Pin trading at AKV

[Tink6666]

I have a strange question... We are in the process of planning a June 2011 trip to WDW with our family + my parents. My Dad LOVES pin trading My DD wants to stay at AKV, do both Jambo house and Kidani have a pin trading area with a book you can trade to/from? This would be a deal breaker for me in staying there....He loves it that much and 2010 was his first time at WDW!

Thanks

I'm here at Jambo and the Activities schedule that I got at check-in lists a "Pin Trade with the King Pin" weekdays at 3:00 at Zawadi Marketplace. Kidani doesn't list any similar activity. CMs at both places are always wearing their pin lanyards for trade though.

We visited AKL in Feb before becoming DVC members. My boys love pin trading and we were able to see King Pin. He was great! We just got back from our first DVC stay at AKV kidani. is beautiful and love the extra bathroom. It was a short walk over to Jambo. I would pick Kidani and walk over to trade in the afternoon. Oh - I should check and see if I won the lot of pins I was trying for on ebay! Have to get ready for our trip in March and they make great stocking stuffers.
