Countdown to Santa

Posted by Jen on Thursday Dec 17, 2009

This Christmas, we are looking forward to tracking Santas flight schedule at the Norad website using Google Earth. According to the website, if we go to Norads Santa Tracking page on Christmas Eve, we will be able to watch Santa get closer and closer to our house. For our young kids, this will be a great chance for them to see where we live on a global scale–I wonder how they will feel about their cousin in Maine getting Santa goodies first!
