Zaps have their special way of finding their way to us when they are most needed. 2 days ago I got a very special zap that was timed perfectly and accompanied by a very heart warming note.

I could not believe what I saw upon opening the package. Small World is my "leisure" collection. It is a non-pressure side collection purely for enjoyment and happy memories (and not greed .. LOL ) as it reminds me of one of my top 3 fave rides in MK. I was after this particular Small World pin for a long time, and I missed it on Ebay countless times by pennies.

The zap is a after-product of Docfish2u+Amy+Rocke01+Nena pin party from April - at least the note said so. Then I sent a "Thank You" PM to my zappers and get a PM back from doc saying that he could not take credit for it as it was Darlene's doing. And then, I get a PM from Darlene telling me that she wanted to give me something special and pulled this pin out of her collection. At this point I was floored - twice!

See it here for yourselves:

Dear Darlene and da' gang: I thank you beyond words can say for thinking of me. I will truly, truly cherish this pin. Now I have another happy memory attached to this very dear ride thanks to your zap. If you find your ears ringing on Sept 27th, it will be me: Riding SW in MK and thinking of you warmly :)

And your timing was perfect. I am usually a very happy-go-lucky person, but I really really needed a pick me up this time.
 
Gorgeous pin! And it couldn't have gone to a nicer person.

Rocke/Docfish & co. are certainly making their rounds!

It's a Small World is one of my "top 3" rides too, along with Peter Pan's Flight and the Haunted Mansion. (The Enchanted Tiki Room - not a ride - is an honorable mention!)

Just out of curiosity, what are your other two? :)

I am glad that pin found you Selen! I have been looking through your wants for months trying to find something worthy to send you. Finally, decided to send you this pin from my collection. It is well deserved and I could not be happier with my decision after reading this post and your PM! BTW... David and Amy do get credit. I swapped a pin from the gathering for zapping with this pin in order to send it from the gathering. David also paid the postage to send it to you so he IS involved in it! Our money is really tight here and David has helped me send out the gathering zaps by providing postage monies where needed. It is truly from all four of us. ENJOY!
 
I really love that pin you got! Congrats Selen! Small world is one of my leisure collections too. Couldn't have gone to a better person!
