[The Goof Father]

In December 2005 I went to DL and had an awesome time... And I did some great pin trading too!

That was my second trip as a pin trader and I knew a little more what I was looking for. My main goal was to try and get the coolest Cast Lanyard Pins I could get. My second goal was to get cool Goofy pins if I came across some.

My wife and kids also did some trading and they did pretty well, so I may have to show their pins later.

Anyways, here is run down of what I traded for...

This pin, oddly enough, was the first I managed to trade for!

I managed to get 3 pins of this 4 pin set.

[The Goof Father]

That same day I managed to trade for this one...

[The Goof Father]

Several days of fun at DL and many trades passed by before I got the last pin of the set, but I still need the third pin...

[The Goof Father]

I managed to get this pin on the first day as well. I was off to a pretty good start!

The other two pins came fairly quickly too...

[The Goof Father]

I traded for Pluto in Critter Country at the Pooh Corner shop on day 2. That ended up being one of the best spots to find Cast Lanyard Pins.

[The Goof Father]

A couple of days passed where I mainly helped my kiddos to get good trades and I kept seeing what I already had... Over and over again! D'oh!

Finally I managed to find Donald... At Pooh's Corner again...

When I finally spent a few minutes in DCA. To be honest, I had never traded a pin in DCA, so I was lucky when the first cast member I saw had this one...

Isn't this pin actually from WDW???

COOL!

I collect that series Goof Father! I traded for the MK E ticket pin just last week.

The shops inside the Grand Californian soone became my favorite pin trading spot!

As I took the shortcut through the GCH from the Paradise Pier I saw a cast member with this one and I decided I would trade for it...

By this time all of my Ebay pins were gone and I either had Cast Lanyard Pins or some neat Goofy pins.

I decided that if I saw a cool Cast Lanyard Pin I would trade away a regular Goofy pin...

Ok Goof, are you stalking me?? I collect that series too! The parking lot series. That one is from the Disney MGM Studios.

I was pretty surprised to see it in DL... It made quite the trek to get onto my lanyard!

Yep! I thought that one was another WDW pin... That is two pins that went a long way just to be with me!

Oh, just you wait and see the other pins I got that you can't get at WDW! They are DL only!

I have some DLR pins too, that I won on Ebay.

Once again it seemed like some time passed where I mainly helped my wife and kids to get some cool pins...

But then I saw one as I walked through the GCH...

I had to have it...

Super Hero Mickey!

YEAH!
