There was no school Wednesday, so the small band of friends I hang with here decided to go to Kuzuha mall, a shopping center a few stops from Hirakata. It's a pretty big mall, but most of the shops are boring clothing stores. Hidden away on the third floor, however, there are two excellent places: a retro, 70s-80s Americana shop (Yes, irony) and something a bit like a Spencers (Hodgepodge of electronics, merchandise for various franchises and random knickknacks), but Japanese. I got a couple things, including the watch shown above. A pretty fun way to spend a Wednesday.
