Lucas, a bright-eyed boy of ten, stood at the edge of the tram stop, clutching his backpack. He goes to school in a tram now. His mother had just kissed him goodbye, and he waved back and stepped in.

Lucas checked in and found a seat by the window, his favorite spot. He loved watching the city come to life, the shops opening, and the bicycles weaving through traffic. The tram glides smoothly past iconic Amsterdam landmarks, the picturesque canals, and tall, narrow houses with gabled facades.

An elderly gentleman sat across from him, nodding kindly with a newspaper in hand. "Good morning," Lucas ventured, hoping for a friendly exchange.The elderly man smiled, "Good morning, young man.''

As the tram came to a halt, Lucas gathered his things, ready to leap into the day. "Have a great day at school," the gentleman said with a wave. "Thank you, sir! See you tomorrow," Lucas replied and checked out with his tram card bounding off the tram and into the schoolyard.

Lucas joined his friends, sharing stories from the tram ride and eagerly discussing the day's lessons. The school bell rang, and school day begins with teachers welcoming students at the entrance. The air is filled with anticipation and the promise of discovery.
