Beach

We took a short 1-night trip to the beach.  We stayed at a place he is familiar with because he loves their pool.  Unfortunately the pool pump broke right before we got there and was scheduled to be fixed just as we were leaving.   But, they let John in there anyway for a short swim.  It seemed like it was enough to keep him happy.
This was probably the best trip we've had with John.  He was well behaved the whole time, didn't have any seizures, and was safe enough at the beach that we could just let him be.  
The weather was beautiful and warm and we couldn't see another person in any direction.   It was like a giant playground for him.

He refuses to drink from a cup:

The beach all to ourselves:

 

John actually playing normally and safely:

One little act of defiance just as a reminder:

You can see his joy in the video:
