Santa Tracking with a GPS

All the residents of the Merry-Christmas village voiced their opinion and we’ve narrowed down the choice to either the Golden Flash or the Silver Streak sleigh for delivering gifts this Christmas Eve. It’s been a while since I’ve taken the Silver Streak, but I’ll let Mrs. Claus make the final selection since she does the final inspections with Elf Emmup. The elves tell me that with all the RADAR devices that are scanning the skies that I need to catch up with technology! They’re attaching Global Positioning Systems (GPS) devices on all the sleighs. Plus they’ll be broadcasting what they are calling a blue-red-green“Santa Beacon” This will allow kids around the world to be able to see where we’re at when we’re on out Christmas Eve route! You know, I will still rely on the reindeer for directions – for no matter how fancy and high-tech the electronics nothing beats finding directions than a flying reindeer. They have the unique gift to know exactly where they are, and where they’re going without any electronic gizmos. But, with all these monitors and flashing lights inside the sleigh Elf Emmup said this will be the first Christmas we will be able to check the weather conditions everywhere!
