When we were young we used to wonder the current place where Santa is, it could either be in the Taj Mahal, London Bridge, Eiffel Tower – you don’t care! As long as Mr. Nicholas drop you some gifts inside the red sock that you prepared under the chimney tops, you will be leaping out of joy! And suddenly your Christmas year became complete again.
NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command) has been doing the job of tracking Santa’s reindeer charade throughout the world for 50 years and now a wonderful update unfolds – They are teaming up with Google Earth to give the kids of all ages (literally) the ability to spy on St. Nich, realtime!
Here’s a how it looks like on 2008
If you’ll visit http://www.noradsanta.org/, you can see Santa’s path along with some tweeted updates which can be sent to your cellphone too.

As for now, Mr. Santa has just finished his sweep throughout the world and he is now back on North Pole to gather gifts again for next year’s Christmas!
HO-HO-HO!
Food for thought: Keep in mind that all of these are only fictional and not in anyway related to reality. Either way, Santa Claus has been part of our traditional celebration for Christmas and its best to keep it that way. Ahayt, Mister Scrooge?
