Each Year NORAD tracks Santa with radar if you have any kids or grandkids that would like to do so.

http://www.noradsanta.org/

Once you get to that link, just click on your language. That will bring you the satelite image which will update as Santa goes around the world. There are also many other links on the top with videos, etc.

Have fun and Merry Christmas to all. :)

I've loved tracking Santa with Norad for a few years now, but never realised that Norad is a real place until we were driven by the mountain when we were in Colorado with the choir in October! I know - dumb Brits!

Still a kid myself I guess. ;)

Well, it's that time of year again almost. The countdown at the website says 4 days, 15 hours, 29 minutes and 18 seconds.

BTW, they added music to the main page and when I opened it, I almost got blasted off the computer. LOL

Santa gets to my area before he does yours Jan so I might hitch a ride Christmas Eve and have him drop me at your house. Please have extra cookies and milk ready. :wub:

And did you know that there is a real town named NORTH POLE and it is in Alaska? http://www.northpolealaska.com/ I was there and visited Santa's house and saw all the elves and workshops there... When I was there I ordered letters to be written from santa which had the North Pole stamp on it http://www.santaclaushouse.com/ ... that sure confused the grandkids when they each received real letters from Santa. The looks on their faces was priceless.

My brother-in-law used to ring my kids up on Christmas Eve, pretending to be Santa. I didn't tell them who it was until they were in their twenties!

Can I come too? He gets to me even earlier....
I might need something a bit stronger than milk though by that stage! :wub:

When I used to drive around back home in Wales, I used to send my Christmas cards from "Bethlehem"..
The kids never worked it out for years that it was a place in Wales!!!!... :lol: :lol:
