Sounds like fun... Your not wrong about the people in Paris.  Mind you the minute I mentioned Australia their attitudes change... They are not all like that, but wow it was amazing.. If they think you are from England then they have issues with you.. But say you are Aussie and they are all over you..   Even the dirty old men in the park... I could not sit down to read a book with out some one telling me they loved me and wanted my address, or telling me they would love to teach me French.. It pays when going to paris not to look like a tourist when you are alone..

I know how Matt must feel. I hate it every time I leave my family. It takes me a couple of weeks to get over it all.  Its not easy being so far from home.. But one good thing about it though is when we do get together  I feel the time shared is so much more intence and soooo much fun....  Hope he is feeling less homesick soon..

Hey guys, glad your back! Matt will be fine, it is hard to leave family not knowing when you will see them again. i was bad enough leaving my brothers after christmas, and they at least live in the country even if we dont ever see them! LOL.

I just read your question about getting Soph back into her bed,  the only thing I learnt from the sleep centre is to be persistant. Dont start while she is sick, when she is better, just be persistant, even when its the 5th time and its 2am, its the only way I know and it did work for Caitlin. But gosh it was hard!!!

good luck and glad you had fun!
