Crowds of tourists are ideal hunting grounds for pickpockets and other losers.
You have to be reasonably aware so that you don't get your pocket picked.
Additionally people tend to push and shove a lot, and you have to keep an eye
out in order to avoid your equipment being bumped around.  It's very
distracting, as my ruining of a roll of Kodachrome demonstrates.  That's only
the second time I've exposed a roll like that (the last time, I salvaged most of
the shots, but this time I decided to just write off the roll, since they were
routine pictures that I can take again on another day).
