It was raining the whole day but the rain was soft and sparse so I wasn't in the mood to stay home all the time. At some point in the early afternoon, bored by more or less everything the Internet offers, I sat in my car and drove to the nearest city to buy one thing that same car needed to look better on the annual roadworthiness test.

The car I have is pretty old, I bought it in 2008. Due to the aging of the material, the steering wheel's surface looks dirty even when I clean the thing thoroughly, so I decided to put a brand-new cover on it.
I went searching for that cover in a place called Bauhaus - the biggest home improvement store in Pula.
In that store on the outskirts of the city, one can find a wide variety of tools, things, and machines that can be used to build or improve stuff in and around a house. The store has a few shelves dedicated to cars as well.
In the opening photograph, you can see the main entrance.

The parking lot behind the store was wet and the sky above us was covered with a layer of pale gray clouds. It wasn't a great day but it wasn't too bad either.

Here you can see a friend who was there with me exploring one of the colorful shelves.

The shelves in Bauhaus are much higher than those in other stores in Pula. The type of steering wheel cover I needed was on the top of the shelf so one of the employees had to use an interesting indoor vehicle to get it. This shot shows only the upper part of the machine with the Bauhaus employee on the top. His hands were busy searching for the right thing in a pile of different covers.

Here you can see the lower part of the machine.

I used two consecutive shots to clumsily assemble this picture that shows the warehouse lift in all its glory.

It took me a few minutes to mount the cover on the steering wheel outside in the parking lot.

It's a good cover, it feels good in the hands.

The floor tiles displayed in the parking lot look like some sort of modern art.

This severed head equipped with a Ledlenser headlamp also looked like something out of an art exhibition.

Here you can see the well-illuminated shelves that showcase various lamps.
AND THAT'S IT. AS ALWAYS HERE ON HIVE, THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE MY WORK.
