Our Neighborhood

This is a picture of the narrowing of the street by our house. We all take this road almost daily to go to the main street and to go to the Naval Base. They have actually widened it so you could almost get 2 cars by one another but most of the time you weave in and out and wait for someone to pass.
This is a narrow street to get to houses. If you run into another car you just backup and find a place where you can get by one another. The Kanji on the road may say stop ahead but I am not sure.
