A street in Tokyo, 15 September 2007 - three days after Mr Shinzo Abe of the LDP (Jimin To) said he would step down.
This is a rubbish collection point. Two cardboard boxes and one LDP poster board.
a tokyo photolog (my flickr archive, and occasional rant and rave: I have a free flickr acount, and want to keep the pics I have uploaded.)

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.
Now that the Valentine's Day is over, local food stores are going ひな祭り (hi-na-matsuri) pink fest of capitalism and consumerism - well, it's not "pink" to be precise, it's "the colour of the peach blossoms (桃色)". So please don't 早合点 like "Pink for girls! it's a crazy sexism." (^^) The peach blossoms are seasonal thing as well as an ancient icon rooted in the ancient China.
A macro of a hand-painted signboard. Looks like 30 or 40 years old.
Thanks, Hello Kitty, for your kindest advice...
