 This is not child’s play…pin trading and collecting is serious business.  Check out the traders that we met at the Olympic Park and their bags of pins for trade.  There are rules and etiquette guidelines.  I learned how to trade and was also given pins by mom and dad.  I am proud to say that I came home with 22 pins from all over the world and limited editions.  Today mom talked to a lady at United, Lisa, who told her that her husband and her son volunteered at the 2002 Olympic games in Salt Lake City, Utah.  Perhaps I can trade some pins with their family!  It was a great way to meet kids and parents from all over the world.
