Three days before Christmas, we visited Santa at the North Pole. This was the kids fourth year visiting the North Pole Experience. Every year, it seems like the experience gets better and better. For starters, the decor and ambiance at the North Pole changes ever so slightly every year to make the magic seem more real. The other component is that our kids really believe. It is so much fun to watch their faces as they walk through Santa's workshop. They are in such awe. It makes me smile to watch them experience such wonder and joy.
The North Pole Experience begins by boarding one of Santa's Magic Trolleys at the Little America Hotel. The trolley then is transported through a Magic Portal to Santa's Workshop at the North Pole. Inside the workshop, there are a multitude of rooms the kids visit including the Toy Hall of Fame, the Toy Factory, Mrs. Claus' Bakery, Elf University, the mail room, and the sleigh hanger.
The last stop at the Experience is Santa himself. The kids were so excited to give them their wish lists. And he was just as excited to receive them. It made the wait to see him that much better.
What an magical night! I'm wondering if our kids will still believe next year. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
