Thanks for your info. In which area are their bags stolen?

--Takashi@IAH

One of them was apparently walking through the Retiro train station area with her backpack and handbag --that's not a nice area to wander around, even for us locals. The other one was at a bar in San Telmo and let her bag under the chair, and so someone profited from a moment of distraction. San Telmo is not unsafe, but is tremendously touristy.
