meaning

Hello,


I managed to get a place to stand along

the railing. I saw the rippling of the still water as the ferry

moved. It was moving smoothly on the water. There were rows

of coconut trees on the banks of the river. As we moved

swiftly, I could see people, fishing, washing, bathing along

the banks and working.

Here I am a bit confued about the presence of "working".

Does it mean people are working along the river bank?

Thanks.

Yes, that's how I read it. Either next to, or near enough the river to be seen by the writer.
