An old sign - probably from the 1960s. All colours except yellow have gone. The message is "Protect children from road accidents". Hand-written lettering, I believe.

An apartment, which seemed to have been deserted. I don't know if I see these next time.

ぼけ (in kanji 木瓜; in English, Japanese quince). Read "bo-keh". It has no connections with another word ぼけ (bokeh) used in photography. The fruit looks like 瓜 (u-ri) so the tree was called 木瓜 (boku kuwa). It lated changed into "mok-ke", then "bo-ke".
Too windy to take pictures, and this one is a bit blurred. View large if you like.
