Nico has been well introduced to the Santa routine. We haven't intentionally brought her to see Santa but he has made an appearance at many events down here. I think the first one was the best - the one with the blue background that says Christmas in the Keys.
We live practically right across the street from Theater of the Sea, a marine mammal park which does an annual unpublicized free event for local kiddos. They do a little dolphin show, the kids can touch a dolphin, and the jolly fellow himself arrives by boat coming through the mangroves to deliver a present to each child. How Keys is that! We attended yesterday although I'm still unsure what I think of the park itself (would need to learn where they get their animals and why, etc. before I gave them any money). It was very crowded and the kids were super excited. Jason got some great action shots of the dolphins and of Nico with Mr. and Mrs. Claus.
