Imagine if I'd been able to walk farther






Hadn't been feeling well since I struggled out of the taxi and into my Montreal hotel. Thank goodness for room service. Got brave today and went for a walk around the block to find a pharmacy. That's when I discovered it doesn't matter where you are in Montreal, there's something beautiful around every corner. Top and bottom photos here are of the convent of The Grey Sisters of Montreal. The property was sold in 2005 to Concordia University, giving les Souers Grises until 2013 to vacate the property.

Unfit hardly cuts it compared with this

I just finished reading Amber Blecker's post on her CruiseResource News Blog, describing her experience as an accidental medical tourist on the other side of the world.
Check out what she has to say -- it will knock your socks off, as my mother would have put it. And be sure to heed Amber's advice.
