Early morning start visiting the Purple mountain. It was not purple and actually looked more like a hill, but okay. Being a Saturday, it was crowded with tourists, mostly other chinese, everything went well until about lunch time when I got robbed of my video camera. This happened in the bathroom, I felt something happening to my backpack and felt for my camera and the next second it was gone. I tried to stop all the ladies from leaving but it was really difficult because there were at least 15 in the small area and no one spoke English. There was one lady who quickly left the bathroom and I am suspecting her as the one. It was really sad because I hadn't yet taken off all the videos I had made until so far, so now all my videos are lost for ever. I'm sure the person will just delete everything and sell the camera for a much lower price than that it's worth. Therefore after this happening I am not trusting anyone anyone anyone any more! And this has definitely made my experience of China and the "lovely" Chinese people less pleasurable.
