I know this is a repeat of sorts but I want to make sure that you remember to bookmark the page or download the app before Christmas eve so you can watch Santa's flight! ALSO if you do not have internet at home you can CALL NORAD on Christmas eve ONLY at 1 877 HI-NORAD (1 877 446-6723) and a NORAD staff member will answer your call and tell you Santa's last known location! A few years ago we called the number because our internet was down, a nice officer answered the phone and told us where Santa was last seen. Then he asked where WE were from and we said Van Buren Maine... THE OFFICER WAS FROM LIMESTONE!!! He was coming home for Christmas and was leaving right after his shift! He was so excited that we were from nearby, gave him weather updates and road conditions for his drive from Bangor too!
