Santa Claus

Yesterday, Alex visited Santa at the Belmont Firehouse Museum. Santa was really great – he addressed Alex by name as soon as he came around the corner, helping to dispel any notion Alex may have had about this not being the REAL Santa Claus. The firefighter garb didn't seem to bother Alex at all.

Alex asked for an electric scooter. When pressed for another choice, Alex couldn't think of anything else he wanted. Santa said that if Alex wouldn't tell him, he'd get a CHICKEN . . . to which Alex responded that he already had two, and more would be just fine.

After Alex got off Santa's lap, he said that he wanted a Transformer Construction Devastator. This is the large robot at the end of Transformers 2 that is made up of 6 other robots. It is insanely expensive, and must be a nightmare to transform. Nonetheless, I think Santa heard Alex talking about it . . . I believe I saw him taking notes.
