:oops: There isn't that much to tell unfortunatly. We got there about 4:30pm, and then someone started the que for the Pin Trading Night pin coupons at about 4:50pm, even though they don't give out the coupons till 6pm. We knew we had to rush off and get the coach to the airport as soon as we bought the pins, so there wasn't much time for browsing at all.

The lovely Jessica Rabbit Cast Member was there. :) He's such a nice man (although he's also a little bit odd). He introduced me to another Cheshire Cat collector, so I had a look at his pins. He had loads of my Holy Grails, but I didn't really have anything he wanted to trade. If I would've had enough time after buying the PTN pins then I would've gone back to trade with him, but the coach was at 6:45pm and by the time we got our coupons and qued up to buy the pins it was about 6:35pm. We needed to pick up our bags as well from the baggage hold room, so we literally did have to rush out and get ourselves sorted.

Since this was my 3rd Pin Trading Night, I wasn't too upset about not having enough time at it. And this time I found myself just feeling a bit skeptical about trying to talk/trade with anyone, considering how badly poor Aveen had been treated at her 1st PTN. Also, the area they set up at the Sequoia lodge was much much bigger than the Santa Fe area they set up for the last 2 PTNs I'd been too. Once again it was all a bit too over-whelming, and although more time would've been nice, I was still most interested in just getting the PTN pins and going home.

I cant wait to go to a PTN maybe next year when I get myself sorted and I can take a trip to DLRP :) as would love to go even for a few days or just for the experience of the night really.

Thanks Lindsay. It's a shame you didn't have more time to trade before going home. I can't decide if i would like to go to one of these or not considering that you take so much time out of the park and they could just turn down all your trades. At least it is free to go to and the pin trading night pins are always good to trade with.

thats all I would really want if I went to one of these is a PTN pin, Id keep one for myself no matter who it was as a momento of first one but Id trade the reast as they are always tradable which is a good thing.

:P Aww, don't be silly Aveen. I wasn't scared, I was just skeptical. Since we didn't have much time, I just didn't see much point in even bothering to try and trade with anyone. If we would've had more time it would surely be a different story. :)

Wendy has just found out that there is a PTN on the 26th of feb which is whilst we are out there. This will be our 4th night and will be looking forward to it. I just hope the dont run out of pins like last time we were there.

We have found from the experience so far that there are a core group who go to all the nights who if your not careful will try and trade your pins for either french limited or want 2/3 pins for 1, which really is frustrating. :evil:

That said they are not all bad and it is great to see people from all over the world sharing in our hobby :D/


8 days till DLRP here we come
