A Surprise at the North Pole Everything was calm at the North Pole—until it wasn’t. Out of nowhere, a tow truck appeared, hooking Santa’s sleigh to its winch. “Late payments,” the driver said, scribbling on a clipboard.
Santa’s eyes went wide. “You can’t take my sleigh!” he cried.
The driver shrugged. “Talk to the bank, big guy.” As the truck pulled away, Mrs. Claus shook her head. “Should’ve signed up for autopay,” she said.
New Plan, New Ride With Christmas just weeks away, Santa needed a plan. Fast. Reindeer alone wouldn’t cut it. Then, it hit him. “We’re going to Florida,” he said with a grin.
“Do we need sunscreen?” asked Rudolph, squinting at his legs.
Santa’s new ride? A candy cane-striped jet ski he bought from a guy named Chip in Cocoa Beach. “This baby’s fast and smooth,” said Chip, patting the seat. Santa’s eyes twinkled. “Perfect.”
Santa’s Florida Debut Word spread fast. TikToks of Santa riding his jet ski racked up millions of views. “He’s really out here!” someone shouted as Santa zipped past, beard blowing in the wind.
Kids cheered from docks, waving signs that read, “I’ve been good!” Teens yelled, “Do a backflip!” (He didn’t.) With Christmas music blasting from a speaker on his jet ski, Santa tossed gifts onto patios and balconies like a pro.
Reindeer on Break Back at the North Pole, the reindeer lived it up. Blitzen started a podcast called “Antler Talk.” Dasher tried hot yoga. Rudolph? He hit Miami, riding a banana boat in sunglasses. TMZ caught it all, and he went viral on ReindeerGram.
Christmas Eve Adventure Santa’s Christmas Eve ride had never been smoother. No icy weather, no fog—just warm breezes and calm water. He weaved through canals and past beach houses lit with Christmas lights.
At one stop, a fisherman’s pole snagged on his sack. “That’s my lucky rod!” yelled the fisherman. Santa tossed him a new rod with a wink.
A playful dolphin followed him for miles. “You’re on the Nice List,” Santa said, tossing it a fish. By the time he reached Key West, he’d run out of cookies but snagged a slice of key lime pie from a cafe. “This is better than cookies,” he said, grinning.
Christmas Morning in Florida The next morning, Floridians woke up to gifts on porches and footprints in the sand. Kids squealed as they opened presents. One kid gasped, “He really came!” A curious toddler followed the jet ski tracks, whispering, “Santa rides the waves.”
As the sun rose, Santa sped off down the coast. On WAVE 105.3 FM, the DJ announced, “Santa’s gone coastal, folks. He’s trading snow for sea spray!”
