I love to use the NORAD Santa tracker on Christmas Eve and have done so for many years. It reminds me just how far Santa travels, how many people he visits.
Click on the link and it will take you to the Advent countdown and Santa tracker. Norad (The North American Aerospace Defense Command) exists mainly to provide aerospace monitoring of aircraft, missiles and space vehicles so tracking Santa is well within its remit. Santa's mission is, of course, considered not to be hostile and Norad will offer any necessary assistance should he find himself in difficulties. They have been tracking Santa every year since 1955 so their archive of information is extensive. By Christmas Eve the team will be on full alert and minute by minute reporting of Santa's journey will be available. In the meantime games, music, movies etc are available. Do visit!
The Sinhala word for Christmas, "naththal" is based on the Portuguese "natal"; one of several Portuguese words to enter the language when they colonized parts of the country.

DeleteWell done. When the boys were growing up we always checked NORAD for Santa travels, after all the station is in northern Canada.
