Continuing from where we left off two posts ago: After we finished playing with cats and gazing adoringly at Nakaoka Shintarou, we headed up to the lighthouse on the hill that you saw in one of the photos from the last post. On the way to the lighthouse was this temple, which may be one of the 88 from the Shikoku Henro.
前前回の続き、室戸岬の海岸にいる猫と遊び終えて、上に見えた灯台の方に向かって行った。途中でこのお寺が有った。多分遍路の一カ所だと思う。
繼續前前次的話、我們看完了室戶岬海邊之後、就去燈塔看看。在燈塔旁邊也有一個廟、應該它也算是四國遍路的一個。

めっちゃ景色がいい！
Lighthouse!!
很漂亮吧！
因為這座燈塔很舊、所以我認為旁邊的建築是以前員工住的。現在都是自動、可是以前應該有人在燈塔工作。
This lighthouse was originally built in 1899, and electrified in 1917. The sign also mentions that it suffered typhoon damage in 1934 and war damage after that, so the lens was repaired in 1946.
明治時代の灯台なんて凄いなぁ。もしかして隣りに有った低い建物は以前従業員が住んでいた寮なのではないかなと思った。長崎の硫黄島にもけっこう古い灯台が有って、その横に自動化以前の従業員の寮が有った。
這座是1899年建立的。後來因為受到了颱風和戰爭的受傷、等1946年再修理回覆了。還有1917年變電化了。
When we headed back to the car, there was a wild board wandering around nearby! I was actually a little nervous because I thought it looked kind of small, and just about the most dangerous kind of boar you can meet is a baby. Not because of the baby itself, but because of the mom nearby who will kill you if she thinks you're threatening her baby. I stayed a safe distance away and took these photos.
在停車場有一隻山豬！很可愛！但是因為牠很小、我也擔心可能牠是小孩、媽媽也在附近。既然那樣子、很危險。媽媽的山豬為了保護小孩變得很可怕了。
駐車場で猪発見！可愛い！
We then went to this lookout point on a hill. For some reason, the parking lot was
filled with cats and one random dog.
次に、近くに有る展望台に行ってみた。駐車場に着いたら、猫が大勢に歓迎していた。（犬もなぜか一匹居った。）いつもここに来る観光客に餌を貰っているだろう。猫達は何かを期待している様にじろじろ見ていた。
後來去瞭望台。在停車場貓很多！也有一隻狗。看起來觀光客都餵食牠們。
So do busloads of tourists all just stop here and feed the cats? It was really creepy actually, because they were all staring at us, expecting something, so it was like Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds", but with cats.
The view at the lookout point above the creepy cats.
Some abandoned-looking structure. It has this overdone feeling to it that makes me wonder if it isn't another Bubble-era project that went under after the Japanese economy went south. The country's filled with them, as I expect China will be in another couple of decades. Mark my words, the Chinese bubble's good now, but be prepared to get out of there in another 10 years or so. It's not going to last.
以上の建物は廃棄された様に見える。何となくバブル臭いなと思った。
A camera stand so that you can take a mushy, nauseating photo with the person you love and set it as your smartphone background.
為了讓戀人拍自己的照片、有這條相機台。
There was a museum about whaling which we missed the closing time of by about an hour. It's too bad. They apparently have a full whale skeleton on display. We just got to see this harpoon out front.
捕鯨博物館にも行きたかったけど、間に合わなかった。前に立っているこの捕鯨銛しか見れなかった。
有一個捕鯨博物館、可是我們到得太晚、來不及進去。只看這個捕鯨魚叉。
Kochi City at night. Remember, we only got here after another couple hours of driving.
二時間後、高知市に再び着いた。俺のカメラは暗い写真を撮るのが苦手だけど、どうしてもこの写真を撮りたかった。高知市内の路面電車終点駅の一カ所は名前が「ごめん」に成っている。電車に「ごめん」が書いてある風景はなかなか面白い。
高知市。我們住在這裡一宿、再開車到高知縣的西南部。好累！
Time to go to sleep so that we can wake up and drive another couple hours down to Kochi Prefecture's other southern point! Yay... (so tired)
それで、高知市の近くに有った漫画喫茶で仮寝して、翌日またドライブマラソンをし続けた。詳しくはまた今回のポストに！
再下潑見！
