Greetings from the North Pole
Yesterday I had the great honor of joining more than 60 kids from Spokane, Washington on a quick trip to the North Pole.
We flew, of course. On a special Alaska Airlines flight. And for most of those kids it was their first time going to the airport, the first time flying on a plane, and of course, the first time going to the North Pole. So Santa sent some elves to help out with some of the tricky parts, like going through security.
The North Pole was a magical as you’d think (more on that later in the week) but, because I was dressed as an (undercover) elf I was able to sneak into Santa’s Flight Center and snap a few photos that offer some insight into the Christmas Eve routine.
Thanks to the folks at the Spokane Fantasy Flight for letting me ride along. Especially, Tammikins, my elf guide there on the right.
