What’s Santa Doing Now?

Have you ever wondered what I get up to when December’s been and gone? This year, I’ve got a new webpage right here on the Santa’s Lapland site to keep all my friends around the world posted on what I’ve been doing, all the way up to Christmas. I bet you didn’t know that being Santa’s a full-time job, 365 days of the year! Of course, it’s seven months to go until I do my most important job on the 24th December but I’m no slacker – if I’m not interviewing elves for a prestigious job in my workshop, I’m grooming the reindeer or making sure my hot chocolate recipe is just right for all the visitors I get over Christmas. Still, even Santa needs his days off! Like many of the locals here in Lapland, I enjoy lots of outdoor activities like golf and barbecues in the summer when the sun doesn’t set ‘til late (or not at all in June!) I like a holiday as much as everyone else and this year, Mrs Claus and I are dreaming of somewhere with lots of tropical beaches… Once autumn comes around, I’ll be getting ready for Christmas again – phew! If you have some suggestions for where we should go on holiday this year, or a new hobby I should try? Tweet me @SantasLapland to share your ideas!
