italian santa's in India

ahh technical problems...first my beloved G1 breaks down and then my mac (my life!) however i digress....and life goes on. Surreal is the only way i can describe today, santa arrives from italy (2 days early!), a game man willing to wear the suit and beard for at least 4 hours in 30 very humid degrees He parades around the orphanage with a sleigh/cart pulled by decorated oxen. Then he gets his photo taken with all 1000 of the orphanage kids...like i said he is game. He is assisted by elves and the wonderful tumbling boys from 2 blips ago. The kids almost explode with excitement...like i said, italian santa is in india!!!
