On my way to Nihongo Salon one Monday morning, I snapped this shop from the Hankyu Department Store (Kippy Mall) adjacent JR Sanda Station. Most of this development is quite new. Where Hankyu is now was for many years just an empty site, and the criss-cross of bridges followed the general upgrade of the entire precinct. I think we always hoped that the Hankyu railway would somehow find a way of extending itself from Takarasuka, or even perhaps organising a buy out of the Kobe Shintestsu. The latter's Sanda terminus is to the right, obscured by the pedestrian bridge. In the background is JR Sanda. The two stations sit side by side.
I simply couldn't count the number of times Nadia and I walked from home to the station to catch a train or go shopping. Even my doctor was located nearby. Hmmm...memories!
