Alice's Bucket List One Wish More Bone Marrow

Oh wow indeed Alice, your little blog has caused a stir around the world. Congratulations!

Oh for those who are reading Alice X as she goes by on her blog is a 15 year old girl with terminal cancer who decided that rather than feeling sorry for herself she would take the time to make a difference in the world with one of her bucket list entries. That entry asks people to register to give bone marrow, not only has she gotten a response to that request but, also has raised 10,00 British Pounds for cancer research, or about 16 thousand in Canadian dollars, nicely done.

This is a blog that has just come online as of June 4th and already it has drawn international attention. It's nice to see a young person facing death doing something to help others. Alice, all this blogger can say is, may your blog and life story inspire us to do a good turn even when we are getting a raw deal in life.

Alice's Bucket list can be viewed by via Blogger and she also has a Twitter account. For more details visit the blog.

Chateu Ramezay Montreal

While taking a surf around Google searched for Montreal history and found an interesting museum complete with garden here in Montreal. Chateau Ramezay is considered to be among one of the oldest buildings in Montreal. The website invites visitors to enter Montreal's history through it's grand door.

The museum houses permanent and temporary exhibits. There are two permanent exhibits that feature the histories of Montreal, Quebec and Canada dating back 500 years. And, right now there is a temporary exhibit called Profit and Ambition, which explores the Canadian fur trade from 1779 to 1821. The exhibit is running now until October of this year.

Besides the exhibits the museum houses many different artifacts of all kinds and there is the Governor's Garden. The garden features flowers, herbs and an orchard. It is considered to be one of the finest gardens in Montreal.
