75 tram

This noon when i was on my way to school, an 'unexpectable' thing happened that the tram broken by accident! The driver tried several times to restart the system but it didn't work. Even though it's still not the wirst thing. Since the street here is very narrow that only 2 lines for a direction, one of them serviced as temperary parking region, the remained one is for the moving cars, where also shared by the tram track. So once the tram stop its way, the subsiquencial cars, or even other trams will also be blocked.

The driver explained to us that it may cost 3-4 mins if we are all lucky, but finaly we hadn't got it. After around 10 mins' waiting ( I'm still luck because i got my palm with me, and a camera), all the passengers are required to take off the tram for another one. Then we saw a 'splendid' sence: the very long queen of transport than almost cannot see the end, especially when 4 trams appear at the same time. I think it should be very rare because many locals appears very excited about it, they even pick up the phone talking to their friends that it happened.
I would plan to take some photos of some special plant, but seems such scene worth more to pictured.

我似乎已经渐渐习惯了从住处到学校的遥远旅途, 一次TRAIN两次TRAM的转换早就把我磨的没了脾气. 今天还特意去学校新扩建的大楼转了一圈, 如此一来步行的路程总共加起来也将近20分钟了. 哎, 真是拔山涉水. 于是现在越来越佩服古人, 就算是乾隆下江南一路上的辛苦也不是今人能够轻松响应的吧. 现在的人真的是退化了. 惭愧, 惭愧.
