A day in the life: Pt.14
02:27:52pm. Port Melbourne.
One more tram ride for the day, back into the city. A real cross-section of Melbourne, riding all together…
tram
071.

Melbourne 365: Day 364
There are other cities with trams, for sure. There are other tram networks. But this one is ours. Oh, and it also happens to be the longest in the world. The world… All through the city you can hear them, clattering along all day and most of the night. They are as much a part of Melbourne as, well, the other 15 icons that have featured in the latter part of this project.
(Sharon’s slightly older model tram is on her blog here.)

It’s easy to forget, in the middle of the middle of the city, carried along in the flow of the crowd, that there is value in stillness, power in silence, and growth in contemplation.
