Bag theft at lo pagan beach bar cafe
Hi my wife and I visited the Costa calida for the first time last week, a short 3 day trip to look at the area and some properties with a view to buy initially as a holiday home.While having coffee on beach front tables at the beach bar cafe, just a few hours before our flight home my wife's handbag was stolen. Lost money, cards, passports, car keys for our car parked at stansted, nightmare. Bag was on the floor between our two chairs. The cafe was very quiet, but someone took it almost before our eyes, while we were no doubt enjoying the beautiful view. We finally got home 3 days late after a trip to British consulate in Alicante to get emergency passports (super efficient).
A very unpleasant experience but one which has not put us off, we loved the area it's birdwatching and fishing opportunities and the properties we saw. We are just catching are breath and hope to start the process of buying in lo pagan.
So please beware, like anywhere bags can be stolen, I know my wife will have a very eagle eye on hers from now on. Also we will now keep a record of our passport number separate and all our passwords etc.
Anyway, if there are any keen fishermen or birdwatchers in the area we would be glad to meet you and share experiences.
Brian and Sue
