The entrance of the trail was at left side of the pedestrian road toward Higashizushi. We climbed the hill from where we had good command of Zushi seashores.

[We could see Enoshima Island, 丘の上から江の島が見えた。언덕위에서 에노시마가 보였다.]

The hill must be Mt. Sengen. There was a stone monument besides a big cherry tree. We continued walking on ridge of Hayama Alps.

The trail consisted of steep up and down ridges. It was much tough comparing with Kamakura hiking course.

Near the ridge from which we could see Hayama Imperial Villa, we met a group of kindergarten kids led by a couple of teachers. A boy greeted me by saying “My name is Ai-chan.” So I replied, “My name is George.” They wee cute.

We could see Hayama Junior Highschool and Hayama International Villege from the ridge. Then we saw a group of “middle age” men, having lunch with ramen being cooked by gas burner. Some of them were smoking tabaco, so we hurried our way.

We were also finding the place for lunch. We decided to have lunch under the power tower where we had nice sunshine. (Kikko prepared riceballs and fried eggs for us.)

We went crossover above Yokohama-Yokosuka High Way, after clibming Nyutosan (211 m). From the observatory, we could see Tokyo Bay, city of Yokohama, and even a part of Chiba peninsula.

I could see Tokyo Bay Aqua-line clearly as well as Umihotaru parking area. I could spot Yokohama Landmark Tower easily, but could not see Tokyo Sky Tree clearly.

They were all left side. I could also identify the American airclaft carrier at Yokosuka American Nevy Base, well as Japanese ships at Japanese Self-defence Force Base on right side.

The final destination of the hiking was “Ume Villege” in Taura.

["Ume" blossoms were blooming at "Ume Villege" 梅の里では梅の花が咲き始めていた。『우메노사토』에서는 매화가 피기 시작하고 있었다.]

I visited one of my aunts who used to live here, with my father more than half a centry ago. So the memories of my father, my aunt, and my old days came back to me when I visited Taura.

JR Taura Station seemed not changed much. I saw same squarral eating flowers of camellia sasanqua at Taura station.

It was my 6th hike in Japan this year, and the 4th with Mr. Matsumoto.

登山年月日：2011年1月21日(金) 晴れときどき薄曇り

登山場所：神奈川県・三浦アルプス

登山コース：逗子・風見橋～仙元山～葉山アルプス～乳頭山(211m)～田浦・梅の里～JR田浦駅(約10km、5時間)

同行者：松本氏。

松本氏と10時にJR逗子改札口で待ち合わせ。彼はずいぶん早く現地到着し、喫茶店でコーヒーを飲みながら改札口を外側から観察。私は9時35分に到着。内側のホームを行き来しながら、内側から改札口を観察。結局10時過ぎに彼が出口の外側に現れ、合流。

9:06発、1番乗り場からのバスで出発。風見橋で下車。すぐ下り方向歩道の左側のコンクリートの階段から葉山アルプスの登山路へ入った。

小高い丘に登るとそこが仙元山のようで、石碑があり、逗子の一色海岸や江の島が良く見えた。

尾根伝いに乳頭山へ向かうが、登山路はかなり急な上り下りがある。

御用邸の見える付近では地元の男女の若い先生に率いられた保育園児、約10名ほどとすれ違った。先頭の男の子が「ボク、アイチャン」と自己紹介。私も「僕はジョージだよ」と返した。

右手に葉山中学や国際村などを見つつ、前進。昼ごろに１つのピークの開けた場所で、バーナーでたぶんラーメンを煮ている中年グループのわきを通った。煙草を吸っているメンバーもいてそうそうにそこを離れた。

途中、昼食をがまんして日当たりのよい鉄塔のしたで喜久子のつくった握り飯と玉子焼きなどで昼食。

その後、乳頭山(211m)を経て横横道路をまたいだ登山路を渡り、田浦の梅の里へ下りた。

乳頭山付近の展望のよい場所からは東京湾がよく望め、その先の千葉半島も、また横浜のランドマークタワーや海ほたると東京湾アクララインなどが良く見えた。

また田浦の海上自衛隊の艦船や横須賀に停泊している米軍の空母もよく見えた。松本氏はスカイツリーも見えると言ったが、私は確認できなかった。

田浦に降りた時、父の姉、タカ伯母のことを思い出した。伯母が病床の時と、死去後に父と墓参りしたのは50年以上前のことだ。この界隈は『梅の里』として公園になっているようだった。

JR田浦駅はほんとうに久しぶりだ。駅前の模様は50年前とあまり変わっていないようだった。構内のさざんかの花をリスが食べていた。
