    This is something we never thought we'd get to do - a weekend down in London as a family! Andy has refused to come to London for a long time, but he came down for a quick visit last year on the way home from Legoland (link below), but when we started to plan this year's weekend at Vidcon London, he got really interested in coming with us - especially to see the o2, so we booked an AirBnB for the whole family! This is day 1 of our trip, and includes a house tour of the AirBnB right on the edge of the River Thames on the Greenwich Peninsula. Make sure you check out the rest of the playlist too!

    ABOUT KEVIN CHAPMAN
    I'm a 37 year old CZcamsr from the UK. I've got a cracking beard and I'm currently going through the autism diagnosis process. I started this channel back in 2017 and by the time I left my full-time job as a Computer Science teacher in July of that year, my partner Anna was trapped in our house by our son Andy, who is autistic and had refused to go to school for 18 months. Our daughters Lucy and Amy and our dog Dave hardly saw me because I was always working to try and solve all our problems! Today I'm a full-time content creator and always at home when the kids get home from school (all our kids!) and Anna has been able to return to university. This channel is the story of my ongoing journey! Previously known as lollujo Vlogs and The Chapman Family.

    Its great to see Andy progressing. I think i understand how parents might feel about us with autism, thinking we wont all make it through to adulthood without learning and meeting milestones as fast as they think we should. But with the right support and things in place, WE CAN get there!

    The Return of the Adventure Vlog , I have been looking forward to this! :)
    wow, You got there late! Night Time!
    I am glad Andy got an Awesome view.
    Unique Vidcon Intro? Nice.
    I hope Andy had an Absolute Blast in London :)
    Anna held You Up again (Eye Roll) Typical!
    I would much rather see Andy's Adventures in London than anything else! so this Series is Exactly what I am looking for, I am sure our Friend Sez will have Vidcon Footage on Her Channel soon anyway for People who want to see Vidcon.
    Two Hours, Sadly, often turns into Ten Hours due to the M25 :(
    I absolutely Hated the Tube on the *One* Time I went to London, with School when I was in Year 6, it was a Total Sensory Overload I am afraid, so I don't even want to think about it :(
    Andy is a Young Man Now! 15, Nigh on 16! Young Man! Nae Small Boy no More!
    I watched Enough Flop Gear in My Younger Years, before I developed a Sense of Taste and Switched over to a Mix of Fifth Gear and EVO Magazine, to know that Car *always* beats Train, so I am not Surprised the other Two got their even later than You did.
    Yeah, I always have to Explore the entire House before I do *anything* Else when I go on Holiday, until I have explored the whole Building, I am not Happy.
    The Place I am going to in Summer has got En Suite in every Bedroom! That is down in Dorset However.
    Ahh, a Bath, that is something I always insist on with Holidays, if it doesn't have a Bath, I don't Go!
    My Parents don't Trust Air BNB I am afraid, there has been too many Horror Stories about them. Its at the Point now that, if its not on TripAdvisor, it doesn't get Booked.
    I don't like Townhouses, too Small for Me I am afraid.
    I am sorry one of the Balcony Panes was Broken :(
    I *Despise* Hotels, so We always go Self Catering.
    No Wagamama? Oh. Dear. That is NOT Good given that Anna is Addicted to them. At Least Andy still has His Crisps so that's Him Happy. For Me, its Burgers, I am Happy so long as I have a PLAIN (No Salad, no Relish, none of that Rubbish!) Quarter Pound Cheeseburger within Easy Reach :)
    I am sorry the Local Tesco didn't have anything You wanted.
    You need to Practice a Human Version of Dave's "FEED ME!" Stare IMO!
    I am glad Your Food from TGI Finally Arrived!
    Man, that Train was Super Late.. not good.
    I am Glad You got Andy's' Supper Ready for Him in Time! :)
    Weird Bar...
    I am Tee Total, I think Alcohol is absolutely *Evil* and want nothing to do with it.
    You would never get Me onto the Eye or on the Cable Car , because I *hate* Heights.
    Andy had an Insanely Long Day for Him on that First Day! He did incredibly well to Hold Out!!
    Good to see that Andy is Learning Patience at long Last :)
    Well, take care now Guys, Bye. Cannot wait for Tomorrow's Vlog.

    @danjuhl5134 Před 4 lety

    I am worried that Andys school might not be looking after him very well. He seems to generally behave worse and be uncomfortable at school than at home? Perhaps that suggests that the school needs to get their act together and adjust how they treat him, possible up the ressources they spend on him etc.
    The above was my thoughts when watching the 'Andy-video' from February 3rd. Thought I should post it here as well in case this input is helpful to you Kev.

    Hey kev, my school is having 23 people self isolate and my drama teacher who I was with for 5 hours yesterday is really ill in A&E being tested for Coronavirus. And my school isn’t closing for cleaning. I’m terrified. Everyone who is self isolating was ill before the isolation period started and it seems quite likely someone may have it due to the level of illness. I wish my school would just close for cleaning, but hey safety above grades. They are even still using the quarantined teacher’s classrooms today before they had been cleaned.
