Santa Claus was flying around with his reindeer making his annual Christmas stops to deliver presents. While he was on his way to North Carolina he noticed that Rudolph's red nose went out. Santa looked for the nearest place that he could find and he found a small island called Bermuda. Santa and reindeer flew down and parked on top of the roof of Robinson's Marina Gas Station in Sandy's Parish.

Santa told the reindeer to wait there until he comes back with new batteries for Rudolph's nose. Santa turned on the sleigh alarm. While Santa was getting off the roof, he was thinking, "I knew I should have listened to my wife and bought the extra packet of Duracell Batteries!"

During this time, Rudolph thought of a plan to leave Santa behind to see how he would get around without them and the reindeer headed back to the North Pole.

Meanwhile, Santa came up to the counter and took out his money and gave it to the cashier. She asked him what type of money it was. The cashier started naming off a few types of bills, then Santa replied, "It's Northern money". The cashier told Santa that they don't accept this type of money so Santa pulled out his credit card and said, "Never leave home without it!!!"

The cashier gave Santa the receipt and said, "Good night!" He walked outside and turned off the alarm for the sleigh and noticed that the sleigh was not there. Santa said, "How could this be? I left the sleigh right on this roof with the alarm on, and now it's gone!!"

By now the reindeer already reached the North Pole, turned on the Satellite T.V. and were eating corn curls. They were laughing at the reaction of Santa when he noticed that the sleigh was missing. Santa knew that he should start heading towards St. George's to get to the nearest airport. Oh.......to get to the only airport in Bermuda. Santa started walking until he came to Oleander Cycles in Southampton. The cycle shop was closed but he was determined to find transportation. He saw a moped. There were no keys and Santa pulled out his favourite pen and started poking inside the key slot. The bike starts and Santa rides. He forgot that he has never ridden a motor bike before.

The bike pops up in the air and throws Santa to the ground. He gets back on the bike and starts to ride. He realises that he's riding on the wrong side of the road. He switches over to the left lane and rides on. He also does not realise that he's only going 5 mph. He rides past a couple of guys and waves to them. They say to each other, "Probably a tourist....Good evening!!." It's now about 3:00a.m.

He reaches Warwick and the bike cuts out. Santa sees a group of people. He asks one of them if he could borrow their bike. Santa thinks for a moment and remembers a book of Bermudian slang. He says, "Yo Homies! One of you guys wanna hook me up wit some killa wheels so I could get to de 'urport?" One of them decides to give him their bike because they were tired of hearing him trying to talk slang. Santa replies, "Safe! Bro!"

Santa reaches Vesey Street, Devonshire, loses control of the bike and strikes a tree. He brushes himself off, looks at the destroyed bike and walks on. He notices someone with their pony training for the upcoming race on Boxing Day. Santa walks up to the pony rider, tells the person the dilemma and asks if he could use the pony to get to the airport. At first, the rider told him that he does not trust anyone enough to take his pony, especially people dressed in red suits. So Santa bribes him saying, "You'll get a wooden rocking pony for Christmas, if you let me use this pony!" The guy grins happily and says, "I've always wanted a wooden rocking horse, since I was a little boy!! Thanks!!" Santa, gets on the pony, goes twice around the track and does a 1:4 beating the track record and rides off toward the airport.

As Santa and pony are trotting along, Santa sees a sparrow on a grassy area in Smith's (not too far from Devil's Hole). Santa slows down and looks at the bird. The bird looks back at Santa and Santa smiles. All of a sudden, the bird starts to attack Santa. Santa says to the pony, "Yah!! Go!Go! Move now!" Santa looks behind to see where the bird is and sees it sitting on the grass. Santa yells, "Looks like you're getting a lump of coal for Christmas!" and he moves on.

By now it is 5:00a.m. and Santa is near Coney Island. He is almost at the airport. The pony starts to give a tired breath and collapses to the ground. Santa is thrown off the carriage and pulls out a carrot, a bowl and a bottle of water from his pocket. He gives the pony a carrot and pours the water into the bowl. The pony starts to eat and drink and Santa thinks to himself that this might take a while.

Santa walks around Coney Island and hears a loud bike draw closer to him. Santa trips on a jump and hears the sound getting closer, then all of a sudden he sees someone taking the jump. Santa is too tired to move anywhere and the person finally sees Santa before taking the jump and says, "Move out of the way!" Santa is exhausted and just stands there. The rider makes a final effort to stay clear of Santa and ends up decking out.

Santa walks up to the bike and there is no rider so he picks up the bike and starts to ride off. Santa tries to find the rider to ask permission to borrow the bike, but the rider was no where to be found and Santa rides the bike to the airport.

Santa finally reaches the airport in St. George's and waits until the airport opens. The reindeer are still watching Santa go through all this trouble to get to the next country. Mrs. Clause hears the reindeer laughing and asks, "What's going on?" One of the reindeer look at Mrs. Clause and points towards the T.V. screen. Mrs. Clause looks at the screen and faints.

The reindeer ignore her reaction and continue looking at the T.V. It's almost time for the airport to open and Santa is getting anxious. He pulls out a packet of hot chocolate, his favourite Santa cup, a battery operated microwave and a bottle of water from his pocket. Santa puts the cup in the microwave and voila, instant hot water! Santa waits for the airport to open.

The airport finally opens and Santa is the first in line. Santa pulls out his Visa Card and pays for a ticket. Santa heads for the airplane and on the runway sees the reindeer waiting for him. Rudolph is right in front with his bright red nose. It is 6:00a.m. and still dark outside. Santa gives a big sigh, "Hmmm. It's good to see you! Do you know how much trouble it took for me to get here?" The reindeer looked at Santa and replied, "Yep, we saw it all on the big screen TV."

Santa shook his head and said, "Alright! I want to hurry up and deliver the rest of these gifts, so I can get home and watch Sesame Street!" The reindeer nod and Santa rode off to deliver the rest of the gifts.

As Santa looked down on Bermuda while passing by, he saw lights and people waving from different parts of the island. The lady from the gas station, the guy who gave Santa his bike from Warwick, the pony driver from Vesey Street, Devonshire, the bird from Smith's and even the scrambler driver in a cast from Coney Island, Hamilton Parish.

Santa yelled, "Next time I'm coming here for my vacation. Bermudians are so friendly!!"
