        NORAD Tracks Santa

Today's site, from the folks at the North American Aerospace Defense Command --
NORAD, who know how to track everything, provides all the information necessary 
to
keep tabs on hard-to-identify flying objects originating from the North Pole.
Gentle Subscribers with family members who have a vested interest in the 
progress
of a certain jolly gentleman should find this site to, once again, be of 
invaluable
assistance.

"Santa's elves have been busier than usual this year preparing for Christmas 
Eve.
.. Follow Santa as he makes his magical journey! ... Santa Cams are ultra-cool,
high-tech, high-speed digital cameras pre-positioned at many locations around 
the
world only on Christmas Eve. The cameras capture images and videos of Santa and 
his
reindeer as they make their journey around the world. ... This page is 
continuously
updated as new videos become available." - from the website

The happy notes of Leroy Anderson's Sleigh Ride welcome visitors to the site,
available in seven different languages. Offering a number of different ways to
follow St. Nick's journey around the world, the presentation features the 
facility
to track Santa for those who have Google Earth installed on their computers, as
well as watching his trip via the special Santa cams. Because of the time zone
factor, Santa has already visited parts of the Antipodes, so that film clips 
from
Australia and New Zealand are currently available. 

Glide over to the site to follow Santa's excursion around the world this 
Christmas
Eve at:
