現在進行式

Good morning from the Kiso Valley, specifically from the Nakasendo Trail that we're going to be hiking a section of today.

早上好，我來自木曾山谷，特別是今天我們要徒步旅行的中山道。

過去簡單式

This trail originally connected Kyoto to Tokyo through a set of post towns, major post towns along the way.

這條小路最初是通過沿途的一組驛站和主要驛站連接京都和東京的。

There were 69 of them, I believe something like 17 which are located right here in Gifu.

其中有 69 家，我想大概有 17 家就在岐阜。

In fact, the two most beautifully preserved post towns are Magome-juku and Tsumago-juku and today we're at the entrance of Magome-juku and we're going to hike all the way to Tsumago-juku.

事實上，保存最完好的兩個驛站是馬籠驛站和妻籠驛站，今天我們就在馬籠驛站的入口處，一路徒步前往妻籠驛站。

This here is the lower Magome post town entrance.

這裡是下馬戈梅驛站鎮的入口。

One of the things that I love is on the other side it says, please have a safe trip back and I love their policy they have, the Nakasendo Minna de Arukoroshi as they call it.

我最喜歡的一點是，它的另一面寫著 "請一路平安"，我喜歡他們的政策，他們稱之為 "Nakasendo Minna de Arukoroshi"。

Stay healthy, stay positive, connected, stay thankful and stay focused.

保持健康，保持積極，保持聯繫，保持感恩，保持專注。

I drove out here last night with the full intention of getting some sleep but if you're already thinking that this place looks beautiful, the way it looked at night was just...

昨晚我開車來到這裡，本想好好睡上一覺，但如果你已經覺得這個地方看起來很美，那麼它在夜晚的樣子實在是......

Needless to say, I didn't get as much sleep as I was anticipating but I got plenty and now we've got a bit of a hike ahead of us.

不用說，我沒有睡到預想的那麼多，但也睡了不少，現在我們要去遠足了。

The sun rises pretty early in the summer and so do the locals.

夏天的太陽昇起得很早，當地人也是如此。

A lot of the locals actually use this hill for exercise since it's super steep and I've already been stopped probably three, four times for conversations.

實際上，很多當地人都利用這座山來鍛鍊身體，因為它超級陡峭，我已經被攔下大概三、四次進行交談了。

Oddly, almost everyone has approached me in English.

奇怪的是，幾乎所有人都用英語和我交流。

Last year I was actually able to visit a post town called Narai-juku.

去年，我真的去了一個叫 Narai-juku 的驛站小鎮。

I woke up super early in the morning to go there and the post town that we're going to be walking to Tsumago-juku as well.

為了去那裡，我一大早就起床了，因為我們還要步行去妻籠宿。

And I got a lot of questions asking, what's a post town?

很多人問我，什麼是驛站小鎮？

It's just become such a normal word to me but the answer is really simple.

對我來說，這只是一個很普通的詞，但答案其實很簡單。

It's just a town with a branch of the post office.

這只是一個有郵局分局的小鎮。

Stepping off the main path for a second, one of the things that makes Tsumago-juku really beautiful is all the plants and flowers that are set up along the side of the road.

稍稍離開主路，妻籠宿最美的地方之一就是路邊的花草樹木。

Also, for as simple as it is, there's just something about this scene here that I really like.

另外，雖然很簡單，但這一幕我真的很喜歡。

Tsumago-juku actually has a lot of Suzume or sparrow which are seen as a really good sign.

實際上，妻籠塾有很多被視為好兆頭的 Suzume 或麻雀。

In fact, if a sparrow chooses to nest in your home or business, they just don't touch it.

事實上，如果麻雀選擇在您的家裡或公司裡築巢，它們就是不碰它。

And this here actually brings us to the upper entrance of Tsumago-juku and that right there is the entrance to the old Nakasendo trail out of Magome-juku.

這裡實際上是妻籠驛的上入口，而那裡則是通往馬籠驛中山道的入口。

You could spend hours out in Magome-juku.

您可以在馬籠宿逗留幾個小時。

I came here a couple weeks ago as the starting point to a road trip adventure and I actually did an entire walk around the town and I really regretted not having enough time to do the Nakasendo hike all the way to Tsumago-juku so I promised myself that I'd come back.

幾周前，我來到這裡，作為公路探險之旅的起點，我實際上在小鎮周圍走了一圈，我真的很後悔沒有足夠的時間進行中山道徒步旅行，一直走到妻籠宿，所以我答應自己會再來。

The walk from Magome out to Tsumago-juku is just about 8 kilometers or so and this section of the Nakasendo trail is connected by this gorgeous cobblestone path which I'm a pretty big fan of.

從馬込步行到妻籠宿大約 8 公里左右，這段中山道由華麗的鵝卵石路連接，我非常喜歡這條路。

The area is filled with bears and they put out these giant, very loud bells for you to ring to hopefully clear the path along the way.

這裡到處都是熊，他們會拿出巨大而響亮的鈴鐺讓你敲響，希望能讓沿途的道路暢通無阻。

I'm actually also carrying bear spray with me right here just in case.

實際上，我還隨身攜帶了防熊噴霧，以防萬一。

But who knows, maybe we'll meet a bear today.

但誰知道呢，也許我們今天會遇到一隻熊。

Especially since now, now we're heading into the forest.

尤其是現在，我們要進入森林了。

Also, the cobblestones get really mossy which means you need to be super careful because you will slip.

此外，鵝卵石上還長滿了青苔，這意味著你需要格外小心，因為你會滑倒。

As time went on, a road was built through the Nakasendo path so at several points it'll dump you out onto a road like this but there are always markers to let you know how and where to continue.

隨著時間的推移，人們在中山道上修建了一條公路，是以在很多地方都會把你甩到這樣的公路上，但總會有標記讓你知道如何以及在哪裡繼續前行。

And along the way you're likely to find little rest stops and shops like this one here.

沿途你可能會發現像這裡這樣的小休息站和小商店。

And as curious as I am about this shop here, which at the moment is unmanned, I'm far more curious about the contents of the back of this gentleman's truck.

雖然我對這家目前無人值守的商店很好奇，但我對這位先生卡車後面的東西更好奇。

It's not even milk and eggs, it's beer and eggs.

這甚至不是牛奶和雞蛋，而是啤酒和雞蛋。

And we are climbing through the mountains so there are quite a few hills.

我們正在翻山越嶺，所以有不少山路。

In fact, so far it's been pretty much entirely uphill.

事實上，到目前為止，這幾乎都是上坡路。

We're at an elevation of, it says, 777 meters right now. 777.

And now crossing over from Gifu into Nagano.

Over here is a tea house but considering how early in the morning it is, it's still closed.

這邊是一家茶館，但考慮到現在時間尚早，茶館還沒開門。

Maybe we'll get lucky and find an open one along the way.

也許我們運氣好，能在路上找到一個空地。

When I was planning my very first trip to Japan ever, I did what most people do and did a ton of research and found all these spots that I wanted to visit and very high on that list were a few specific post towns.

當我計劃我的第一次日本之旅時，我像大多數人一樣做了大量的研究，找到了我想去的所有景點，其中最想去的是幾個特定的驛站小鎮。

I never got to visit them on that trip and as the years went by, I lost all the research documents that I'd put together and couldn't remember which post town it was.

那次旅行我沒能去拜訪他們，隨著時間的流逝，我丟失了所有整理好的研究文件，也不記得是哪個郵政小鎮了。

When I went to Naraijuku, I was very happy but that wasn't it.

當我去成城時，我非常高興，但這還不是最重要的。

Sumagojuku, super happy but that wasn't it.

住鄉宿，超級開心，但這還不夠。

But when I stumbled on Magomejuku, that was it and I could not possibly be happier about it.

但當我偶然發現馬格梅宿時，我再也高興不起來了。

And it wasn't just Magomejuku, it was this Nakasendo trail, this hike.

不僅僅是馬籠宿，還有這條中山道，這條遠足路線。

In fact, there's hairpin turns like the ones up here and I've just been looking forward to walking this for something like more than 15 years.

事實上，像這樣的髮夾彎我已經盼了 15 年了。

As time went by and tourism started to pick up in Japan, a lot of places started to get really crowded and touristy and then life gets busy and you find all these excuses not to do the things that you've always wanted to do, which is why I've spent the last year seeking out and exploring all these places.

隨著時間的推移，日本的旅遊業開始回暖，很多地方開始變得非常擁擠，遊客越來越多，生活也變得忙碌起來，你會找到各種藉口不去做你一直想做的事情，這就是為什麼我在過去的一年裡一直在尋找和探索這些地方的原因。

讓我們拭目以待，看看羅達的腦袋裡到底裝著什麼。

And I didn't mean that metaphorically, I actually meant let's see what the rhoda...

我的意思不是比喻，而是讓我們看看羅達......

It could be metaphorical, take it as you will.

這可能是一種隱喻，你可以隨意理解。

日本人就是喜歡 777 這個數字。

You know that thing when you look forward to something for a really long time and you build it up in your head, all these expectations of what it's going to be like when you finally get to do it, and then you do it and it's nothing like you expected at all.

你知道嗎，當你期待一件事很久，在腦海中建立起它的樣子，所有這些期望，當你最終去做的時候，會是什麼樣子，然後你去做了，它和你預期的完全不一樣。

Forest, the moss covered walkways, the way the light cuts through the trees, everything about this place.

森林、長滿青苔的人行道、光線穿過樹林的方式，這裡的一切。

Look at this, look at the light cutting through the trees up here.

看看這裡，看看穿過樹林的光線。

It's kind of concerning that in this stretch here there have been bear bells probably every minute to two minutes.

令人擔憂的是，在這段路上，可能每隔一到兩分鐘就會有一次熊鈴聲。

Okay, so I am 90%, no 99% sure that this, this is the spot.

好吧，我有90%，不對，是99%的把握，就是這裡，就是這裡。

This is the spot that when I was planning that first ever trip to Japan I saw this, this set of like cobblestone hairpins.

這就是我第一次計劃去日本旅行時看到的地方，這組鵝卵石髮夾。

I'm so excited, I'm like a little kid right now.

我太激動了，現在就像個小孩子。

One more thing off the bucket list, just checked off.

遺願清單上又多了一件事，剛剛完成。

I honestly don't know what it is, it's just such a beautiful spot.

老實說，我也不知道是什麼原因，就是這裡太美了。

Black cattle was used to carry a load in a rapid slope.  It is a rest in peace pagoda of the black cattle.

黑牛被用來在急坡上馱運貨物。  這是一座黑牛安息塔。

This Ishibotoke is the only enshrined to Nakasendo.

這座石佛是唯一供奉在中山堂的石佛。

Most are rest in peace pagodas of the horses.

它給人的感覺就像是一片古老的日本。

Like this, this is what I've been looking for all this time.

就像這樣，這就是我一直在尋找的東西。

Yes, I know I'm looping, but I'm just feeling so much happiness.

是的，我知道我在循環播放，但我就是感到非常幸福。

Happiness and sweat, but mostly happiness.

We're not that far from Tsumagojuku now, so let's push on and get to our next beautiful post town.

現在距離妻籠宿已經不遠了，讓我們繼續前進，前往下一個美麗的驛站小鎮。

As I go along, I keep passing through tiny little towns like this along the way.

一路上，我不斷經過這樣的小鎮。
