to open.
Behind the both restaurants there will be a parking lot and probably another brico-hypermarket. This area is still under reconstruction.
Strange enough this brand new store has no EasyOrder and/or McCafé.

Red Square (Russian: Кра́сная пло́щадь, Krásnaya plóshchad’) is the most famous city square in Moscow, and arguably one of the most famous in the world. The square separates the Kremlin, the former royal citadel and currently the official residence of the President of Russia, from a historic merchant quarter known as Kitay-gorod. As major streets of Moscow radiate from here in all directions, being promoted to major highways outside the city, the Red Square is often considered the central square of Moscow and of all Russia.
Directly opposite the Mausoleum, on the eastern side of the square, lies the building which houses Russia's most famous shopping mall - the State Department Store, GUM. Since the fall of communism, several other shopping centers and hypermarkets have sprung up to rival it in prestige, but GUM retains its status as a consumer Mecca for visitors to Moscow.
Main Department Store or GUM (ГУМ, pronounced as goom, in full Главный Универсальный Магазин, Glavnyi Universalnyi Magazin) is a common name for the main department store in many cities of the Soviet Union and some post-Soviet states. The most famous GUM is a large store in Kitai-gorod of Moscow, facing Red Square. During Christmas time the whole GUM building is lit with thousands of lights and I was lucky to capture it with such a beautifufl sunset.
