Tracking Santa on Christmas Eve...

The United States Air Force along with NORAD, abi-national Canadian/USA organization, helps track where Santa is onChristmas eve. They've been doing it for 50 years.

It's all in there.

I can't believe I didn't get any takers on this post.

It's great! I'm having fun with it at least.

I just called their toll-free phone line because I can't download onthis system at home, and I got "Sean" on the phone and he told me thatSanta is just about over Kabul in Afghanistan right now.

:dude:

Ho Ho Ho!

Oh I just timed it right. As soon as I clicked onthe UK Santa was just arriving here. Yay, Santas here, Santas here.Gotta get his mince pie and sherry ready, and carrots for Rudolph - Jan

My niece and nephew love it, as does Sebastian's little girl. We've been tracking him all day.

Interesting, Luvabun, your message originally displayed as 12:03 a.m. and that's when Santa arrived in the UK.

He's in Brazil - as of about 8:00 EST. We've been checking out themaps. Good geography lesson - little did I know. Santa's choice ofwhere to go and when sure is an interesting one!

In the USA, we figure we've got some time, but Joanne, one of the people tracking Santa says he's a bit ahead of schedule.

:shock:

We don't play up Santa too much. Hubby& the kids went to the Christmas Eve service at church, then onto Grandmas. Matthew didn't want to open any gifts and yelleda firm "NO!" when the kids mentioned exchanging gifts amongstthemselves tonight.He went to bed tonight withlittle fan fare. He didn't put cookies or a carrot out forRudolph like I always did when I was little. No stockingshung with care . . . nothing.

Very odd to have such a serious little man with such staunch selfcontrol. How could he turn down opening a couple giftstonight????? Absolutely noanticipation -- he fellright asleep. The only time he showed any excitement overthis Christmas was when he said he couldn't wait until I opened thegift he got for me

I didn't replyearlier because Sebastian's little girl was in such a hurry to go seethe link....We loaded the link directly to our desktop and she has beenchecking it on the hour all day! :shock:We went out earlierthis evening and when we returned she ran in to check it and when shediscovered that Santa was in Canada she ran over and climbed up ontothe counter to call Carolyn. She told her "hurry quick and get intobed, Santa is very close to your house!" This Santa business is veryserious stuff for her and Carolyn! It's 1:00a.m. here and I'm signingoff and going to bed so that I too can be asleep before Santa arrives!Merry Christmas everyone!
