What is your name? Binnie, AKA List Mom
MFL's List Mom Binnie.
Who does your family consist of? My husband Joe and a rather demanding feline named Polly Molly (after Steeler, Polamalu).
What is your occupation? Semi-retired and dedicated to all things the mouse.
Who is your favorite Disney Character and why? Sorcerer Mickey because he's even more magical.
As an ImaginEAR, what regular feature/job do you do for MFL? - List Mom
How many times have you vacationed to a Disney destination? Too many to count. I actually used to keep track but gave up about 10 years ago. :-)
What is your favorite Disney Resort (or off site property) and why? Animal Kingdom Lodge. I love the sights, smells, drum beating, great food (especially Boma and Mara's soups) and waking up to animals roaming beneath my balcony.
What is your favorite Disney restaurant, in or out of the parks? Jiko at AKL.
What is your favorite ride or attraction at any of the Disney parks? I love the thrill rides, give me Tower of Terror and Test Track any day. Kilimanjaro Safari and Soarin' Over California are also favorites.
When visiting Disney theme parks, do you "park hop" or not and why? Most days I do. I've been so many times, I now just hit a few different parks each day to do my favorites.
What is your favorite Disney memory? My first trip with my granddaughter. It was her very first trip to WDW, and Nana did everything she could think of to make it magical. We had so much fun, we barely made our return flight on time.
What is your favorite "extra cost" event/tour? Sunset Safari.
Have you met any MFL members at a Disney park? If so, who and what did you do? Since I've been to every Mousefest since the beginning, these are too numerous to list. Let's just say I've met a lot of MFL members, had a lot of great meals with wonderful people, and rode Kilimanjaro Safari with a few hundred friends.
Besides "things Disney", what do you like to do in your free time? Wait...there's such a thing as free time??? I don't find the time often, but I love to ride my bike on the bike trails of Pittsburgh.
What would people be surprised to know about you? I was chased by a wild boar and caught outside in a tornado when I was young and growing up in Florida. I also like to write and have a few stories published.
What is your best MouseForLess money saving tip? Use The Magic For Less Travel to help locate discounts when they are released, of course. :-)
What area of TheMouseForLess.com do you use most frequently? It would have to be the Current Code page at: http://www.themouseforless.com/tripplanning/currentcode.shtml!
What is your favorite aspect of MFL? From a List Mom's point of view, I would have to say how well everyone gets along. I know there are times that messages get a little less than magical, but everyone is always so willing to comply with moderation requests and list rules, and I often find myself thinking how special this group is. :-)
