Doña Ana was courted by a young lover, Don Carlos. When discovered by his father, came the closure, the threat to send her to a convent, and worst of all, marry in Spain with a rich old nobleman, which also would enhance the father of his depleted finances.
Beauty and submissive creature and her companion, Mrs. Bridget, wept and prayed together, but to no avail.
So, before you have to sacrifice, resolved that a letter would Dona Brigida Don Carlos with the sad news.
Mil conjecture was the young lover, but it was one that seemed the best choice.
A window of Dona Ana opened onto a narrow alley, so narrow that it was possible, leaning out the window, reach out and touch the opposite wall.
If they could enter the house across the street, I could talk to his beloved, between the two, finding a solution to your problem. Wonder who was the owner of that house and bought gold price.

Curiosamente, el año pasado el ayuntamiento de Guanajuato prohibió mediante una ley municipal el besarse en la vía pública. No sé si esta ley afecta también al famoso callejón donde precisamente se incita a ello y donde no faltan los pesados que te invitan a contarte la leyenda a cambio de unos pesos. Por supuesto no faltarán estos pesados en las inmediaciones a la ciudad intentando llevarte a ver las momias o buscarte un “buen” hotel, esto último en esta ciudad creo que es misión imposible ya que pudimos disfrutar de los peores hoteles que he visitado en muchos años a los precios más caros nunca views. This does not subtract any interest to come to one of the most impressive cities can be visited today on planet earth.
