この時期はこの時間になると夕日が天井を照らしてまばゆい季節。チェックインカウンターでは荷物預けスーツケースを受取ってくれてチェックインした。ここでインチョンからセブへのOZ709便の搭乗券も発券してくれた。 At this time of the year, the setting sun shines brightly on the ceiling. At the check-in counter, they picked up my checked suitcase and I checked in. They also issued me my boarding pass for flight OZ709 from Incheon to Cebu. |

今日のOZ113アシアナ便は747ジャンボ、夕方の便は度々遅延するがどこか遠くから着いた便をそのまま関西空港に飛ばすのだろうか?17:14離陸 Today's Asiana flight OZ113 is a 747 Jumbo. Evening flights are often delayed, but I wonder if they just flew it straight to Kansai Airport after arriving from somewhere far away? Takeoff at 17:14 |
|
インチョン空港からはOZ709小さな機体のエアバス320は20:43離陸 OZ709, a small Airbus 320, took off from Incheon Airport at 20:43. |

食事を配りだした客室乗務員、私が写真を撮ろうとすると手で制止、それなら本人の居ない間に撮るだけ。 The flight attendant who served the food stopped me when I tried to take a photo with her hand, so I just took the photo when she wasn't there. |

そして隠れて撮るだけなのに、何を意識してる、私を意識して良い男? And I just taking pictures secretly, so what is he thinking? am I a good looking guy |
今夜もビーフシチュー I choice beef sechw with white wine | |
今日は島伝いのルートは混んでいたのか、それともルソン島は大きな台風が通過中だから避けて太平洋の真ん中を突っ切ったのか、セブまで4時間20分 Maybe the route around the islands was crowded today, or maybe we avoided Luzon because a big typhoon was passing through, so we went across the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It took 4 hours and 20 minutes to get to Cebu. |

セブの町でゆっくり、朝1時からは10時間の滞在にして引き続き一泊にする。午後にレアロズ
I took it easy in Cebu city, staying for 10 hours from 1am and staying overnight.

午前中にトランスアジアフェリーのチケットを買って、夕方6時前に港に行く途中に雨が降り出した。ピア3に向かう。 I bought a ticket for the TransAsia Ferry in the morning, and just before 6pm, it started raining on my way to the port. I headed to Pier 3. |
|
船はトランスアジア10 The ship is TransAsia 10 |
|
週末でなく木曜日なので甲板デッキのベッドも乗客もガラガラ、私のエアコンツーリストクラスもガラガラ状態だった。ゆっくり野菜炒めで夕食。 Since it was Thursday and not a weekend, the deck beds and passengers were all empty, and my air-conditioned tourist class seat was also empty. I had a leisurely stir-fried vegetable dinner. |
|
2015/10/16金Fri
8時間近くベッドでぐっすり寝てしまった。船はカガヤンデオロの町に近づいたので速度を落とし、夜が明けだした。 I slept soundly in bed for nearly eight hours. As the ship approached the city of Cagayan de Oro, it slowed down and dawn began to break. |
|
僅かな時間に見る見ると明るくなる It gets brighter in just a short time |
|
接岸真近か、船客が投げるコインを潜って取りに行く子供達が船を出して待っている、子供だけとは限らないのがこの国。 When the ship is about to dock, children are waiting on the boat, diving to retrieve coins tossed by passengers; this country is not just for children. |
|
港に端に赤いパトロールの船が泊めてあってその横は海にまではみ出したバラック街 A red patrol boat was moored at the edge of the harbor, and beside it was a slum district that spilled out into the sea. |
|
朝5時半着の予定が5時10分でここまできた、この船はやはり早い。同じ時間に出発して9時に着く船とは大違い。 The boat was scheduled to arrive at 5:30 in the morning, but arrived at 5:10. This boat is indeed early. It's quite different from the boat that departs at the same time and arrives at 9:00. |
|
荷物をポーターに頼んだら先日は1個50ペソ、2個で100ペソ払った、それで今回は1個にしたら100ペソ払えって、常に値段交渉することに慣れてない私は戸惑う、なんとか80ペソに値切った。 When I asked the porter to help with my luggage, he said that the other day I paid 50 pesos for one piece and 100 pesos for two pieces, so this time I would have to pay 100 pesos for just one piece.I was confused as I'm not used to constantly negotiating prices, but I managed to get it down to 80 pesos. |
|
タクシーはボラれるし乗り合いのトライシクルなら他の乗客と同じ価格と思って大きなスーツケース、手提げスーツケースと小さなカバンを持って乗り込む。 Taxis are ripped off, so I get on a shared tricycle with a large suitcase, a carry-on suitcase, and a small bag, thinking that the price will be the same as the other passengers. |
|
ミンダナオ島Bukidnonブキドノンに住んでいると言うこの女性、車内で色々と話して写真を撮って良いかと尋ねたら気前良くポーズを取ってくれた。もっと話したかったが家族と一緒、私は遠慮して連絡先も尋ねなかった。 This woman said she lives in Bukidnon, Mindanao. We chatted in the car and when I asked if I could take a photo, she generously posed. I wanted to talk more, but she was with her family, so I refrained from asking for her contact information. |
|
アゴラバスターミナルに着いた、他の乗客は降りて私はP100払ったのにP20しか返してくれない、私は大声を出して「なにっ俺を怒らせるな」と行ってP50の取り戻しに成功、更に荷物代二つ分と私の三人分払えって「何言ってるんだ手で持てる荷物を勝手に勘定に入れるな、勘定に入れたってP24じゃねぇか」と、「現地人ならP16をP30払ったのだから返して当たり前だ」としぶとく文句を言って更にP20取り戻した。 降りたのはミニバンターミナルの反対側、ごろごろと引きずってバスターミナルを通り抜ける。朝6時半ごろだ。 We arrived at Agora Bus Terminal, the other passengers got off and although I had paid P100 they only gave me P20 back, so I yelled out "What? Don't make me mad" and managed to get my P50 back. They then asked me to pay for two bags and for all three of us, saying "What are you talking about? Don't add hand-carry luggage to the account without my permission. Even if you add it to the account it's only P24", and "If you're a local I paid P30 for P16 so of course they should give it back", I complained stubbornly and got another P20 back. I got off at the other side of the minivan terminal and dragged myself through the bus terminal. It was around 6:30 in the morning. |
|
ミニバンの運転手がこの車の後ろに座っていた「バリンゴアンまでP100荷物代は取らない」と言うので「預ける荷物は大きいのと小さいのと合計二つだよ」と言って席に座る。でも満席になるまで長時間待たされたら困るなと思てると、「出発するからP120払え」と運転手とは別の男が運賃を集めに来る。「運転手はP100だと言ったそれ以上は払わん」と強行に言う。隣の女性はP120払ったのにと言ってなにやら現地語で言っていた。 満席にならなくても7時頃には出発してくれてバリンゴアンに着いたのは9時半、「お前は正直な運転手だ」と言ってP10のチップを渡した。 The minivan driver sitting in the back of the car said, "We won't charge a P100 baggage fee until we reach Balingoan," so I replied, "I'll only have two bags, one large and one small," and sat down. But just as I was thinking I'd be in trouble if I had to wait a long time until the van was full, another man came to collect the fare, saying, "We're leaving, so pay P120." I insisted, "The driver said it was P100, but I'm not going to pay any more than that." The woman next to me said something in the local language, saying that she had already paid P120. Even though the van wasn't full, it still departed around 7am, and we arrived in Balingoan at 9:30am. I said, "You're an honest driver," and gave him a P10 tip. |
|
バリンゴアン港を出る10時発のフェリーがあったので切符を購入、P180- There was a ferry leaving Balingoan Port at 10:00, so I bought a ticket for P180. |
|
![]() |
チケットの横にP2の税金と、乗り場建物に入るのにP15払って入る、建物内ではX線検査装置があるのだが壊れているからと荷物を開けて中に手を入れて検査、日本人だと判るとフレンドリーな彼ら。「アリガト」と返事が返ってくる。 There was a P2 tax next to the ticket, and we paid P15 to enter the boarding building. There was an X-ray machine inside the building, but it was broken, so we had to open our luggage and put our hands inside to be inspected. When they realized we were Japanese, they were friendly and replied, "Thank you." |
待合室に座ってトイレに行って、5分と待たずに乗船。 I sat in the waiting room, went to the toilet, and was on board in less than five minutes. |
|
バリンゴアンの出港は予定通り遅れる、スケジュール通りに出ることはまずない。 The departure of the Balingoan is delayed as planned, and it is unlikely that it will depart on schedule. |
|
船は1時間半ほどの航行を終えてベノニ港に到着、入れ替わるように黒い煙を吐いて出て行ったフェリー、バリンゴアンに行くのだろうか? カガヤンデオロに着いた時の事を思い出しポーターに「大きなスーツケースだけ、それも階段を降ろすだけで良いからP10だよ」、OKとやり取りした After about an hour and a half of sailing, the ship arrived at Benoni Port, and then a ferry departed, spewing black smoke. I wondered if it was going to Balingoan? I remembered my arrival in Cagayan de Oro and told the porter, "Just a big suitcase, and you only need to carry it down the stairs, so it'll be P10," and he agreed. |
|
ベノニの港から出てきたマンバハオに行く車はどれだ、ジープニーは暑いしミニバンを探したいなぁ Which car will take me to Mambajao after leaving the port of Benoni? Jeepneys are too hot, so I'd like to find a minivan. |
|
P30でマンバハオに行くミニバンを発見、直ぐに出発した。前の私の黄色いスーツケースが今回の一番大きな荷物、運転が荒いので車が揺れる度に荷物が踊っていて前の赤いおばさんが手で押さえていてくれた。半時間程でマンバハオに到着。快適で早い。 We found a minivan going to Mambajao for P30 and set off immediately. My yellow suitcase in the front was the largest piece of luggage we had, and because the driver was driving roughly, our luggage was flying around every time the car shook, so the lady in red in the front helped me hold it down. We arrived in Mambajao in about half an hour. It was comfortable and fast. |
|
マンバハオからはジープニーに乗り換える、直ぐには出発しないと言うので隣のマーケットに何が食べられるか見に行く From Mambajao, we transfer to a jeepney. Since the bus won't be leaving anytime soon, we head to the market next door to see what we can eat. |
|
葉物野菜もあるが水気や鮮度を保つなどは考えないらしい There are leafy vegetables too, but they don't seem to care about keeping them moist or fresh. |
|
赤いのは小さいトマトだが、肥料を大切にしないので野菜は大きさに関係なく美味しくない。野菜は水と太陽さえあれば育つと思っているのだ。 The red one is a small tomato, but because they don't care about fertilizer, the vegetables don't taste good regardless of their size. They think that vegetables will grow as long as they have water and sun. |
|
根まで切り落として時間が経過すると直ぐに葉が萎えてくると思うのだが・・・。 I think that if you cut it off down to the roots and time passes, the leaves will quickly wilt... |
|
大根のぶつ切りかと思ったら瓜の仲間らしい。キャベツはP60/kgと言っていたのでキャベツを買ったらP25-だった I thought it was chopped radish, but it seems to be a type of melon. I bought cabbage for P25, as it was listed as P60/kg. |

計量だけは関係行政機関がしっかりしていると言う事か、マーケットの中に設置してあった。 この後、ジープニーは出発、サンコンセミタリーの家には昼過ぎには到着、 The weighing machine was installed inside the market, probably because the relevant government agencies were very strict about it. After this, the jeepney departed and arrived at Sancon Semitary's house in the afternoon. |

ラファエルと一緒に朝食、その後は私のバイクでラファエルをラムゾネスフェスティバルが開かれる会場まで送る、皆さんlは予行演習と準備に忙しい。 I had breakfast with Raphael, then I took him on my motorbike to the venue where the Ramzones Festival was being held, while everyone else was busy with rehearsals and preparations. |
スタジアムは完成したばかり、内装も未だの部屋やむき出しの所もある。 The stadium has just been completed, and some rooms and areas are still bare and unfinished. |
|
隣は出店の出るエリア、飲み屋や夜店のような出店が準備に忙しい Next door is an area where food stalls are set up, with bars and night markets busy preparing. |

ベノニからマンバハオに向かう道沿いにある競技場がフェスティバルの会場(この写真は6月) The festival venue is a stadium along the road from Benoni to Mambajao (this photo was taken in June) |
夕方はラファエルの家に行ってインターネットで帰りの飛行機の予約をする20kgの荷物を含めてP1500\3500程、フェリーで来るのと同じか、むしろ安いかも。翌日も翌々日も同じ金額だったので翌々日にした。 In the evening, I went to Rafael's house and booked my return flight online. It cost about P1,500-3,500 including my 20kg luggage, which was the same as coming by ferry, or maybe even cheaper. The price was the same the next day and the day after, so I chose the day after. |

サルのルーパー君、夜は寝てるかと思ったら私が近づいたのを察知して眼を開けている。 I thought Looper the monkey was asleep at night, but he sensed me approaching and opened his eyes. |
|
波の音を聞きながら、ルーパーは右側の紫バスタオルの向こう側にいる。ビールを2本飲んでゆっくりとした時間を過ごす、蚊は全くいない。半そでパジャマで心地良い。 Listening to the sound of the waves, Looper is on the other side of the purple bath towel on the right. I'm relaxing with two beers. There are no mosquitoes around. I'm comfortable in my short-sleeved pajamas. |

朝からラファエルのバイクを修理して、カタルマンの町でキャブレターを分解、その後は彼らはマンバハオのラムゾネスフェスティバル会場に向かった。 私はサンコンセミタリーの家でゆっくりコーヒーを楽しむ、午後になって親父さんがラムゾネスの実を取りに行こうと家の裏山に来た、家から数分だ。 I spent the morning repairing Rafael's bike and disassembling the carburetor in the town of Catarman, after which they headed to the Ramzones Festival site in Mambajao. I enjoyed a leisurely coffee at San Consemitary's house, and in the afternoon my dad came to the mountains behind our house to pick ramzones fruit, just a few minutes' walk from there. |

実ってどこどこ? Where is the fruit? |
![]() |
良く見ると小さな実があちこちに、日本では銀杏と間違うような色の甘い実 If you look closely, you will see small fruits scattered all over the tree. They are sweet fruits of a color that could be mistaken for ginkgo nuts in Japan. |
![]() |
木の葉に隠れるようにたわわになっている。 It grows plump and hides among the leaves. |
これが取ったラムゾネス、フェスティバルの名称にも使われるくらい南国では有名な果物、大粒の葡萄と思えば良い、味は葡萄より薄いが毎日食べていると好きになる。日本では竜眼と呼ばれる? This is Ramzones, a fruit so famous in tropical countries that it is even used as the name of a festival. Think of it as a large grape. The flavor is weaker than grapes, but if you eat it every day you will grow to like it. In Japan it is called Longan. |
|
足で右の耳を掻いていたサルのルーパーには採りたてのラムゾネスを沢山おすそ分け We shared a lot of freshly picked Ramzones with Looper the monkey, who was scratching his right ear with his paw. |
|
Mvi3094.avi 121sec手と足を器用に使って落とさないようにして食べる、食べ物をもったまま渡しに近寄ってくれるルーパー君、後ろの話し声はハーレーン Looper uses his hands and feet skillfully to eat without dropping the food, and approaches me with the food in his hand. I hear Harlane talking behind him. |
|
Mvi3095.avi 49sec良く遊んでくれるのは食べた後の運動?? Is it exercise after eating that they like to play? |

朝5時半に家を出て親父さんにバイクで空港まで送ってもらう20分程。便名がDGとなっているのでドラゴンエアーの機体かと期待していた。 I left home at 5:30 in the morning and my dad drove me to the airport on his motorbike, which took about 20 minutes. The flight number was DG, so I was hoping it was a Dragon Air plane. |
|
便名はドラゴンエアーでも機体はセブパシフィックのATR72 The flight number is Dragon Air, but the aircraft is Cebu Pacific ATR72. |

席番号11Aのシートに座る、隣はドイツ人軍隊上がりのでかい体で56才だが年金で遊び歩いていると、今までタイにいたが友人が逮捕されて出てきた、タイには絶対に戻らないと言っていたが戻ると逮捕されるからか?とは尋ねなかった。尋ねても本当の事を言うはずがない。 フィリピンの携帯電話番号だけ交換して私の宿は言わなかった。Guido3216179579 I sat in seat 11A, and the man sitting next to me was a big, 56-year-old German veteran who was out having fun on his pension. He'd been in Thailand until a friend of his had been arrested and had come back. He said he'd never go back to Thailand, but was it because he'd be arrested if he did? I didn't ask him. Even if I had asked, he wouldn't have told me the truth. We only exchanged cell phone numbers in the Philippines, and he didn't tell me where I was staying. |

夕方7時頃、空港に向かうが道路は混んでいる、狭い道路の端を自転車にリアカーを引いた10才に満たない小学生が走る、渋滞で車が止まるたびに抜かされ、青信号では抜き去る。リアカーには火のついたコンロと重さを量る計量器、荷台に満載の落花生が乗せてあって少年は両手に売上金のP20札を沢山持ちながら幅の広いリアカーを引っ張って車の間を自転車を巧みに操っていた。 私は50年以上前の10才の頃にその頃はやりだした豆炭アンカを同じように自転車に積んで売っていたのを思い出した。 ポケットに使わない小さな額のペソ硬貨があったのでタクシーの窓を開けて「少しだがもらってくれ使わないか」と手渡した。少年は小銭を受取って判らないらしかったがタクシーの運転手が「取っておきな」と言ってくれて判ったようだ。 私は「何を売ってるんだと尋ねたら「ピーナッツ」、幾らだと尋ねたら「P20だ」、私は次に来た時に買うカラナと返事したら「ウォンアトライwant a try」味見するかいと流暢な英語で言って茹でた落花生を一つくれた。 日本で食べなれているカリッとしたピーナツに比べると物足りなかったが「次に来た時には必ず買うカラナ」と言い残して青信号で発車した、彼らにとって茹でるのは一番手軽な調理方法なのだろう。小さな小学生を応援してやりたくなった夕暮れ。 |

It was around 7pm and the roads were crowded as I headed to the airport. A young elementary school student, no older than 10, was riding his bicycle along the edge of the narrow road, pulling a cart. He was passed every time a car stopped in traffic, but he passed the other car when the light turned green. The cart was carrying a lit stove, a scale for measuring weight, and a load of peanuts in the carrier. The boy was pulling the wide cart and skillfully maneuvering his bicycle between the cars, holding a pile of P20 bills representing his sales in both hands. I was reminded of when I was 10 years old over 50 years ago and used to sell charcoal briquettes, which were a popular trend at the time, from a similar bike. I had a small peso coin in my pocket that I didn't need, so I rolled down the taxi window and handed it over, saying, "Please take a few if you want to use them." The boy didn't seem to understand what I was saying when he took the coins, but the taxi driver said, "Keep them for me," and it seemed he understood. I asked what they were selling and they said "peanuts." I asked how much they were and they said "Peanuts." I replied that I'd buy some next time, and they said in fluent English, "Won a try, want a try." They gave me a boiled peanut. It wasn't quite as satisfying as the crunchy peanuts I'm used to eating in Japan, but I said, "I'll definitely buy some next time," and we set off when the light turned green. For them, boiling is probably the easiest way to cook food. As evening approached, I felt like cheering on this little elementary school kid. |

カガヤンデオロに向かうフェリーの船内では体が少し冷えた程度、でもカミギン島では裏庭で風に当たっている時以外は今回はずっと汗をかいていた、セブに戻ってからもホテルでは暑過ぎたりエアコンを使うと冷えすぎたりで、帰ってから不調、帰った日の夕方に久しぶりに病院に行った。
My body only felt a little cold on the ferry to Cagayan de Oro, but on
Camiguin Island I was sweating all the time except when I was in the backyard
getting some fresh air.After returning to Cebu, the hotel was too hot and
the air conditioning was too cold, so I felt unwell after getting back
and went to the hospital for the first time in a while in the evening of
the day I got back.
