Merry Christmas to all who celebrates X’mas!
Santa had a chat with Justin on his lap when we visited his “hometown” in Rovaniemi over Summer. He gave Justin this little toy at the end of the chat and it’s become one of Justin’s most prized possessions.
This is a little toy car that Santa gave to Justin when we visited Santa in Rovaniemi, Finland during Summer.
