But then I began to notice how the crowd ebbed and flowed.

The crowd ebbs into a dining room - all white linen, candlelight, multiple forks.

I had rescued the four bags from the broken conveyor belt, and we stood by them as the crowd ebbed and flowed against us.

We stopped at another station and the crowd ebbed and flowed once more.

The crowd ebbed and flowed around tables of food and waiters bearing trays.

The lively crowd ebbed and flowed in size from a couple of dozen people to a few hundred.

She moved with the crowd now, craning to see him, but the crowd was ebbing back and forth like a single, panicked organism.

The crowds swarming through the passageways had not ebbed.

At the new Sony, it certainly seemed so, as throughout the afternoon the crowd surged and ebbed as one movie after another approached its starting time.

And the journey is especially rewarding in autumn when the crowds have ebbed and the weather is still fine.
