Santa always arrives at the same moment: midnight, when Christmas Eve turns into Christmas Day. He keeps to the night side of the Earth, flying from east to west as each country's clocks reach twelve, so every child is asleep when he lands. On the same stroke of midnight he also visits Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Aruba, Barbados, Bermuda and Bolivia.
Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is about 18 hours into his journey. By then the reindeer have already pulled the sleigh past thousands of towns, and Rudolph's nose is glowing at full brightness to light the way through the clouds.
Before Christmas Eve you can visit Santa's village any day of the year. See what he is doing right now, count down the sleeps, write him a letter, and on Christmas Eve watch his sleigh fly over your own town.
